    It's a shame we Americans don't entertain foreign concepts, or at least develop systems like this one from our religion, but I guess the problem is religion isn't the same as Sanatana Dharma.

    Most instructive - reminds me so much of Swami Chinmayananda.
    With regard to karanasharira - I always thought that the word kArana कारण - meant reason (when speaking of intellect) and that word karana करण meant cause, or causing (when speaking of levels of consciousness)?

    I lost patience around 13-14 min.I know Swamiji is v.knowledgeable but why can't we come to point straight ?.This is job of editing people who need to shorten to relevant information, or the uploader.
    However hats off to Swamiji again..!! Wonderful information !!

    Why Reincarnation?
    1. Everyone knows the first - it's called Responsibility - you made the mess, you clean it up. You took on a debt, pay it back! The concept of begging one's way out by asking for forgiveness is not there in Hinduism. This is treated more like getting an F in a test - no amount of pleading will make the Teacher change your grade and no student should even ever ask for such a change. Retake the test and earn a better grade - that is the Right thing to do
    2. This is ALL there is - sadly most religions promise a fantasy land in the sky - all one has to do is die and it is right there waiting for us - the eternal good life. Makes you wonder what was the purpose of life? To make sure you join the "right" religion and pray to the "right" God?
    God created this world for us, Religions created Heavens for cowards and the weak, telling them one can run away and hide under the bed. Choose to live in the world God Created for us, one can't live in fantasies or dreams
    3. Because Life is a Gift - a Gift from God! A Gift that keeps on giving, savor it and ask for more!
    4. Heaven is a metaphor for the Womb, Childhood & the Past. Whereas Reincarnation stands for Life, Adulthood and the Future. Other religions teach a way OUT of Pain and Suffering, Hinduism preaches a way IN! Time to get out of the womb, out of Eden and start Life! We experience pain for the first time but that is also how Life Begins!
    5. Heaven is for the Retired, those who gave up on life and want a quiet, useless existence. Reincarnation is for those who choose to continue to Work. Much to do down here - Fight Poverty, Disease, Climate Change, Animal Abuse, Terrorism, Discrimination - the list goes on and on
    6. As the above point shows Reincarnation is for the Warrior. The coward can go hide under the bed, safe and happy(Heaven). Where would you find a Warrior? In the heat of battle, maybe bleeding to death! Warriors don't run away and hide, the move forward, not back. Religions have poured Coward medicine down our throats, imploring us to run away from life, run and hide under the bed, God will keep us safe like a helpless little child, a baby. Time to view Life from the perspective of the Warrior
    7. God Rama asks, "The Pain is Here, Suffering is here. Where else would you rather be?" Stay in the womb, safe, happy, content(Heaven) or be Born, Life begins with pain and suffering, it is part of Life. To wish for a life without pain or suffering is Unnatural, not human
    8. Choose Real Life(Reincarnation) over a Fake Fantasy(Heaven). Reincarnation because one can't live in dreams. Heaven is a dream, a fantasy. It is nice to think we can live in a nice dream, enjoy a fantasyland, live in a fairy tale but we cannot live there. So many get lost in their online dream worlds today, Heaven was the original online dream world, where people hoped to run away from the harsh realities of life. But in the end, not facing life will only make things worse
    9. You are the Savior, not the Saved. You are the Knight in Shining Armor, not the Damsel in Distress
    10. Soup kitchen(Heaven) or Work(Reincarnation)? Be a Giver, not a Taker. Happiness is a by-product of Work. Thru work you find fulfillment, joy, happiness and God.
    11. Justice(Reincarnation) not Vengeance(Hell). If a child is abducted, raped and killed, does torturing the rapist in hell do anything for that Child? That Child never got to grow up, enjoy parents love, go to school, hang out with friends, first crushes, first dances, college, a career, fall in love, marriage, kids, grandkids! - all the joys of life that she never got to enjoy! Only Reincarnation can do justice
    12. No more religious hate and division. Reincarnation teaches us that in this life you may be born a Hindu, but in the next life you maybe a Muslim, a Christian or an Atheist. Hate based on religion is difficult to sustain when one realizes this essential Truth - which is one of the reasons Hinduism is known for its tolerance and acceptance.
    13. 3 ways to deal with Pain and Suffering
    a) Run Away & Hide (Heaven)
    b) Cut all Desires
    c) Face it, Fight it! Defeat it! Make the world a better place! Make God Proud!(Reincarnation)
    14. Nobody said making God Proud would be easy. A parent has two kids - one sits at home, doing nothing, good for nothing except indulging in self-gratification(Heaven). The other goes out into the world doing great things - fighting poverty, trying to find a cure for disease, fighting climate change, animal abuse, sexism, racism, Terrorism, is reaching for the stars with Science, is reaching for the Hand of God! God looks down and says, "That's my Child!"
    15. Reach for the Hand of God! The next Gandhiji, Einstein, Mozart, MS Subbalaxmi, Lincoln will all be those who chose Reincarnation! The reward of Reincarnation is Greatness, to be called a God!
