The Reincarnationist Papers

Product Information

For as long as I can remember, I have been fascinated by the idea of previous lives and reincarnation. I went into this book knowing only that it had to do with past lives, and didn't really read the description beyond that. I was a little lost when I first started reading, not sure if the book started with the Author's Note or the first notebook, but the story unfolded really well, if a bit boringly. Actually, since this has been made into a movie coming out later this year, I thought it made a better movie than book.

Screenwriter: Ian Shorr; screen story by Todd Stein, based on the book The Reincarnationist Papers, by D. Eric Maikranz What happens to the psyche of a person who has lived (and continues to live) a multitude of lifetimes? Fans of movies about immortal warriors like The Old Guard, Highlander, and Marvel's Eternals may find Infinite a bit confusing since it isn't the same physical character who continues throughout time, just their souls in new bodies, necessitating different actors to play them once they reincarnate. Infinite can also be a headscratcher because of the way the movie presents the main characters' lives and when the events of the film take place. Fleming, Mike Jr. (April 14, 2020).

There are some attempts at deep thinking where the character has discussions about whether the Reincarnationists are divine, or, at least, kind of divine. None of this was really deep. Most of it was mildly insulting to the thinking capacity of anyone who takes spiritual issues seriouslyThere are a couple of books that this reminds me of. Steven Brust has a couple of books called "The Incrementalists" which involve personal survival by a small group of people able to implant their psyches into the minds of other people (who are than suppressed.)
