Can Reincarnation Explain Unfinished Lives?

[Lolita]

Belief in rebirth offers comfort to those who feel life ends too soon. But does it hold philosophical weight or just emotional appeal? If memories fade, does a reborn soul truly remain the same person?

Reincarnation is a theory that God is born as a human so that he can live among humans and save the humanity from evil. Every reincarnation has a purpose and it is fulfilled. However, for humans it is called rebirth, and rebirth is connected with karma?

 

[Lolita]

I in many traditions, reincarnation and rebirth are connected but framed differently. Reincarnation often refers to divine beings returning intentionally, with a specific purpose, like restoring balance or guiding humanity. Human rebirth is seen as the continuation of the soul influenced by karma, the accumulated actions that shape circumstances, lessons, and the nature of each new life. It’s less purposeful than divine incarnations, more about growth and consequence.

In many traditions reincarnation and rebirth are seen differently. I think reincarnation often involves a divine purpose, like God returning to guide or protect, whereas human rebirth is linked to karma and lessons. Rebirth is more about consequences, growth, and spiritual evolution, while divine reincarnation serves a broader cosmic or moral role.
