Reincarnation is known as the rebirth of the soul. Is this real-real?
The only person who actually knows what happens after we die is someone who is now dead. Assuming there is life after death. Since I myself am alive, I cannot tell you what happens at death. But I choose to believe in the Buddhist concept of rebirth because it makes sense to me and gives me comfort. But belief is not knowledge. It is merely preference. And there is no living person who knows what happens when we die.
Reincarnation is a theory, as well as death. What dies, so to speak, in a clinical sense, is the body. However, you are not there to experience death, so the notion of death is rather arbitrary. Reincarnation is another arbitrary notion, as it doesn’t really seem to matter if one reincarnated, or not. The same goes for the afterlife. No one will ever know. Such ideas are but fantasies are generated by the continuity of thought, and are thus better to be ignored, or just regarded as interesting ideas.
