Simple Proofs of Reincarnation

1. The body is temporary but the soul is eternal. Accept this fact? Yes?. When this body is finished the soul must continue to exist as it's eternal. And just as the soul is currently residing in this body, when this body is finished the soul will continue to exist by residing in another body.

"Never was there a time when I did not exist, nor you, nor all these kings; nor in the future shall any of us cease to be. As the embodied soul continuously passes, in this body, from boyhood to youth to old age, the soul similarly passes into another body at death. A sober person is not bewildered by such a change." (Lord Krishna Bg. 2.12-13)

2.  Every second living beings are dying and every second living beings are born. The souls in the dead bodies are being transferred to the new bodies. This is proof of the  transmigration of the soul from one body to another, reincarnation.

3. In scientific terms, energy cannot be destroyed, but it can change forms. Our body is the form and we (the soul) are the energy. When this current form of ours (this body) is destroyed. We (the soul) will change our form. Thus get a new body.

"As a person puts on new garments, giving up old ones, the soul similarly accepts new material bodies, giving up the old and useless ones.  The soul can never be cut to pieces by any weapon, nor burned by fire, nor moistened by water, nor withered by the wind.  This individual soul is unbreakable and insoluble, and can be neither burned nor dried. He is everlasting, present everywhere, unchangeable, immovable and eternally the same. (Lord Krishna Bg. 2.22-24)

4. Another simple proof is to take a look around. Why are there variety of living beings? Why is one soul in the body of an animal and another soul in a human body. Why is one soul in the body of a female and another in a male body. Why is one soul born in China and another born in Africa and so on. The soul is moving from one body to another, life after life. The variations of bodies is simple proof of the transmigration of the soul from one body to another, reincarnation.

5. The fact that everyone is born in different situations is proof of karma and reincarnation. The non-Vedic religions reject reincarnation. if there is no transmigration of the soul from one body to another then this means this is the one and only life. If this is the only life then why is everyone born in different situations? One is born black, one white, one is born poor, another rich, why are some born diseased and some healthy,  Why do some live to 100 and some for a day. And so on. They cannot answer any of these questions. 

6. The fact that God is forgiving and merciful is proof of reincarnation. If God is forgiving and merciful then why  would he create some who are fortunate and some who are unfortunate in their one and only life. If after this one and only life we eternally go to hell or heaven which is what the non-Vedic religions preach. Then how can God be forgiving and merciful to those who are eternally sent to hell for messing up their one and only life. The fact that God is forgiving and merciful is proof that he gives us unlimited chances and not just one. Thus we (the soul) transmigrate from one body to another life after life, reincarnation.

Basically we live forever (in different bodies) and not just once. 

As there is only one light in the whole Universe, the Sun. There is only one scripture that is the light of spiritual knowledge. The Bhagavad-Gita.

Who Exactly Is God?

First we have to know the Qualities of God

God is the most powerful person, no one can defeat God in anyway.

God is the most beautiful person, no one is more beautiful than God.

God is the most loving person, he is the nicest guy around. 

God is the most merciful person, he doesn't send anyone eternally to hell.

God is the most forgiving person, he gives us unlimited chances (reincarnation).

God is the most caring person, he even cares for the animals like cows, pigs, chickens etc. (vegetarianism).

God is the most fair person, we are rewarded or punished based on our own actions (karma). 

God is the most just person, he doesn't make one suffer or enjoy for no reason (karma).

God is the most efficient person, he doesn't keep the dead waiting (reincarnation).

God is the most responsible person, he doesn't order his followers to hate others.

The Vedic scriptures, Srimad Bhagavtam and Bhagavad-Gita. Are the only scriptures on the Planet that completely describes a person who proved without a doubt that he has all the above qualities. That person is Lord Krishna.

Does God have a Form?

Some people believe that God is formless and thus cannot be seen. Does it make any sense to follow someone who has never been seen and who will never be seen?

You have a form, I have a form, even the plants and animals have a form, and so if God can give us a form, then why can’t he take a form for himself? Are we greater than God?

It is said that everything comes from God:

We have a form, because God has one.

We are beautiful to some degree, because God is all beautiful.

We are powerful to some degree, because God is all powerful.

We have some knowledge, because God has all knowledge.

We have some intelligence, because God has all intelligence.

We are merciful to some degree, because God is all merciful.

We are loving to some degree, because God is all loving.

We are peaceful to some degree, because God is all peaceful.

We are caring to some degree, because God is all caring.

We can remember some things from our childhood, because God can remember everything from everyone's past.

