r/VanMorrison

No Guru Question

In Tir Na Nog, Van basically discusses reincarnation, multiple lifetimes. Yet the album is No guru, method, teacher - just the father son and holy ghost. Isn't multiple lifetimes more of pro Guru method teacher idea, rather than a traditional Christian one suggested by the album title? Just saying. Beautiful 5 star track of course.
