Oh, I didn't know there was a reference book on reincarnation... I thought it was an opinion, lol

Reincarnation is not luck of the draw, it rewards righteous people.

When my mother passing - I read this book to her. It is a beautifully illustrated book that didn't require a lot of presence. It is suitable for anyone of any age who loves the mysteries of life and has an interest in Buddhist philosophy.

Mom lived her life as a pretend Christian - it was her social club. In late life she suffered from a Christian apostasy and felt like a hypocrite -she didn't believe in the stories and rituals of the high churches of Christianity, in which she had participated. I assured her that the truth of the universe didn't care about dogma. Whatever we imagine is possible - maybe even likely - at the end of our life. Given the reality of time space that "instant" at which we end our time here could conceivably last for eternity.

The story of The Mountains of Tibet is a great vision for anyone who will be living for a while in in our plane of existence now or even leaving it soon.
