Metempsihoza – ipoteză sau realitate

Abstract

The doctrine of metempsychosis is one of the oldest of the human race. It means the transmigration of the soul, especially the passage of the soul after death from a human or animal to some other human or animal body. The essence of Metempsychosis, Reincarnation, or Transmigration of Souls doctrine is the survival of the individual soul after it passes from the physical body in death and its reembodiment in a physical body by rebirth after a sojourn in the resting place of the souls. It has always been a cardinal doctrine in the religions of the Orient, and during the past twenty-five years has attained a wonderful revival of popularity among the thinkers of the Occident. Of all the theories respecting the origin of the soul, Metempsychosis seems to me the most plausible and therefore the one most likely to throw light on the question of the life to come.
