Evolution is not something driven by the organism. It is something imposed on species by the environment.
A monkey decides he wants to use a tool to get some termites out of a nest. But his hands are not designed to hold the stick in the way that he needs to. The monkey dies, but his "memory" is reincarnated with the next generation. As they grow their soul is able to"remember" that they want to be able to get to the ants.
This is Lamarckism, an evolutionary mechanism long since disproved, all mixed up with superstition. 'Soul' is not a recognized term in biology.
Evolution is not proof of reincarnation. There is no proof of reincarnation.
