Why this word is great
GILGUL — [Noun] In Jewish mysticism, the concept of reincarnation or the transmigration of souls. From Hebrew גלגול (gilgul), meaning 'cycle' or 'rolling', derived from the root ג-ל-ג-ל (g-l-g-l), which conveys the idea of rolling or revolving, as in a wheel (galgal). Unlike "metempsychosis" (a philosophical abstraction) or "dybbuk" (a spectral interloper), gilgul is the quiet, cyclical return of a soul to mend its unfinished work. It is the whisper of a past life in a child’s uncanny knowledge, the déjà vu of a cobbled street in a city never visited, or the way certain griefs feel ancient—not borrowed, but remembered. The wheel turns, but not without purpose.
