Discussion If you learned reincarnation was real, what would you like to be in your next life? (regardless of CTB)

[Contraband]

Ok hear me out but a fly

Just think about it right, you have no consciousness so no thoughts nothing just getting to whiz around as a fly. And unlike a bird or any other flying animal that may die some horrific death as prey, they don't feel pain so no risk there. And yes you may be thinking "but fly's are gross" but you have no consciousness to perceive that therefore u won't know or care as a fly. And they end up dying in like a week or so anyways so not like ur stuck as one for the rest of eternity.

I love getting asked this question and am very passionate about my fly and answer lol.

I have like 5-10 animals that I love that I would pick but I totally made this argument as a joke with somebody a couple of weeks ago! Based on the short lifespan lol

 

[ctbcat]

a life where i get to be with him in person, alive together. a life where my love actually goes somewhere, even if it's not reciprocated.

 

[SecretAgent420]

Myself as a girl, probably.

Cute

 

[hematomatema]

Probably a person again. Most people are happy, it's just I'm not. My experience sucks but the human experience as a whole is fucking amazing.

Also as a girl. Seems fun.

 

[Edpal247]

A seal in Antactica. Few predators there.

Non-animal answer: A long lived trees in remote Australia.

 

[J1214]

I'd like to be reincarnated as either a dog, or a cat.

If I had to be reincarnated as a human once more I hope the life I lead will be much better than the one I have now.

 

[Manfrotto99]

As human. Rich, attractive, intelligent and raised in healthy family. That would be dream. If not then something live plant or animal with no sense of pain.

As human. Rich, attractive, intelligent and raised in healthy family - this is exactly the thing I would like to - the total opposite of what I got in this life

 

[N33dT0D13]

I would literally die to be reincarnated as a puppy in a big happy home and I get to run and play and bite stuff and I get attention all the time and can be as over the top with affection as I want and it's not weird please I would kill myself right now if I knew for a fact that I'd be a cute happy puppy in my next life please please pleeeeeaaaaase

 

[etherealspring]

id be a housecat. just eat and sleep all day. i already do that anyway, but at least it would be more acceptable if im a cat

 

[Imagined_Euphoria]

A beautiful girl from a rich family. That alone has a good chance of making at least the first 20 years of life so much easier.

 

[happynot]

Ι think a jellyfish and swim in the oceans....

 

[mpk]

As a healthy boy with a normal loving family in rural Japan

 

[chronicdissosiation]

i have a deep fascination with birds and always found myself connecting with them in a way. lol i would be a bird of prey considering i wouldnt want to die so easily if i was reincarnated as one

 

[like-spoiledmilk]

"I'd like to be a jellyfish
It's a dream of mine, my only wish"

 

[SoulWhisperer]

I'd be a cat and I wouldn't complain. Lazy life, no expectations, jumping around and meowing. No work, no job, no pay, absolutely easy life...

 

[ThisIsMe1357]

I would like to try experiencing a human life again, on this planet, maybe even in the same country, just without certain current problems I have. I would consider it to be just one more attempt after reaching a checkpoint.

 

[bluepotato]

As a healthy human , in a healthy family, in Japan loving baseball and able to interact and engage with people

 

[Opera]

A house cat or bird. I honestly just want to be cared for and not worry about things.

 

[Jon Arbuckle]

anything. literally anything at all. any animal, any human no matter how miserable or worse their life is, I would at least be free of guilt. I can't take the horrible things I've done.

 

[JustHere1]

I've been told I'm a cambion genetically, so a willful shapeshifter, but my base state human. It fits well with what I've felt throughout my life and that identification makes sense to me. I refuse to be 'recycled' into a new body - I want my Self and only my Self, and then I'm done.

 

[toxicjester]

I'd want to be a harp seal right next to my mama

Maybe one in an aquarium so I'm always taken care of

 

[nomoredolor]

i would honestly be so devastated

I guess I would want to be a capybara
Or a well loved cat

Anna

 

[ShatteredSerenity]

I came close to having a happy life, so I'd rather be reincarnated into a human with similar circumstances, but maybe I'd be better off in a European country with better social services. I definitely want no more mental illness or family trauma. It could be interesting to try a life as a girl, although after raising 2 girls I know it's not a walk in the park. Still, my personality was more aligned with femininity.

 

[Loaf of bread]

A waterfowl bird, like a duck or goose. All the movement; Sea, land, and sky!

 

[CogitoMori]

A dog. I wouldn't have to talk and all the qualities, like clinginess, that people hate in me they'd love in a loyal animal

I would dedicate all my time to destroy all life on this planet so reincarnation would be impossible.

This assumes life doesn't exist on other planets and that our "souls" are limited to one celestial surface

 

[SoulWhisperer]

A rich mentally stable Japanese woman for sur, but like, very very rich. Paired with being mentally stable I think that's gonna be the ultimate combo to avoid repeating my life, which is the opposite of what I just described basically.

 

[oneeyed]

Either as Tony Stark so can be a billionaire genius with supermodel girlfriends and make an Ironman suit so as I can beat the living shit out of everyone who wronged me.

Or

A hyper intelligent and advanced extraterrestrial visiting Earth and messing with these pathetic little earthlings with the occasional anal probing

 

[atrophy]

As an antinatalist who believes being born is the greatest suffering, I wish and hope that there would be no reincarnation for me at least.

I think every living being would suffer at one point. If there is no choice then I would want to be an inanimate object with no brain to think and no perception to pain.

Maybe a twinkling star that people unable to sleep would want to look at night.

 

[onetimereject]

I'd like to unsubscribe, i shouldn't exist in any form.

 

[Yonlux]

I would like to be born as a very handsome Japanese man, rich and being a successful politician and being able to help people.
