   C. Reincarnation allows one to work toward Moksha through several lifetimes

Explanation:  Moksha is the end result of the so-called journey through several lives or rebirths which is reincarnation. Reincarnation is a tool by which, over the course of several lives, one approaches and realizes Moksha, whereby in each of the rebirths the effort is made to do so. Anyone who is not ready to attain Moksha or ultimate liberation from repeated cycles of birth and death, therefore, is reborn by the law of karma. Karma or action, therefore sends the soul back to life to go through that re-life in order to be free from some bondage of sin, that is, karma is the one that "reminds" of our sins and returns us to try again to confess sins and reach Moksha. That is why reincarnation is always a new chance to achieve Moksha and therefore does not prevents people from reaching Moksha but encourages them to do so. The achievement of Moksha is in fact a reward for the efforts made over several lifetimes, and that reward is united with the universal Deity, or God. The true essence of self is Atman. The Atman is a universal true self, translated from the original as something like "breath", and can either exist in life or be released from the grip of existence and move to Moksha. So the Atman is the essence of the self that wanders through the cycles of life and death until the final liberation of being.
