QUESTION: AS WE KNOW, EVERYTHING HAPPENS BECAUSE OF KARMA (DEEDS), IT IS THE RESULT OF OUR PAST DEEDS, BUT WHICH IS OUR 1ST BIRTH AND ON WHAT TYPE OF DEEDS, GOD SENT US ON THIS EARTH? (I AM TALKING ABOUT THE 1ST BIRTH)

The Question "WHICH WAS OUR FIRST BIRTH & ON WHAT BASIS GOD SENT US IN THIS WORLD", keeps me busy from inside by thinking again & again. Yet I was unable to get the answer.

But, few days back, I went to ISKCON Temple at Nehru Place, New Delhi. I asked the above mentioned question to a fellow disciple, who was available there. 

She replied:-
Actually, we were born with Lord Krishna in our 1st birth, and there was no such specific reason, why we born with him. She said, Lord wants us in that Yoni or Birth, so he born us and kept us nearby.
But, in that birth, we were jealous of our God, or we carried a bad thinking, so we generated negative deeds, on to which we are here and trying to burn our sins.

I asked what Jealousy, she gave an example like, apart from Radha Rani, there were too many Gopis (female followers of Krishna) present out there, who were not close to Lord as Radha Rani, so they feel jealous of her.

I again asked her, is this logic is written somewhere in any scriptures, she said no, our guru replied at many occasion for the same question.

I don’t know this is correct or not but still there is some logic behind.

Please provide your views.

QUESTION: DOES KARMA EXIST? IS IT TRUE THAT WE NEED TO BEAR OUR KARMA IN THIS VERY LIFE? OR IS THERE THE SYSTEM OF VARIOUS BIRTHS IN WHICH WE LIVE LIFE, TO FULFILL OUR DEEDS?

QUESTIONS ACROSS MANY PEOPLE MINDS:-

Does karma exist? - Yes, Karma do exist.

Why? - We have seen a lot of people, different people of different religion, different caste, but all of them are not equal in aspects  like education, health, money, occupation etc. We also saw that some are poor, some are rich, even some were rich but now they are poor and vice versa.

By looking such a huge difference, I or anybody thinks why they are like that, why there are above us or below, what they have done so they are here? This question takes us to the process of KARMA.

Is it true that we need to bear our karma in this very life- Actually, this is not true, Karma’s result can be carry forwarded even in our next lives also, because even at the end of our life (at old stage) we are bound to perform karma. And output of that we be faced at our next birth either in form of human or animals, birds, organism etc.

Or is there the system of various births in which we live life to fulfill our deeds?- Yes, there are system of births, if the results of our accumulated deeds are not possible to suffer in current birth, we have to take birth again & again, until it becomes to zero.

And when it comes to zero, we will attain Salvation.

QUESTION: DOES GOD DECIDE WHETHER WE WILL END UP IN HEAVEN OR HELL, OR THE CHOICE IS OURS?

HELL OR HEAVEN is based on the very common principle, which is:-

"WHAT YOU SOW SO YOU REAP"

So, we are the one, who can guide our self for the path, which takes us to Hell or Heaven. It all depends on the what type of deeds we do throughout our life.

Heaven- described as the holiest place where Souls of good people resides. Good people here referred to the persons, who added a lot of positive deeds (Karma) in their account during their stay at earth.

Hell- Just opposite to Heaven is a place, which also comes after the life ends. This place is full of pain, misery, sufferings and in fact it is a home full of negativity inside.

Those, who accumulated more of Positive deeds will headed to Heaven. And those, who accumulated more of Negative, will lead to Hell.

But if a person, by chanting the name of God, burns both of the deeds, will achieve the Salvation (Moksha), and will be away from both Hell & Heaven.

TYPE OF YONIS- DIVYA YONI, BHOG YONI & KARMA YONI

Birth in form of Human Being is very valuable and exquisite as it takes around eighty four lakhs (8.4 million) Yonis to complete and rebirth in the form of human.

“YONI” means “A Type of Birth” like birth in form of humans, animals, insects, fishes etc. But precious one is in the form of Human Being which comes under Karma Yoni.

Basically there are 3 types of Yonis, which are:-

1.        Divya Yoni      -     Intangible or say non-material body
2.        Bhog Yoni       -     Cannot perform Deeds but have material body
3.        Karma Yoni    -     Can perform Good/ Bad Deeds & have material body

All these YONIs are result of the Deeds (Karma or Act or Work) performed by the individual (in human being form) in their past from thousands of years which gets accumulated in their account from time to time.