God Is Great

People say God is great, but unfortunately they do not know how great God is. Lord Krishna in his Maha Vishnu form, has millions of Universes coming out of his body with every exhalation, and with every inhalation, millions of Universes go back into his body. There are trillions of Planets with living beings and the highest Planet in the material creation is called Satayaloka, where one single day is 8.64 billion earth years and the life span of the living beings on Satyaloka is trillions of years.

The Sun is situated in one place but the sunshine is everywhere in the Universe. Similaraly Lord Krishna is situated in one place, but he is also present on each of the trillions of Planets. He is present in the heart of every living being as the super soul and he is also present in the atom. This is how great God is.

What does God look like?

This question can only be answered by the Vedic scriptures.

* Lord Krishna’s original form is just like a human being. Even the Christian Bible states that man is made in the image of God. This means that God is a person with two hands, 2 legs and so on. That person is Lord Krishna.

* His complexion is dark-blue, like that of a rain filled cloud.

* His eyes are like lotus petals.

* He is ever youthful.

* He is full of bliss and his beauty excels that of thousand of cupids.

* He likes to play the flute.

* He wears a peacock feather in his crown.

* He wears the Kaustubha jewel around his neck.

* He wears yellow garments.

Can God be worshipped in an Image Form?

For millions of years, humans have been worshipping God in an image form, so why is it all of a sudden wrong to worship God in an image form?

God has been creating humans who worship him in the image form for millions of years. Is God a fool?

God created the rules for humans to follow at creation, billions of years ago and not just a few thousands years ago.

The Vedic knowledge was passed down from Lord Vishnu (an incarnation of Lord Krishna) at creation to Brahma, the first living being. Then Brahma passed it down to his children and so on in disciplic succession down to the most recent prophet of God. Srila Prabhupada, the founder of ISKCON. The Vedic religion is based on unlimited prophets and not just one. God is unlimited and all-powerful and so he can send unlimited prophets, and not just one.

It is important to understand that the Vedic scriptures authorize God’s image, thus Lord Krishna’s deity, to be worshipped and not any image.

There is only one living being who very strongly declared himself as the supreme. That person is Lord Krishna.

Lord Krishna declared himself as the Supreme Father:

“It should be understood that all species of life, o son of Kunti, are made possible by birth in this material nature, and that I am the seed giving father” (Bhagavad-Gita 14.4)

Lord Krishna declared himself as the Supreme Creator:

“Furthermore, O Arjuna, I am the generating seed of all existences. There is no being, moving or unmoving, that can exist without me” (Bhagavad-Gita 10.39)

Lord Krishna declared himself as the Supreme Controller:

"I give heat, and I withhold and send forth the rain" (Bhagavad-Gita 9.19)

“With a single fragment of myself I pervade and support this entire universe”(Bhagavad-Gita 10.42)

Lord Krishna declared himself as the Supreme Maintainer:

“I enter into each planet, and by my energy they stay in orbit” (Bhagavad-Gita 15.13)

Lord Krishna is Omnipresent: meaning he is present everywhere.

“I am the supersoul, O Arjuna, seated in the hearts of all living entities, I am the beginning, the middle, and the end of all beings” ( Bhagavad-Gita 10.20)

Lord Krishna is omnipotent, meaning he is the greatest:

"There is no truth beyond Me. Everything rests upon Me, as pearls are strung on a thread"(Bhagavad-Gita 7.7)

Lord Krishna is Omniscient: meaning he knows the past, present, and the future:

“O Arjuna, I know everything that has happened in the past, all that is happening in the present, and all things that are yet to come. I also know all living entities" (Bhagavad-Gita 7.26)

“Many, many births both you and I have passed. I can remember all of them, but you cannot!"(Bhagavad-Gita 4.5)

Lord Krishna declared himself as the Only God:

“Those who are devotees of other gods and who worship them with faith actually worship only me, O son of Kunti, but they do so in a wrong way. I am the only enjoyer and master of all sacrifices. Therefore, those who do not recognize my true transcendental nature fall down.” (Bhagavad-Gita 9.24)

"Abandon all varieties of religion and just surrender unto Me. I shall deliver you from all sinful reactions. Do not fear." (Bhagavad-Gita 18.66)

What’s the Proof that Krishna is God?

Anyone can claim to be God, but who can actually prove it?

In each incarnation, Lord Krishna proved without any doubt that he was God. Full details on all the miracles performed by Lord Krishna can be found in the Srimad Bhagavatam.

Lord Krishna performed miracles that no other being can perform:

The Purpose of Life

The purpose of human life is to enquire:

Who am I?

Where have I come from?

What will happen to me at death?

Why do I suffer?

Why do others suffer?

Who is God?

How can I serve God?

Why is there variety of living beings?

How can I get out this cycle of birth, old age, disease, and death?

How can I live eternally?

