Review # 1 was written on 2009-04-14 00:00:00 Melanie Chaput A great primer that you can dip in and out of at your leisure. This book looks first at mythology as the earliest explanations of reincarnation, with sections of the book devoted to each culture's symbolism or belief system. Reminiscent of Jung's Man and His Symbols, but on a slightly deeper level. I liked it because I enjoy being able to pick up a book like this that tackles a deep subject, and not be overwhelmed by some pragmatic, academic explanation. It's very accessible in terms of being able to read an excerpt, put the book back on the shelf, and come back later when you'd like a new perspective on the same teaching.

Review # 2 was written on 2008-01-26 00:00:00 Craig Corrigan Collects writings, mostly brief exerpts, on reincarnation from different cultures and times, East and West; also the compilers write about the symbols used to represent rebirth and reincarnation, objections to the concept, etc.
