Analogous Concepts
The spiritual teacher Meher Baba held that one engages in a life review process after dying, with the lessons learned from this review becoming part of one's intuition in subsequent incarnations: "The truths absorbed by the mind in the life after death become in the next incarnation a part of the inborn wisdom. Developed intuition is consolidated and compressed understanding distilled through a multitude of diverse experiences gathered in previous lives."

Famous quotes containing the words analogous and/or concepts:
“The triumphs of peace have been in some proximity to war. Whilst the hand was still familiar with the sword-hilt, whilst the habits of the camp were still visible in the port and complexion of the gentleman, his intellectual power culminated; the compression and tension of these stern conditions is a training for the finest and softest arts, and can rarely be compensated in tranquil times, except by some analogous vigor drawn from occupations as hardy as war.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“When you have broken the reality into concepts you never can reconstruct it in its wholeness.”
—William James (1842–1910)
