And how can Martinus&#8217; analyses give us a logical explanation of reincarnation and the mystery of consciousness? In this episode, Mary McGovern and Pernilla Rosell meet S\u00f6ren Grind, a licensed psychologist and author of four books on spiritual psychology, to talk about his book <em>Reincarnation: A Logical and Loving Perspective on Life,<\/em> which has recently been published in English.<\/p>\n<p>In his book, S\u00f6ren Grind shares case stories and reflections from his own practical experience, along with current research on consciousness, near-death experiences and other spiritual experiences.<\/p>\n<p>In this episode, we reflect on what a psychology based om spirituality can mean for people who are searching for meaning in their lives. We also discuss recent research on near-death experiences and how these experiences affect people, as well as how the development of individual talents can be understood from a reincarnation perspective.<\/p>\n<p>This episode is the first in a series of podcasts in which Mary, S\u00f6ren and Pernilla will reflect on various aspects of spiritual psychology, using S\u00f6ren&#8217;s new book as inspiration. In coming episodes, we will talk about sleep, dreams and the unconscious; life crises; illness and healing; love as the keynote of the universe, and much more.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Links:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>S\u00f6ren Grind (2025).\u00a0<em>Reincarnation: A Logical and Loving Perspective on Life<\/em><\/p>\n<p>The book is available as an <a href=\"https:\/\/books2read.com\/u\/bzlkBn\">e-book from various retailers here<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Also in English paperback from Danish bookshops, for example from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bog-ide.dk\/produkt\/6111239\/a-logical-and-loving-perspective-on-life-reincarnation-a-logical-and-loving-perspective-on-life-haeftet\/3433453\">Bog &amp; id\u00e9.<\/a><\/p>\n<p>S\u00f6ren Grind&#8217;s books are presented on <a href=\"https:\/\/sorengrind.com\/en\/english\/\">his website.<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Interview with Pim van Lommel by Jens Christian Hermansen on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=2OGtxV0a6f8\">the Martinus Institute&#8217;s YouTube channel<\/a><\/p>\n<p>More information about Martinus and his works on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.martinus.dk\/en\/\">the Martinus Institute&#8217;s website<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>How can the idea of reincarnation inspire us to see meaning and coherence in our lives?
