Nothing can be remembered from the previous life, since memories are stored in the brain, and the brain and its consciousness is - as stated earlier - fragmented in the time between two incarnations.

Is the reincarnated "me" me again or just someone exactly like me? The latter makes more sense to me than the former. |
He is indeed
you again, the same consciousness that reads these lines in this moment. He would not be the same as an identical twin or a clone, neither of which are completely identical to you or share your mind/consciousness.
Remember though, that you have already lived life an infinite number of times, and you still can't remember having lived it before. Each time is essentially experienced as the first time.
This is not a hypothesis that is testable by scientific means, so it can never become a scientific theory. It will remain in the realm of philosophic speculation, but I - personally- have no doubt that it is true.
I'm not going to impose this belief on other people, but it is a thought that has transformed my life and the way I think, since I know that every choice I make leads to consequences that will have to be dealt with through eternity.
