Key Notes
The ongoing process by which people enter embodied lives, forget former selves and the spiritual realm, yet retain buried past-life memory in the soul that poetry can reawaken.
A cycle in which consciousness escapes back to the spiritual after death and may return much later.
The belief that Frank continues through new bodies, tied here to Eva and incestuous reproduction.
He explains innocent suffering through an occult framework in which each soul arrives with a telos, can be diverted from it by worldly conditioning, and reincarnates rather than ending at bodily death.
Memories do not come only from personal experience; personal experience lets a person enter dialogue with the universe and absorb memories from elsewhere.
Jiang uses Buddhist and Hindu reincarnation as a model for wisdom: souls assume many roles through pain and suffering until empathy produces enlightenment.
Beautiful poetic language reawakens memory because human beings are always in a process of reincarnation.
Jiang says embodied life permits experiences unavailable in the formless spiritual realm, including sex, pain, and love.
In Jiang's reincarnation model, memories of former selves and the spiritual realm are lost so that people can actually live the lives they live.
Jiang defines the soul as the forever memory of all one's lives and one's connection to the spiritual.
The secret of the universe is immortality, reincarnation, and godhood, powered by love and imagination; most people will fail, but consciousness is forever.
