Transmigrate

My father believed that when he would die, he would be reborn in a different body in a different world—a different "planet." I was not sure if he was talking of Buddhist "rebirth" or Hindu "reincarnation." Nevertheless, he said that the "mind" as he put it would transmigrate into a new body. Before he converted to a Baptist Protestant, as a Roman Catholic, he did explore the paranormal genre, such as books by Tuesday Lobsang Rampa and Erich von Däniken.

Some religious people who believe in rebirth or reincarnation believe that people return on this same world. My father thought that he would transmigrate to a different "planet" altogether, as an newly-born infant.
