    I appreciate all the hard work that person put into the theory, but what a mess. I think Star Wars would get ridiculed into the stone age if the twist is Darth Vader comes back as a sexy chick.

    Interesting theory, and I can see how one can draw these conclusions in viewing TFA with this theory in mind. I just don't see SW going the reincarnation route... I could totally be wrong, however.

    From what I gathered Darth Plagueis believed his experiments with midichlorians and his attempt to create his own "Jedi slaying force golem" through sith alchemy was a failure. The truth was that it wasn't a failure and his efforts to unbalance the force and give the sith and the Darkside an edge caused the force itself to step in and alter the destiny and purpose of the being created from the Force. The beings new purpose was to bring balance to the force instead of unbalancing it. Anakin fulfilled his destiny when he saved Luke and the galaxy by killing Palpatine.

    Star Wars has always been in Arthurian legend/soap opera/space epic and not anything to do with Hindu/Buddhist teaching besides some lyrics to the OSTs in Sanskrit and Yoda meaning WARRIOR in Sanskrit .

    The Force is indeed misterious. It created Anakin, who killed every single jedi in the galaxy, thus causing the great unbalance himself, then by killing Sidious he brought balance to the problem he single handedly caused...

    Very well thought out, but I can't buy it and I refuse to buy it. How on earth would they handle that in dialogue and character development when it's revealed to Rey - "Oh, by the way.......you're Darth Vader!". I'm sure Finn would be pretty turned off by that too! :)

    Entertaining theory!
    Less ethereal than this immaculate conception business and possibly overlooked on this thread is the remote possibility of mammalian parthenogenesis.

    Interestingly enough Wikipedia states that although there are no known cases of naturally occurring mammalian parthenogenesis in the wild "parthenogenetic progeny of mammals would have two X chromosomes, and would therefore be female."

    Just putting it out there... ;)

    Palpatines order 66 killed most, not all, the Jedi in the galaxy. Vader did not do it single handedly. Palpatine used Anakin to aid him in Master Plageius original plan in unbalancing the force. Anakin fulfilled that purpose and then went on to carry out the purpose The Force itself placed before him in bringing balance back to the force. so yes The Force is indeed "mysterious" and Anakin did indeed fulfill his destiny........BOTH of them.

    Star Wars has magic, ghosts, glowing swords, rediculous plot holes and coincidences...I don't see why they couldn't throw in a little reincarnation.

    If Anakin dosent stop Windu from killing Sidious all that stuff wouldnt've happened. If Windu was strong enough to erease the threat alone, why was the ,,chosen one" even needed? If the jedi confronted Sidious in the front of big publicity he couldnt've pick a fight against them. The Old Rebublic had around 1000s of jedi and only one strong sith, there were like 100s of ways Sidious could' ve been easely defeated. No chosen one was really needed only some brain. The prophecy should've been something like: If you find a guy with tremendious amount of midichlroians on a desert planet, KILL IT! KILL IT AS FAST AS YOU CAN!
    Hopefully they leave this terribly written ,,chosen one" crap out the new trilogy.

    Hmmm

    I am not sure I am sold on the reincarnation angle. I don't think it fits SW as it has existed so far. Anakin's redemption brought him to the same gone but not forgotten status as Yoda and Obi-wan.

    Reincarnation aside this theory plays up Rey's connection to Anakin at the expense of Ben's. Both seem to be trying to take up his legacy but from alternate sides of the force.

    They could both be a bit of reincarnation. Ben the darkside and Rey the light. Split reincarnation....or just grandkids...or both

    Possible I suppose. I was more thinking that in his Death Anakin accepted his role as the balance of the force as the Father in the Motis Arc. Thus we see "the children" from the mortis arc playing out.

    I would be OK with this outcome if they managed to pull it off without the word "reincarnation" or any other religious/mystical nonsense.

    Soo, basically the Supreme Being had a conversation with Anakin's force ghost:

    - I'm sorry I have some bad news: you were very bad in the last incarnation and we've decided you can't live here along such great guys like Mace Windu (remember you helped in his murder?), Yoda and Obi-Wan (you have killed him!). You have to pay your debts (killing the emperor's doesn't count!). We'll send you back, but you won't remember anything. You have to redeem yourself without any knowledge of your previous life. But don't worry, as soon as we end this conversation your memory will be wiped way.

    It's a very nice piece of imagination, but I really hope that's not it.
