In the mind of the man next door or walking down the street, the one enmired in ignorance of his or her real nature. Better he or she thinks they will reincarnate than the total blindness of thinking consciousness ends forever after bodily death. >Krishna himself endorses the rebirth when arjuna asked what happens to the >seeker who dies before he achieved lliberation.

This is the place from which I was answering, from one who does not know their true nature. For one such, there is reincarnation. Thank you again for raising the discussion "up" a notch.
