The metaphysical framework positing that souls incarnate repeatedly, learning and evolving through multiple lifetimes. In Reincarnation Theory, death is not the end but a graduation—a transition between lessons. Birth is not a beginning but an enrollment—the soul entering a new classroom with new lessons, new challenges, new opportunities. The circumstances of each life—family, body, talents, struggles—are not random but chosen (or assigned) based on what the soul needs to learn. Karma is not punishment but pedagogy—the natural consequence of actions, guiding the soul toward greater wisdom and compassion. Reincarnation Theory explains the apparent injustice of life (it's not unjust, just incomprehensible within one lifetime), the diversity of human experience (souls are at different stages), and the sense that we've been here before (we have). It's the framework for those who experience life as school, not prison.
Example: "She'd always been drawn to ancient Egypt—not as a tourist but as a homecoming. Reincarnation Theory explained it: she'd lived there before, in another life, and the memories lingered as interests, affinities, unexplained knowledge. She wasn't imagining it; she was remembering, dimly, across the veil of death and birth. The feeling of recognition was real recognition."
