It shouldn't be too difficult to understand reincarnation. But first it is important to understand the body and mind.

off the internet

What we accept as our body... is constantly changing. From childhood to youth to old age and then when it is useless and worn out... death. But through all the changes we remain the same conscious entity simply experiencing these changes of the external mind and body.

In a child's body we also have the mind of a child. In a youth's we have the mind of a youth. In an adult's body we have an adult's mind, and so on. But, we the conscious being are the same and simply going for the ride, so to speak, and experiencing these changes of body and mind.

At death we leave the body and enter another body to start all over again. This is happening to all living beings. The dogs, cats, birds, bugs, trees, plants... just different bodies for a little while going through changes.

The type of body we get depends on our consciousness. It may not be a human body. It may be an animal body. Or even a tree or plant body. Or it is possible to get a spiritual body and end the cycle of reincarnation altogether. A very desireable end indeed. For the end of one thing is always the beginning of something else.

The question may then arise. Why don't I remember previous lifetimes? Our remembering capabilities are not all that good. Even in this body as old age approaches people's memory fades. As the body begins to fail so does the mind and memory. Even in youth, never, mind old age, it may not be possible for a young person to remember exactly what they were doing at a certain time just a few days earlier.

So if we can understand how we are not this mind and body which are always changing it is not very difficult to understand that there is reincarnation, a new body is formed, when the present body reaches it's final change, death.
