The fundamental reason this river was so murky was that it carried the lingering thoughts, emotions, obsessions, loves, hates, grudges, seven emotions, and six desires of living beings before their deaths.
This was a cycle of reincarnation, yet it was also exceedingly bizarre. Unlike a true grand cycle of reincarnation, it could only cycle between the Two Realms.
It was more like reincarnation within a limited cage, but it was still incredibly astonishing!
