Maybe reincarnation means the soul or spirit of a person at death,
taking on the body of another, and being reincarnated again based on
one's accumulated karma - */a central tenet of Indian religions/*.
The typical thing seems to be there is some special something in you
that survives death of the body and somehow re-inhabits another body
later on, but I have never bought that explanation. I have always
thought it had to do with how the mind fragments experience, that is
reincarnation - embodiment - is something that happens in real time
now, something that breaks the unity of experience into separate
embodied pieces each of which, to the viewpoint of the mind, has a
beginning, a birth, and an ending, a death.

This is just speculation. We know that metempsychosis happens because
Barry and Rama both experienced it on several occasions and remembered
several of their previous incarnations, so we have the advantage of
verbal testimony - one guy still living in Leiden.
