What happens after death? Reincarnation as a text continue where the Christian narrative ends. This essay deals with the issue of reincarnation in social media and popular culture in a new project. The subject involved expressed in blogs and popular books are mainly of modern character although the context and style of negotiation are postmodern. Death at present may be individualized according to Bauman (1992) but the need to discuss, recreate and rearticulate images about death and presumed after-life scenarios, is more collegial and interpreted as an ongoing intertextual and intercultural practice.
