👉 Incarnation is a concept in Hinduism that refers to the idea of the individual soul or consciousness being born again into a new body, after it has passed through various stages of life. This concept was introduced by the sage Vedicara (also known as Manu) and later popularized by the 15th century Hindu philosopher Ramanuja. The term "incarnadined" is derived from the Sanskrit word "incarnation," which means "birth again."