Divya Yoni-  Divya Yonis exists in a non-material form and is a type of light with positive energy. They can feel, experience even use their minds but they cannot perform any task as we can do which are visible to everyone. They exist in this Pure Yoni as they accumulated good moral values with their Sanskaras and Spiritual practices when they were humans and alive.

Example:- Good Spirits, Angels, Demi-gods etc.

Bhog Yoni- Bhog Yoni exists as living being species in any form except human beings as they do not have the power to perform deeds. They are here only to suffer and face the circumstances based on the quality of deeds they have deposited in their accounts. They are trying to satisfy themselves by hunger and sleep.

Example:- Animals, Birds, Insects etc.

Karma Yoni- The most valuable and important Yoni in this world is Karma yoni. It is the yoni in which the Soul enters the human world and can able to perform deeds in such a way that he can clear his balance and get liberated from the life cycle (Jeevan Chakra) and achieve its final destination termed as Salvation.

In this Yoni, the individual can use his brain & senses and can shape his thoughts to perform a positive Deed/Act.

Example:- Human Beings

SALVATION (Moksha)

SALVATION (Moksha in Hindu Mythology) is the process by virtue of it the Soul cannot enter in any life cycle and will never come to existence in future. In short, the soul exempt to born & death cycle and attains peace.

The word "Salvation" needs to be understood properly as most of the world treats Death as Salvation, which is wrong.

As I stated in my earlier posts, God sent us on this living planet so as to burn our remaining deeds (karma). These deeds (karma) are already reduced to some extent by our soul which completed their desired span in hell/heaven. After that only we arrived on this planet.

God allows us (us here stands for only human beings not animals, birds etc.) to enchant his name so that our books of deeds finishes within the life cycle, which allows your further to mix our soul with the God's.

Ancient saints use to mediate for years to achieve Salvation but in current scenario, we are so busy with our schedules of life, that we are unable to do so. Henceforth our beloved god makes the steps easily so that we can reach him.

One of the easiest and best ways to achieve Salvation is to enchant the God's name regularly.

We can remember him all the time by thanking him for the things he had given to us and making our life perfect. We can start and end our day by mesmerizing him. We can thank him that he made us healthy by health, wealthy by wealth and provides us the basic amenities like food, shelter and clothes. We can pray for his blessings so as to live happily with peace & prosperity.

By connecting with the divine power of god and doing such things, I am sure God will lead us to the correct path and help us to achieve Salvation within our lives.

HELL OR HEAVEN - BOTH TEMPORARY

People throughout the world think about life after death, but their mind is incapable to think beyond only two things, which are HELL and HEAVEN. And most of them want to enter Heaven as we heard a lot of that place viz. Gods, Angels, Full of peace etc.

In short we can say that:-

“Heaven is a Galleria of all good stuff at a single place whether tangible or intangible”.

Heaven as in books, described as the holiest place where Souls of good people resides. Good people here referred to the persons, who added a lot of positive deeds (Karma) in their account during their stay at earth.

HELL, just opposite to Heaven is a place, which also comes after the life ends. This place is full of pain, misery, sufferings and in fact it is a home full of negativity inside.

But Hell is better known as:-

“The area where the Souls get punished due to their Sins added in their account during their period of stay”.

God, the supreme power has the rights to evaluate and allocates the Soul, to enter either Hell or Heaven. As per Hindu Mythology, Chitragupta is the holy god who has been assigned with the task of keeping complete records of human beings on the earth. And he is fully responsible for allocation of souls into Heaven or Hell.

But in both the cases, the Souls have to complete their span in their respective places viz. Hell or Heaven and later on they have to move forward so as to enter into a new body.

As 100% of Soul’s Goodness cannot be Utilized in Heaven

&

100% of Soul’s Sins cannot be Burnt in Hell

So

God directs the Soul (good/bad) to enter the life cycle

SALVATION (MOKSHA):- GOD ALLOWS THE SOUL TO ENTER THE CYCLE OF BIRTH & DEATH AGAIN, SO THAT THE SOUL GETS ONE MORE CHANCE TO ATTAIN SALVATION AND HENCE IT GET RID OF REBIRTH CYCLE.

Both Hell & Heaven are temporary, Only Salvation is permanent and allows the soul to rest in peace.

Now, It’s up to the person, What he want?

1)     Heaven

2)     Hell

or

3)     Salvation (Moksha)

POWER OF THE BRAIN BRINGS FLASHBACK OF LIFE IN THE END

Have you ever experience your past days of school in your dreams which you want to memorize after 10-15 years, which you were unable to recollect normally? I hope this happens to almost everyone and the same happened to me when I was returning home from my daily routine.

