The law of deincarnation is a law just as well understood among the higher angels as the law of evolution, or of reincarnation. Deincarnation takes place when the incarnated soul concludes to return to mother nature to take upon itself another material body for the purpose of another experience through matter.
1896, William Cleveland, The Religion of Modern Spiritualism and Its Phenomena, page 165
