Hello. I understand well that we do not have all the lore and answers we would like. This post is me posing a question to those well versed in the existing lore, and who are experienced in educated guessing / speculation in the realm of MO - particularly I have @Tuhtram and @Najwalaylah in mind.
Do you think Reincarnation is canon?
I'd love to hear any and all information that others are able to find (canon) or speculate (non-canon). Cheers.
Do you think Reincarnation is canon?
- Defining Reincarnation:
- A creatures spirit/soul/consciousness leaving it's mortal body and entering another, presumably at the birth of a child.
- In the new body, could retain knowledge from previous lives, or not. Would resemble previous lives in general mannerisms and reflex.
- A creatures spirit/soul/consciousness leaving it's mortal body and entering another, presumably at the birth of a child.
- Gods are canon in MO.
- What is the extent of their power?
- How is their existence classified in terms of power scaling or dimensional property?
- For example, in real life, the earth and how we experience the world is 3D along the 4th axis (space, and time).
- There is a theory that our minds and ability to think are 5D, & that we are part of a hive mind entity that has dominion over space-time.
- This is but one theory of an infinite amount, loosely backed by theoretical quantum physics.
- How is their existence classified in terms of power scaling or dimensional property?
- Gods could be behind reincarnation.
- What is the extent of their power?
- Magic is canon in MO.
- We have a lot of interesting magic in the MO world.
- As deeply described by Mats in various old posts, magic is inherent and present in all things, with Alvarin being more attuned to it.
- Magic could be responsible for reincarnation.
- We have a lot of interesting magic in the MO world.
- Defining Manifestation:
- The ability to influence or create events or things by willing them into existence with sheer belief / will power.
- The idea is that everything is one, if you zoom out enough. Or in.
- Touched on by Mats perspective of magic, or the aforementioned Dimensional theory, and that all living things are sort of a hive mind.
- That means that what each living thing thinks or does, influences the whole, to some degree.
- With enough energy pushed into a thought or feeling, its influence is emboldened. Likewise, more people contributing to the idea has the same effect.
- With enough influence, manifestation is the phenomena of a thing coming into existence.
- The idea is that everything is one, if you zoom out enough. Or in.
- The ability to influence or create events or things by willing them into existence with sheer belief / will power.
- Gods and Magic are canon, as mentioned above in the Reincarnation section.
- Either of these things could explain Manifestation at some level.
- With magic being inherent to all things (canon), it is implied that at a certain threshold of magical capability one would gain influence over everything.
- With gods being canon, they could listen or watch, and enact manifestation manually, as if watching a show, rewarding followers, or punishing others.
- Either of these things could explain Manifestation at some level.
I'd love to hear any and all information that others are able to find (canon) or speculate (non-canon). Cheers.
