Nietzsche’s theory of reincarnation

According to Nietzsche, he first acquired this concept while walking in a high mountain forest in August 1881. He admitted that he was influenced by Heraclitus's theory of change. He calls it "the most extreme form of nihilism," but it's also a way to transcend nihilism. The following is a description of this in his writings:

“All things come and go, the wheel of existence is forever turning. All things are born, all things die, and the time of existence is forever running. . Separate and connected, the ring of existence, always true to oneself, every moment has the beginning of existence, the ball of 'there' revolves around every 'here', the center is omnipresent, and the road to eternity is winding." p>

"You exist forever! Love the world forever! And painfully say to the world: 'Go! But you have to come back!' Because all happiness requires eternity."

" God on the cross is a curse on life, a signpost for finding salvation through life. Dionysus being chopped into pieces is a promise of life: he will be reborn and return from destruction."

Nietzsche believes in eternity. Reincarnation is his "scientific of all hypotheses", and the premise is as follows: the energy in the universe is immortal and time is infinite. Finite forces operating in infinite time must be able to reappear. But in fact, this probability is close to zero, which makes his theory of eternal recurrence lack scientific basis. Kaufman's comment on this is: "For Nietzsche, eternal recurrence is less of an idea than an experience... He talked a lot about his first experience of this, because for him it was a salvation. moments of his life
