Imaginary claims

Mr Otter queries if reincarnation graduates a soul for existence on other planets. Please note that Hindu dharma is a way of life. Therefore obedience to laws of spatial habitat is more important than which planets one resides or qualifies for promotion. Laws on different planets may be different; obedience may be voluntary or forced. Our knowledge being confined to planet Earth, talks about migration to other planets is plain conjecture.  But lives on non-earthly arenas are mentioned in Hindu scriptures e.g. Bhoolok, Brahmlok. Vishnulok, Swargalok, 14 Bhuvanas etc. Earthlings were not allowed on different arenas while living in forms made of earthly physical matter,  (incident of Trishanku and Vishwamitra refers.)
Statement that beings from other planets guided earthly religions is hearsay and mere philosophy to push views diverging from mainstream and polarise followers towards new trends of thoughts. But Theosophy mentions brotherhood of elders, masters and perfected beings that influence religiosity and intervene during crises.
