If you think your life is just a temporary existence then what's the point and does anything really matter? If you think your life is permanent then it all matters, including how you evolve going into the future.

The temporary is a physical lifetime.

There is a permanence about us. So do we have more than one lifetime? It depends...

If you descend here for the purpose of experiencing here and you own those experiences as wisdom and leave nothing 'unfinished', then there's obviously no need to return here. But the experiences here are emotional and if not owned as wisdom, then the unresolved emotion wraps up inside you as 'genetic karma'. This karma is why your Soul pushes you back here to finish the job.

Some of us have been here a 1000 times trying to complete the journey...

Reincarnation verifies our permanance and that we exist in a 'body-less' state in between lifetimes..

If you remove all historical references to reincarnation and give people a judgmental God instead; then you have a fearful, enslaved race.

There's freedom in knowing you live on after your body dies and that you'll probably re-emerge in your own family because they are a 'pool' match for your genetic karma.

Now here's the problem: MEMORIES.

How does a newborn baby cope with the memories of your previous life? In short – it doesn't! So your memories of unresolved emotion are stripped away in the Light and your wisdom is keep in the vault (your Soul). The baby can now learn from its new environment and be unaware when your soul is nudging it to capture more wisdom.

So if you go down the reincarnation route, you lose your memory. Any yet your Soul will push you down that route because it has an agenda for its own completion. But what if you just want to retain your precious memories and you don't neccesarily want to return here?
