::MYSTIC VIEW OF REINCARNATION::

PAST LIFE, KARMA AND REINCARNATION

(THE MYSTIC VIEW)

What is Reincarnation?

Reincarnation – from Latin, re-again, in-in, caro-flesh. It means rebirth (of the soul) in another body, which the soul reappears after death in another different bodily form, which may be human or animal. Usually it is an intangible “soul” that is believed to be reborn in another body.

“Life did not begin at the time when we are born, nor at the time of conception, but from the timeless moment with God.”

“Because God is Life eternal, and the soul within us is a part of Eternity - Life is infinity.”

In the beginning of Creation, God implanted with-in the universe the “spiritual spark,” called “purusas.” Purusas – which is the “cosmic essence that emanates from the mind of God, who have samskaras (desires) to exist, transform to paramatman, (cosmic soul) creates an impression of restlessness to move infinitely in the universe, and influence the vibration of the operative atomic structure called paramanus, to form, mold and to exist in a different stages of life.

The impression of the paramatman, (soul) to exist, became the vehicle for himself to obtain a human form. By the grace of Parama Purush, this made himself transform from etheric, translucent, to matter, then to a human form. Until then, attained the spiritual form.

REINCARNATION is also called TRANSMIGRATION, OR METEMPSYCHOSIS. In Hindu and Buddhist religion and philosophy, rebirth of the soul in one or more successive existences, which may be human, animal, or, in some instances, vegetable.

The major religions that hold a belief in reincarnation, however, are the Asian religions, especially Hinduism, Jainism, Buddhism, and Sikhism, all of which arose in India. They all hold in common a doctrine of karma ("act"), the law of cause and effect, which states that what one does in this present life will have its effect in the next life.

In Hinduism the process of birth and rebirth--i.e., transmigration of souls--is endless until one achieves moksha, or spiritual salvation, by realizing the truth that liberates--i.e., that the individual soul (atman) and the absolute soul (Brahman) are one. Thus, one can escape from the wheel of birth and rebirth (samsara).Jainism, reflecting a belief in an absolute soul, holds that karma is affected in its density by the deeds that a person does. Thus, the burden of the old karma is added to the new karma that is acquired during the next existence until the soul frees itself by religious disciplines, especially by ahimsa ("nonviolence"), and rises to the place of liberated souls at the top of the universe. Although Buddhism denies the existence of an unchanging, substantial soul, it holds to a belief in the transmigration of the karma of souls. A complex of psycho-physical elements and states changing from moment to moment, the soul, with its five skandhas ("groups of elements")--i.e., body, sensations, perceptions, impulses, and consciousness--ceases to exist; but the karma of the deceased survives and becomes a vijñana ("germ of consciousness") in the womb of a mother. This vijñana is that aspect of the soul reincarnated in a new individual. By gaining a state of complete passiveness through discipline and meditation, one can leave the wheel of birth and rebirth and achieve nirvana, the state of the extinction of desires. Sikhism teaches a doctrine of reincarnation based on the Hindu view but in addition holds that, after the Last Judgment, souls--which have been reincarnated in several existences--will be absorbed in God.

While belief in reincarnation is most characteristic of Asian religions and philosophies, it also appears in the religious and philosophical thought of primitive religions, in some ancient Middle Eastern religions (e.g., the Greek Orphic mystery, or salvation, religion), Manichaeism, and Gnosticism, as well as in such modern religious movements as theosophy. In primitive religions, belief in multiple souls is common. The soul is frequently viewed as capable of leaving the body through the mouth or nostrils and of being reborn, for example, as a bird, butterfly, or insect. The Venda of southern Africa believe that, when a person dies, the soul stays near the grave for a short time and then seeks a new resting place or another body--human, mammalian, or reptilian. Among the ancient Greeks, Orphism held that a preexistent soul survives bodily death and is later reincarnated in a human or other mammalian body, eventually receiving release from the cycle of birth and death and regaining its former pure state. Plato, in the 5th-4th century BC, believed in an immortal soul that participates in frequent incarnations.

The Mystic view of reincarnation, more correctly Transmigration, is quite different to religious doctrine of Hinduism, Buddhism, and Sikhism. According to the belief of Hindus and Buddhist, reincarnation is the result of Karmic mistake being done in their pastlives. The question is, how could a person reincarnate if it is his first life on Earth? This is the one of so many questions about real transmigration, that the master will reveal.

Q. If reincarnation was real, why we can't remember it?

A. Man's genetic code during the time he was developed as an embryo is very crucial because, he inherited the 50% 0f each parent's gene. So, we can conclude that a newly born child who has a new body will be 100% the same as its past existence. Even his cells which are capable of transferring informations of his past experiences was changed to a new one, and that is the reason why a person could not remember his past existence.

But, even we are equipped with the 50% gene that comes from each of our parents. Clearly, we could not remember those habits and attitudes of them. Although there are times that these attitudes and other genetic defects manifest naturally, Perhaps we recognize it because we accumulate our parents' gene. It was the same as what happened to our soul which was recorded in the akashic, we couldn't remember it because of the fact that we are now 100% new. Our pastlife could be remembered only in proper time through the help of our extra cerebral memory.

Q. What is Extra Cerebral Memory? (ECM)

A. There is a second type of memory which does not depend on our brain cells. This is called extra-cerebral, “beyond the brain.” This governs the memory of past lives, the memory of a time when the mind and soul lived in other bodies with other brains. Often little children are able to preserve this memory up to about the age of five years.

This extra-cerebral memory begins to fade after five years. The more one advances in age, the more the new environment leaves its impressions in the child’s mind. The more a child sees new things before its eyes, the more restless it becomes to know each and every object of this world. Hence, the child asks a multitude of questions – it seems there is no end to its inquisitiveness. The more it receives the answers to its questions, the more its mind gets acquainted with the mundane world. The experiences of the crude mind then begin and get reflected in the dream state. As a result, the vibrations of the causal mind cannot come to the surface any more. Hence, the more the child advances in age, the more it forgets its past life.

Q. How do we remember past life?

When a soul enters a new body, everything in the storehouse of memory is blank. No memory of past life information are recorded to one’s cells? Then, why some remember their past life?

Re – a prefix meaning “again or anew.” In Tagalog “muli sa laman.”

“For what your heart cherish is, there will your soul be also.”

Knowing the law of reincarnation, attain self realization.
