DOWNLOAD EBOOKWhence have I come? Whither shall I go? These questions will be asked by every intelligent person. They are the problems of life. Your present life is but one in a series of countless incarnations, though all are not necessarily in the human form. The union of the soul with a particular body is known as birth and its separation therefrom is called death. When the soul leaves its physical sheath, it transmigrates into another body, human, animal or even vegetable, according to its merits. Man does actions with the expectation of getting fruits, and so he takes a birth to enjoy the fruits of his actions. In the next birth, he does some more actions and he has to take another birth. In this manner the Samsaric wheel is revolving from eternity to eternity. When one gets knowledge of the Self, he is liberated from this round of births and deaths. Karma is beginningless and Samara is also beginningless. When a man does actions without expectation of fruits in selfless spirit, all fetters of Karma get loosened gradually. The diseases we suffer from, the births we get here on earth are all products of actions done by us in previous times. Every action has its reaction and no action goes unrewarded in a suitable manner. Evil actions do not go without their bitter effects upon the doer. Here are given some of the many pitiable conditions of life in which man has to live due to his careless sinful deeds. It is said that beings take birth in one or the other of these worlds in accordance with their actions, which bear fruits of a kind that can be reaped only in that particular world. Only fire can give heat and only food can appease hunger. Even so, only a particular condition and environment can enable us to reap the fruits of a specific action. Though punishments need not necessarily be due to the wrath of any personal Divine Being, it can be asserted that it is necessary, by the very law of nature, that the soul should manifest itself with a body suited for its experience determined by its past actions. As such, it is not unreasonable that variety in the nature of worlds should be real. We have to remember that the real is unseen.
