Tahukah mang Ucup, bahwa juga dalam kepercayaan Yahudi ada re-
inkarnasi? Jadi bukan hanya dalam ajaran Buddha dan Hindu?

Ini saya kutip tulisan  Zalman M. Schachter dalam "Reincarnation in 
Judaism":  

REINCARNATION: 

     Nothing new can be gained in heaven. The quantity of mitzvot 
(deeds or blessings) and Torah acquired by the time of death is what 
remains with a person after death. In heaven one can gain only a 
deeper and richer understanding of his life on earth. It is for this 
reason that souls, once they have absorbed all that heaven has to 
offer, apply for reincarnation, i.e. in order to attain further 
perfection. Reincarnation is also granted to allow the soul to bring 
about a restitution of the wrongs it has committed. 

     Some souls are so filled with the light of knowledge and the 
warmth of compassion however, that the heavenly court, the "supernal 
familia,"," will engage in all kinds of ruses in order to reinvolve 
it in the work of saving and helping other souls still on the earthly 
plane. Reincarnation is an option at any point--after Gehenna, after 
the lower paradise, or even after the upper paradise. The process 
repeats until a soul has built its spiritual body. ..

mang, perhatikanlah kalimat "Some souls are so filled with the light 
of knowledge and the warmth of compassion however, that the heavenly 
court, the "supernal familia,"," will engage in all kinds of ruses in 
order to reinvolve it in the work of saving and helping other souls 
still on the earthly plane.".

Ini adalah sangat mirip dengan konsep "Bodhisatwa", yang adalah jiwa 
yang mencapai pencerahan, dan kembali kedunia, untu mencerahkan 
mahluk hidup (melalui reinkarnasi).

bagaimana pendapat mang Ucup?
