“By experiencing the trial of a new existence.” -Spirits’ Book
Reincarnation’s main purpose is to allow us to grow in love, and forgiveness by experiencing new challenges and trials. It also gives us the opportunity to redeem ourselves from wrongs we did in past. Hence, God’s justice is perfect.
EXPLORE LESSON:
This class can be played at the same time teens will be playing Reincarnation Department
Explain the cycle of reincarnation from previous lessons
Have kids wear a costume, and they then enter the circle of reincarnation one by one
A volunteer will be walking the circle with the kids saying the story of their life.
For example, you are a queen: You were born in a big palace, The kid walks to the next phase, When you were a child you had an endless amount of toys. You could never play with all of them etc.
At the end of the cycle, their guardian angel (Another volunteer) will ask:
[Queen’s name], what did you do with all the talents you have received?
[Queen’s name], what type of charitable actions have you done?
[Queen’s name], what have you learned in this reincarnation?
[Queen’s name], who have you loved?
[Queen’s name], what are the things you think you can improve?
In the end, the guardian angel will say:
Let us see all the good actions you did throughout your life
Let us see what are the things you need to improve
Guardian angel then says:
You will be reborn as [….] because then you will have the opportunity to practice [….]
or
You will be reborn as the King because now you will be able to govern and rule your country with more compassion
In the end, all students go to the “Reincarnation Department” where the teens will be presenting the new reincarnation plan of a spirit
