KIPLING & REINCARNATION

Rudyard Kipling, who may have been a reincarnationist, believed, above all things, that in the scheme of things "the door is shut" or "the door is completely shut"...he means that when a human being's soul is reborn into a new body that there is no recollection and no vestiges of a past life or lives typically...you start anew with no recollection of any past...but I believe the past life of a soul shapes the new life that soul is born in to thus...the challenges and the gifts that one gets within a new life are determined by the previous life that that soul in fact had...one's actions determine one's destiny and one's fortune...and the door is always shut towards the past, and the person's past is a complete secret...MJB
