Reincarnation
How does the text connect continuity, remembrance and future embodiment?
Study the argument as several connected claims rather than treating a single verse as the whole doctrine. Bodily continuity, another embodiment, consciousness at death and destinations appear in different contexts.
A comparison can support continuity without explaining every mechanism. Later passages add conditions and destinations; label each addition rather than reading it backward into the first verse.
