Synopsis

Reincarnation consists of eleven essays which elucidate the subtle and profound conception of rebirth and explain its practical implications for daily living. "Reincarnation" by W.Q. Judge provides a lucid presentation of the Theosophical teaching, and "What Reincarnates?" by Robert Crosbie resolves recurring misunderstandings concerning the subject. "Mysteries of After-Life" by H.P. Blavatsky is a masterful exposition of post-mortem states and conditions which exhibit the compelling logic of reincarnation.

K.S. Lakshminarayan's "Reincarnation and Silence" links speech, silence and creativity to show how fundamental transformations in consciousness are possible. "The Myth of Er" by Plato and "Within the Circle" by Lafcadio Hearn are classic stories which contain clues to the moral and spiritual significance of reincarnation. Shankaracharya's "Bondage and Deliverance" succinctly conveys how the soul becomes trapped in time and limitation and how it can transcend them. John Masefield's notable poem "A Creed" is followed by R.F. Goudey's stimulating compilation of the "Poetry of Reincarnation".

"The Circle of Transformation" by D.K. Mavalankar sets the logic of rebirth within a vast and recondite metaphysical framework, and "The Lone Disciple" offers a telling example of the enormous significance of reincarnation in the spiritual odyssey of a seeker of truth.
