SOUL'S OWN ACTIONS DECIDE FATE AFTER DEATH

Rituals After Death Help Children Only: Everybody is very anxious to know the post proceedings after death. Death is clearly understood by Science. According to Science, the human being is a composite machine comprising of several correlated instrumental mechanisms called systems like heart, lungs, kidneys etc. In a factory, you can see several machines working together in correlation with each other. The alive human being is such a functioning factory. When the total factory is shut down without the function of any machine, such a shutdown of all the systems in the human being is called as death. Up to this, Science is perfectly correct in explaining the procedure of death.

After death, Science says that nothing happens. When the factory is shutdown, nothing happens. Therefore, there is no re-birth of the individual soul. The human being is decomposed into five elements, which merge with the gross cosmic five elements of this universe. Another new body is created from the five gross cosmic elements like the construction of a new factory in a different place. As there is no link between the old destroyed factory and the new constructed factory, there should be no link between a dead person and newly born person. In this scientific concept one need not worry about bad deeds if the consequent punishments are skipped during the life time. The file gets closed with the death.

The Gita strongly opposes the above concept in the beginning itself, which says that any individual soul is born to die only and dies to take birth only. Science asks for the proof about the re-birth. The Divine Scripture never preaches anything without practical proof. Experience is the basis for any authority. All the authorities are derived from the perception only. There are hundreds of instances proving re-birth.

A child reveals the whole story of its past life and on verification, it is found true. The individual soul as a baby is always perplexed with the thoughts of the previous birth. It is unable to express due to lack of expression as speech. Its experience can be inferred from its sudden laughing and weeping. As the childhood progresses, the memory of the previous birth gets erased and the mind becomes active with the information of the present birth. Still, some strong thoughts reflect throughout the life. This is the general process of every human being. But, in the case of some human beings, very strong thoughts and sometimes total information of the previous birth impressed strongly gets expressed even in the advanced state of childhood.

This is the will of God to provide practical proof for re-birth. Therefore, we must always believe the Divine Scripture, which is the store of complete knowledge. Science is a store of partial knowledge. We must respect Science also since it deals with a systematic analysis. Hence, all the partial knowledge stored by Science is perfectly systematic and true. By this, you should not be over impressed and say that Science stores all the knowledge. Some scientists are biased and do not agree with the spiritual concepts even if we establish these with systematic analysis. Such scientists are not the perfect scientists due to their ego, jealousy to scriptures and rigid thinking.

As per the Divine Scriptures, an energetic body, which is a replica of this total human being similar in physical constitution and psychological setup rises from the body as soon as the factory is shutdown. This energetic body is alive body with the awareness having all the existing qualities. The materialized brain and nervous system are absent, but still the thoughts as energetic pulses are constituted with the mechanism of an electromagnetic disc in the computer. Thus, life and mind exist in this energetic body as said in the Veda (Manomayah Praana Shareera netaa). After death, this individual soul is subjected to lot of enquiry in the world meant for departed souls (Pretaloka). After the enquiry, this individual soul may go to hell and its energetic body is called as ‘Dhooma Shareera’. If it goes to heaven, it is called as ‘Bhoga Shareera’. If it goes to God, it is called as ‘Divya Shareera’.

The rituals after death have no connection with the departed soul. Whatever was committed by the soul during its life time here is alone responsible for that soul. The rituals performed by the children are concerned to their welfare only. In fact, the doer of the rituals worships the departed soul for the welfare of his family. The ritual cannot affect the departed soul in any way. It is purely for the welfare of the doer and not at all for the welfare of the departed soul. The essence of the ritual is only to give food and money (Dakshina) to a deserving scholar of spiritual knowledge.

The deserving person must know the true interpretation of the Divine Scripture and also must not aspire and demand anything from the doer. The Veda says that both these are essential qualities of a deserving person (Shrotriyasya Chaakama hatasya…). The first quality is theoretical side and the second quality is the practical side. If the deserving person happens to be the human incarnation, it is extraordinary occasion and in such case, even seven generations of departed souls are uplifted. Vishnu Datta, a devotee, was blessed in that way, when Lord Datta attended the ritual in human form.

Even though the Preacher teaches the truth so powerfully, a human brain always adopts fifty-fifty probability. Due to that, you will doubt the Preacher as fifty percent God and fifty percent human being. Now, you will think that if the Preacher is human being, all this will not be correct since nothing is visible. To avoid the risk of fifty percent probability, the human being orders its children to perform the ritual as usual! The Lord said in the Gita that even God cannot resist the human nature (Nigrahah Kimkarishyati… Gita).

Do you have the courage to consider that the way you are approaching people here is disrespectful?
To wonder if perhaps lecturing people and starting dozens of threads, often in subforums where they do not belong, might be rude and even counterproductive for your own goals?
Do you have a broad enough mind to consider that your own psychological needs might be determining how you approach people and even seem to not really care about their reactions and interests?
Do you have the courage to focus on discussing your ideas rather than vomiting them out, especially given that this is a discussion forum and not a blog?
How did you decide you had courage?
How did you decide you have a broad mind?
Have you decided that you have courage and a broad mind and will never reevaluate?
Can you take feedback and criticism into account and perhaps adjust or even more deeply change your approach to other people?
Is it possible that you think you are sharing good and lovely truths, but actually for you psychologically it is a way for you to feel special and even dominate others?
Could both be true?
What might be a better way to interact with people, one that would show them that you consider them at least potential equals not just receipients of your knowledge?
