Reincarnation
Reincarnation Reimbodiment; specifically reinfleshment, the repeated imbodiment of the reincarnating ego in vehicles of human flesh on this earth. The unexhausted desire for earth-life draws the ego back to this globe, where it gathers to itself the material for a reincarnation and thus is finally born from a human womb. The process is repeated almost numberless times until the evolution of the inspiriting monad has reached a stage when reincarnation is no longer required. The interval between successive incarnations may be roughly estimated at 100 times the length of the preceding earth-life -- a rule obviously subject to many exceptions.

"The Encyclopedic
Theosophical Glossary is presented to the public as a work in progress. The
manuscript, produced originally in the 1930s and '40s, is currently being
revised and expanded by the Editorial Committee. Theosophical University Press
is presenting this working version online because, even in its present
unfinished form, we feel that the contents will be of value to students of
theosophical literature, particularly of the works of H. P. Blavatsky. "
