    Interesting way of putting all this words with a cognate. But why Life-Reincarnation and not Resurrection?

    • Kurt Philip Behm

      It's an interesting question, Roberto. To me, resurrection means returning in the same form you were before. Reincarnation can take any life form. Both would work for different reasons.

      Thanks

        If you're a Christian, resurrection means transformation and glorification. And if you are from an Eastern religion, it means being free from sansara, the circle of birth and rebirth. Yes, reincarnation can take any life form depending the karma you and the previous life. Just a thought. I teach religion and philosophy, LOL!

          I majored in Philosophy and Theology at a Jesuit School—Small world 🙂
