On Reincarnation

Consciousness is a single phenomena. There is no individual "soul" that moves about or transmigrates. There is no real "movement", whether through time or space. It is more accurately described as varying concentration levels. Concentration in both mental and physical senses, as both are two sides of the same phenomena.

Consider being in a crowded room where many conversations are simultaneously taking place. One may, without any physical movement, eavesdrop upon any one of those conversations simply through the shifting of focus. The din of the room is consciousness and each separate conversation is an individual "life". Self is shifting focus within the unified field of consciousness. Each "individual" experience is just a different perspective of the unified "din" of consciousness.

Through meditation one begins to learn how to shift the perspective. Thought-free awareness is focus on the entirety of the din of the room, which is pure consciousness. At this point further introspection reveals Self. This is the point (singularity) where the focused and the focuser merge into__________.
