The Otherworld Of The Celtic Druids

The realm of the dead and the otherworld have consistently been seen as sections of one region representing various aspects of the afterlife. Caesar believed that the Celtic Druids of the Otherworld preached immortality of the soul, and that would allow them to be fierce warriors. However, many believe that their souls migrate to different vessels, allowing them to live for centuries.

This belief of reincarnation is quite different than Hinduistic rituals where reincarnation affected all those that were worthy. The druids believed that their souls, even when they were long gone, would be able to control their body in the otherworld.
