Analog would be to not choose one of two identical looking items of food knowing one is not what it appears.
Just so I fully understand what you're saying, would you no longer find the rape/torture heart-wrenching knowing that the entity is also Hitler in another lifetime? Or, possibly, less heart-wrenching?
Let's delve even further.
What if, in the midst of such an atrocious act upon yourself, you learn that you were Hitler in your past life. Would things change for you then? What about if it were someone you loved dearly under attack? Would knowing they were also Hitler in another life change things?
