"Cauldron of Poesy" RESURRECTION AND REINCARNATION M.M.NINAN This idea is also echoed in the teaching attributed to Amergin in the "Cauldron of Poesy" materials: "Where is the root of poetry in a person; in the body or in the soul? They say it is in the soul, for the body does nothing without the soul. Others say it is in the body where the arts are learned, passed through the bodies of our ancestors. It is said this is the seat of what remains over the root of poetry; and the good knowledge in every person's ancestry comes not into everyone, but comes into every other person." - translation by Erynn Laurie Irish Druids And Old Irish Religions by James Bonwick [1894] (http://www.sacred-texts.com/pag/idr/idr14.htm) ""Irish transmigration," remarks O'Beirne Crowe, "means the soul's passing from man into other animals--man and all subordinate animals included. This is Irish transmigration, called by the Greeks, transformation of one body into another, while the Gaulish is transmigration of a soul into the body of another human being." He adds--"But is this transformation a Druidic doctrine? Most certainly not; it is purely Pythagorean, and must have for many centuries preceded Druidism in this strange land of ours." Transmigration being found in Ireland, has led some to assert their conviction that Buddhist missionaries conveyed it thither. The Soc. des Antiquiaires de France had an article, from the pen of Coquebert-Montbret, advancing this opinion, relying upon the known ardour and extensive proselytism of early Buddhist missionaries. He knows the Irish deity Budd or Budwas, and asks if that be not Buddha. In the Hebrides, spirits are called Boduchs, and the same word is applied to all heads of families, as the Master. The Druids were, says one, only an order of Eastern priests, located in Britain, adoring Buddwas. Anderson Smith, in his Lewisiana, writes reluctantly--"we must accept the possibility of a Buddhist race passing north from Ireland." This means, that Ireland is to be 19
RESURRECTION AND REINCARNATION M.M.NINAN regarded as the source of so many Buddhist significations which are discovered on the west of Scotland, and in the Hebrides." Most scholars believe that this concept came from Pythagorean School. Celts, Karma and <strong>Reincarnation</strong> gives the following description: (http://www.summerlands.com/crossroads/library/celts_and_karma.html) Celtic Beliefs in Spirit "Another common belief in the continuity of spirit, was for the spirit of the departed to enter into stones or trees. This is often told about two lovers who die, have a tree spring from their graves and eventually re-unite with one another as intertwined branches, wooden objects, or even Ogham staves. The story of Baile and Aillinn is one such tale. These two lovers became a Yew and an Apple tree after their deaths. Eventually Ogham staves were made from their woods. When the staves were presented to the king at Tara, they sprang together and were kept in the treasure room from that day forward. The fate of Deirdre and Naoise is another tale of ill-fated love. Two pines grew from their graves, intertwining together, never to be parted." 20
