The transmigration of soul
Hinduism believes in the philosophy of rebirth . It believes that the body can be
destroyed , whereas the soul cannot be destroyed . The soul changes its outer form by
adopting various bodies . The cycle of rebirth continues infinitely , unless the soul attains
freedom from the bondage of birth and rebirth . Life is interpreted as a bondage which is
a result of the actions or karma done in the past lives . The equation is very straight and
absolutely logical . If one performs good actions or [banner_entry_middle]
karma , the result will be a better
life in future and if bad actions or karma are performed , the result will be bad life in
future . Similarly , the current status of life and its events are a sum- performed in the past . Bad actions will push the soul back into the vicious circle of
transmigration to various forms of bodies , whereas good actions help in purification of
the soul and bring it closer to God . This state of recognizing God is known as attaining
moksha , the ultimate place where the soul is free from all types of bondage , and the soul
does not have to get back to transmigration in various forms of bodies . It is FREE from
all bondages . It is the ultimate and the only state of true happiness

showered upon each and every being on this earth , in terms of eternal grace , but those
who cannot control these two virtues within themselves , are not able to pick up this
graceful rain of infinite blessings of God . These blessings are divine and have profound
energy within themselves which is healing and illuminating Selfishness and personal
motives are like a high rocky hill , and ego is like hard barren soil , on which the
ceaseless shower of God ‘s blessings does fall , but is not absorbed . It flows away . To
absorb these blessings and attain peace of mind , it is important that ego and selfishness
are eliminated from within
The mystery of evil
Where is the root of the so-called misery in every one ‘s life ? There is hardly any
human being who does not feel unhappy . Everybody seeks peace of mind . Why is this
so ? Why is everyone unhappy ? Those who have the earthly possessions do not have the
emotional security of family , and those who have it do not have the money . Almost all
of us , always… [banner_entry_footer]
