The contemporary Science on Rebirth:
Rebirth is IMHO scientifically well documented by 60 years of rigorous
research mostly by the late professor Ian Stevenson of Virginia
University:
http://www.healthsystem.virginia.edu/internet/personalitystudies/
Consciousness is not continuous, but a series of discrete ultra-short
moments.
This entails that one is "reborn" millions of times per second with each
re-arising
of a new moment of consciousness! Also after the 'death' moment does
consciousness
rearise! Life is -in fact- therefore not a single shot, but a
chain-reaction of rebirths!
