It's a curious story, however, we need to take all into consideration. How reliable are the sources that reported what she was saying as a child? How reliable are the sources that reported what happened upon her arrival in Mathura? How reliable is testimony from her teachers, parents and even Kedarnath Chaube himself? Did someone have something to gain by exaggerating or making up facts? I think that surely there could be another explanation (apart from reincarnation), but the reincarnation hypothesis is hard to disprove in any case. I wonder if there is some academic research rigorously looking into the exact circumstances (I reckon this is an interesting subject, so I guess someone at least tried to do that).
