Friends, Happy New Year! Here’s the second in the series of episodes on How To Live in 2022. The first, AEWCH 175, was with occult scholar Mitch Horowitz. There are more secular (or, uh, as secular as we get on this show) episodes coming up, but before we leave for those comforting shores, let’s spend some time with the realm of the dead and the reborn. Why does reincarnation matter, as a reality, as a lens, as standpoint? Here are my reflections on the radical promise of reincarnation and how it can help us navigate our lives. CH

SHIOW NOTES

WHAT BOOK YOU SHOULD READ? Reincarnation and Karma: Two Fundamental Truths of Human Existence by Rudolf Steiner has so much of what’s in this episode, and it’s also a relatively easy one of his to start with.

WHAT OTHER AEWCH EPISODE YOU SHOULD LISTEN TO? There’s a lot of overlap between this episode and AEWCH 150: THE SPIRITUAL POLITICS OF THE DEAD

WHAT SHOULD YOU LOOK INTO FURTHER? If you’d like reincarnation from a different angle – evidence presented by science – Dr. Ian Stevenson has done compelling work. Here’s a good place to start instead of diving into his literally voluminous body of research: an interview with him in the New York Times from 1999, “Conversations/Dr. Ian Stevenson; You May Be Reading This In Some Future Past Life”.
