Reincarnations—One Life Is Not Enough

571.03Thus, in our world, there are no new souls the way bodies are renewed, but only a certain amount of souls that incarnate on the wheel of transformation of the form, for each time they clothe a new body and a new generation (Baal HaSulam, “The Peace“).

Question: There is a certain number of souls in the world that have been constantly reincarnating for thousands of years. How many are there?

Answer: It does not matter, it can be five or ten thousand or billions. They are constantly dividing and connecting. We see that the number of people in the world is growing so there is a correspondence between the number of souls and the number of bodies.

Comment: But Baal HaSulam says that there is a certain number of souls (only a certain amount of souls that incarnate). Yet we see that over the past hundred years the number of people in the world has doubled.

My Response: They divided among themselves.

Question: Does it mean that a soul is some kind of unfixed state?

Answer: Yes, it is some kind of energy charge, form, and desire that can be divided into many different desires.

The benefit of the interruption between incarnations is that a person begins a new existence in order to change one’s nature and structure and, in general, his final purpose.

But one life is not enough for this. Tens or hundreds of lifetimes are required because the soul itself does nothing but communicate with other souls, and therefore it moves through various states.
