We are going to talk a little bit about the subject of reincarnation, it is a very interesting topic. All the information I will present is based on Vedic teachings which come from the Vedic scriptures. The Vedas are very ancient scriptures. They were written down five thousand years ago. But the knowledge itself is eternal. Prior to being written down it...

This is the modern world. Rarely does anyone go to scripture to find the truth in life. But we do readily accept the conclusion of the scientists. We like the scientists because they prove things. Uniquely enough in this case the scientists have proven in the laboratory that we are not our material bodies. They discovered that there is no cell in the human...

“Incarnation” means us, the spiritual soul, inside the material body. The concept of reincarnation means that before I was in this body in this life I was in a previous body and a previous life. The time we are in this body, we call that “our life”. “Oh, he lived 35 years,” on the tombstone. You start to count those years, “Oh, he was 60 years...

The soul has many inherent characteristics. One of those is desire. That is why we have so many desires. It is part of us, it is part of the soul. People say, “Oh, you can be free of all desires.” It is not true. Our desires take us through life. We follow one desire trying to fulfill it, and another desire appears. Then we follow another one and on...

The second factor is material attachment. It is the nature of the soul to be attached. That is why we get attached so easily. Some people say, “Oh, you can be non-attached.” This is again incorrect. These people are attached to their non-attachment. We get attached so quickly. You are parking in the same parking space two nights in a row. Come back the...

Number three – karma. Almost everybody has heard of the word “karma”. Most people don’t understand it very well. There could be a whole lecture on this subject but I’ll just briefly discuss it. In the material world there are material laws that govern us. They are called “the laws of material nature.” On this planet one such law is gravity....

The question could be asked, “Well, is reincarnation a good thing or a bad thing?” You talk to one person and he says, “Oh, it is great. I can come back again and again.” That is a person who is experiencing the results of his good karma, “Oh, life is good.” But talk to a person who is experiencing the results of his bad karma. He gives another...

The Supreme Lord also has a will, the Supreme will, and His will is always done. As long as I act independent of the Supreme will then I am responsible for all my actions. That is the law of karma. But if I connect my will with the Supreme will, I do what I do because it is His will then there is no karma for those actions. That is karma-free activity. I...

All right, looks like we have a few questions here. – Why don’t we remember our previous life? – Some people do, most people don’t. We came to this world to enjoy separately from God, to be little independent enjoyers. But really there is no enjoyment here for us. Each time we take a new birth we have forgotten all the miserable difficult things of...
