transmigration of souls or metempsychosis[mutem´´sukO´sis] Pronunciation Key [Gr.,=change of soul], a belief common to many cultures, in which the soul passes from one body to another, either human, animal, or inanimate.
The belief in transmigration was rare in ancient Egypt, although occasional instances occur of a soul uniting with a god, a soul entering an animal for a lifetime, or a voluntary metamorphosis of a person into another form for his own benefit.
Jewish treatment of metempsychosis, as found in the kabbalah, was limited by the need to conform to orthodox scriptures, and the theory of transmigration was tolerated rather than approved.

 East Timor Alert: Stop Transmigration! (Human Rights Watch, 20-9-1999)

There are many misconceptions about reincarnation, and one of the most common is that people reincarnate as animals or insects.
Reincarnation is the belief that the soul of man survives death and returns to be born into another physical body—a human body.

 CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Eschatology
It was this belief which, at the degenerate stage at which he encountered it, Herodotus mistook for the doctrine of the transmigration of souls.
It should be added that the identification of the blessed with Osiris ("Osiris N. N." is a usual form of inscription) did not, at least in the earlier and higher stage of Egyptian religion, imply pantheistic absorption in the deity or the loss of individual personality.
On the other hand, there is no trace as yet of the dreary doctrine of transmigration, but critics profess to discover the germs of later pantheism.

The World Bank lucidly explains the effects of such population transfers while describing the effects of the transmigration of the majority Kinh in the Northern and Central Highlands of Vietnam.

Similarly, West Papuans have become victims of transmigration of the majority Javanese.

 Origen of Alexandria [Internet Encyclopedia of Philosophy]
Since the purpose of this article is to introduce students and interested laypersons to the philosophy of Origen, it will be necessary to focus mainly on the treatise On First Principles, which is the most systematic and philosophical of Origen's numerous writings.
In this work Origen establishes his main doctrines, including that of the Holy Trinity (based upon standard Middle Platonic triadic emanation schemas); the pre-existence and fall of souls; multiple ages and transmigration of souls; and the eventual restoration of all souls to a state of dynamic perfection in proximity to the godhead.
He is unique among Platonists of his era for introducing history into his cosmological and metaphysical speculations, and his insistence on the absolute freedom of each and every soul, thereby denying the fatalism that so often found its way into the more esoteric teachings of the various philosophical and mystery schools of his day.