Today, due to some traffic jam, I changed my route to an old one which I used to take in my early school days. Of course as I said, a FLASHBACK runs into my mind which recollects the images and sequences of things happened in my past. Our powerful brain calculates and flashes different things which changed/ unchanged during the tenure.

FLASHBACK is a psychological phenomenon in which an individual has a sudden, usually powerful, re-experiencing of a past experience or elements of a past experience. These experiences can be happy, sad, exciting, or any other emotion one can consider.

While driving I feel that the flashback which came to my mind was not totally clear, or say the visibility of the past was not clear, it was something like a blurred image/ video. I keep on pressurizing my brain to demonstrate the clear picture of my past, which I want to see again, but I was unsuccessful.

Later on, my mind concludes that while dreaming during the night, the thoughts/ images/ videos/ flashes are pretty much clear, visible and realistic as it was happened. But the question arises WHY IT WAS SO REAL IN NIGHT DREAMS?

ANSWER: - Actually, it happens when a person feels relaxed, cool, calm n free from stress, and as the person is happy from inside, his brain takes him to the journey of the past where he cherished some of the golden moments of his life and projects the same in his dreams. These dreams/ flashbacks are of very short duration

BUT, MANY OF OUR SAINTS SAID, WHEN A PERSON IS NEAR TO HIS DEATH BED, BEFORE HE LEAVES HIS BODY, GOD ALLOW BRAIN TO PLAY FULL MOVIE OF THE PERSON’S LIFE CYCLE, SINCE FROM THE START viz. BORN, PLAY SCHOOL, TEENAGE LIFE, YOUNGSTERS, MARRIAGE, ETC., ALL THE THINGS HE SPENT ALL OVER HIS LIFE TIME. 

BECAUSE AT THAT TIME, HIS BODY IS MOVING TOWARDS THE ENDING PHASE AND HIS BRAIN DOES NOT ALLOW HIM TO MOVE FORWARD EXCEPT LOOKING BACK INTO THE PAST.

SIGNIFICANCE OF BIRTH AS PER HINDU MYTHOLOGY

The word “BIRTH” makes us memorize the joy & happiness due to coming of a newborn into existence. Birth allows the newborn to commence the life in this world, where he/she has to face many positive as well as negative things.

                                    
Normally the human behavior, while facing positive things have no time to think, “WHY WE BORN & HOW WE CAME INTO EXISTENCE”, but whenever a person feels pain & sorrow, he/she thinks about these facts viz. 

“WHY WE CAME HERE, JUST TO SUFFER, TO FACE THE CHALLENGES OF LIFE”.

At that point of life, the mind is so stressed that he is unable to think out of the box and again concentrates on his problem. But still the question of “WHY & HOW” is in person’s mind and his sub-conscious mind always directs him to explore the reason.

1. HOW WE BORN- Apart from biological process, we all read and hear stories that, there is something we called it as “SOUL”, which drives our body internally. Holy books of Hindu Myths signify that, the Soul roams and moves in the universe and waits for the right time to enter in this world in the form of living being.

                                    Only Soul has the capability, which provides us the inner power to run our body apart from outside power we get from food, air & water. The Soul does not require food, air, water or anything to survive. Hence we can say that “SOUL IS A UNIQUE AND A VERY MINUTE PARTICLE OF GOD”, which cannot be seen through naked eye.

SOUL- Never Dies (Intangible)

BODY- Always Destroyed in the End (Tangible)

SOUL has the power to ENTER/ EXIT the body as per God’s wish, however God’s wish is based on the DEEDS (Karma) performed by the living being.

The question still remains active, Why God direct the Soul to enter into the cycle of life & death?

2. WHY WE BORN- As stated above, SOUL is a form of (inner) energy, an unique particle of God which is roaming in the universe. This SOUL wants to get back to its parent, to meet its end/ to mix again from where it has been derived (GOD), but unfortunately does not have the adequate power to reach its origin. It is as simple as that, A DROP OF WATER WAITING TO END IN THE OCEAN.

                                                                        The SOUL does not have so much power to reach its destiny, so it waits outside the living world (universe) and waits for the god’s direction to enter the cycle of birth & death. As GOD, the almighty being so generous, he favors the SOUL (as it is a part of it) and directs him to enter a body to ENERGIZE it, so as to reach the God’s place and achieve SALVATION. After attaining the phase of Salvation, Soul never enters the living world.
