Do we die only once? What is death? Questions galore cloud a disturbed mind and voices are heard from every possible direction. An inquisitive mind searches for answers amidst this confusion, while a confused mind is easily perturbed. An observant mind views a clarity right in the middle of this dance...
Body as we know will die once.. Probably.. May not be... There are incidents and individuals who shape our life.. Life is a sum total of all these bitter-sweet experiences, some of which leave a pleasant thought, while human psyche is tuned to remember the ones which leave a depressing feeling inside.
The first question is whether do we die physically once? I don't think so. There are incidents like accidents that leave an irreparable mark on the physical body which reminds us of something that was altered. This could also be due to operations, self-inflicted or accidental injuries or burns. Some thing in the physical body doesn't exist any more and it's a gradual decay.
The more meta-physical question is about Soul. Multiple schools of philosophy subscribe to the fact that Soul is transferred from one container (body/birth) to another. Well, this explanation could be considered as an abstract explanation of the journey of soul, can it explain the minute experiences that one endures on a daily basis.
Does Soul die and gets birth again? I certainly think so. Life is a journey of multiple major, minor, sub-minor and micro stops. Each of these stops are pre-ordained and much to the dismay of many, none of them are determined or controlled by us. Each of these individual experiences shape our life and impact us permanently.
Some experiences takes away a part of soul and makes us very sad like not receiving attention, love not reciprocated or death or loosing something very dear. Each of the minute incidents are instances where the soul or part of the soul dies. It will be a miracle if the same part of the soul is ever revived. For example, how many can claim that they don't remember loosing their dog or not remembering their first love.. These never go away and pain is eternal.
Similar analogy can be considered for the positive reinforcements or instances where extreme, unadulterated and immeasurable happiness was encountered.
To conclude, the soul undergoes multiple births and deaths within one single physical life. Few are able to comprehend this cosmic dance of deaths and births..
