Yes, But - I suppose the problem would be in getting your
consciousness intact from the old to the new.

I think the Mahatmas have this all figured out, though. They developed
the TULKU process whereby they enter into a baby, or a badly injured
young person, and heal it, reanimate it, and then use it till it wears
out, in turn. Several of the people HPB & Olcott visited in South
India had done that. I believe one was a woman, who had been an old
man, who needed a new body, and couldn't find a suitable one, and was
forced to settle for a female body. As I recall, the name was MAJI, or
something similar.

That is evidently the process that the high Lamas in Tibet used, -the
process used by the Dali Lama is that, I believe.

Perhaps if we study hard, they will share the knowledge with a few
people?
