Best Books about karma and reincarnation
Ranked #1,086 in Culture & Society, #26,140 overall
Most popular books about rebirth and karma
Learn about karma and reincarnation from the perspective of Buddhism, Theosophy and Hinduism. But also based on the science of past life memories of children and regression.
I could not resist putting a video on VHS up as well. John Algeo explains the deeper philosophical aspects of reincarnation so well it would be a shame to miss it, merely because it's not a book.
The most popular books with readers of this lens come first. More academic books follow.
Shown here is the authoritative Exploring Reincarnation: The Classic Guide to the Evidence for Past-Life Experiences

This book goes into Buddhist thought and the concepts around karma and rebirth to put all the pieces together. Yes, something reincarnates - but no, it's not an (eternal) soul.

Ah, this man and his wife will be the vindication of the Theosophical Society... Sorry, could not help but digress.
Seriously though: here's an author that takes the best in current day physics and combines it with a thorough insight of the wisdom tradition. And the result is not just great reading, but also thought provoking, original, and likely true.

- Karma is that inherent ingredient of cosmic system which facilitates movement from one manifestation to another... from one body to next! Life in cosmic system belongs to our soul atman... the spirit within! Every soul atman manifests human body to work out it's karma... remove dross impurities within! From first manifestation to last... 8.4 millionth manifestation... effort of every soul atman remains regaining its lost original pure prime pristine primordial form at the earliest!
The moment complete dross impurities within soul atman removed... human beings reached stage of enlightenment (kaivalya jnana) and finally salvation (moksha)! Manifestation after manifestation... body of body human beings are expected to negate presence of karma in the body! Our soul atman... the spirit within is absolute master and controller of human form. It is not within the capability of human body to manifest a soul atman!

But though personalities ever shift, the one line of life along which they are strung like beads, runs unbroken. . . .