Only the human beings enquire, the animals do not enquire. Unfortunately at the present time many humans have become two legged animals.

Give up lust, greed, and anger. These force us to sin and the result is hellish life in this life and the lives after.

Give up the killing of animals, especially the cows. The animals are also our brothers and sisters. This means no meat eating and no leather (car seats, sofas, clothing).

Human birth is rare, we have to make the best use of it by not engaging in sinful activities. The sinful activities are being greedy, lusty, angry, and violence against other living beings (animals and humans).  

Don’t waste this life by getting attached to the bodily platform of life (meat eating, lust, greed, anger, partying, discoing, bollywood and so on). This body is just one drop in the ocean of bodies that we are going through. A sword is hanging over y our head. It will fall at any moment. All your properties, cars, and big bank balance won't help you at the time of death. Only your service to Lord Krishna will count at death. So make the best use of this precious life by serving Lord Krishna.  All your physics, chemistry, math, computing, and business knowledge will be completely erased at death. Only spiritual knowledge will go with you, and the top most spiritual knowledge is the Bhagavad-Gita.  So don't waste precious  time, read the Bhagavad-Gita, listen to the Bhagavad-Gita, and watch the Bhagavad-Gita.

We are the soul and not this body. The body is temporary but the soul is eternal and immortal. Our aim in life should be to escape from fangs of material life (birth, old age, disease, and death). This can only be done by humans, who have the higher consciousness.

We can attain an immortal spiritual body full of bliss, knowledge, eternal, and without a trace of calamity if we follow the Bhagavad-Gita with seriousness.

The main teachings of the Bhagavad-Gita are:

- Be compassionate towards all living beings, thus love all living beings. This means don't be envious or hateful of others. Be friendly to others, be nice to others, be kind to others, be generous to others, be merciful to others, be charitable to the needy. Don't cheat others, don't lie, don't steal, don't hurt others, don't drink, don't take drugs, don't eat meat, don't buy leather.

- This body you (the soul) are residing in, is temporary, but the real you, the soul, is eternal. Just as we change worn out clothes, jobs, houses, cars, partners, and so on. One day you will be forced to change your body too. So don't get too attached to this temporary body and material life. And just as a manufacturing company designs it's products today for production in the future. Similarly you are designing your next body with the actions you are taking now. So if you think let me enjoy now and forget about the future. Thus if you think your next life is not worth thinking about now. Then your next life will be that of nothing. You will take birth among the 8 million species of living beings below that of human beings (animal and plant kingdoms).

- There is only one person who without any doubt declared himself and proved that he was the Supreme Personality of God, Lord Krishna. Always think of him, worship him, and serve him. In this age of Kali, which means the age of ignorance, there will be so many godless people who will try to make you godless too.  Surrender onto the only proven God, Lord Krishna. Do you know anyone who can lift a mountain, expand himself into thousands of forms, show the whole Universe in his mouth, put out a forest fire by swallowing it, kill all the demonic and save people in this very life. Lord Krishna did all this. 

In this age of Kali, the age of ignorance and irreligion. There will be many imposters who will claim to be God or prophet of God and cheat innocent people. These imposters can only cheat people, they cannot  exhibit the potency of God. Only Lord Krishna proved himself to be the one true God.

What Happens After Death?

Only the Vedic scriptures answer this important question. At death, the person (the soul) is judged according to the actions taken in life (karma). And based on what the person deserves, the soul is immediately transferred to another body. Some souls transmigrate to animal bodies, some to human bodies. Some are born in China, some in Africa. Some are born diseased, some are born in poverty, some are born ugly, some are beautiful and so on.. The theory of the transmigration of the soul (reincarnation) is the truth. One can see the proof of reincarnation. Simply by looking around. Some are born in China, some in Africa. Every second, animals and humans are dying and every second animals and humans being born. This is proof of the transmigration of the soul from one body to another. Some are born diseased, some healthy. Some are born black, some white. Some are born in poverty, some in wealth, and so on...

"The living entity in the material world carries his different conceptions of life from one body to another as the air carries aromas. The living entity, thus taking another gross body, obtains a certain type of ear, tongue, and nose and sense of touch, which are grouped about the mind. He thus enjoys a particular set of sense objects. The foolish cannot understand how a living entity can quit his body, nor can they understand what sort of body he enjoys under the spell of the modes of nature. But one whose eyes are trained in knowledge can see all this."

(Lord Krishna, Bg. 15.8-10)

Who is the Supreme Person (God)?

Only the Bhagavad-Gita answers this basic and most important question. The Bhagavad-Gita is the  word of God in person. The oldest scripture on the Planet.

One can read the non-vedic scriptures for millions of years but will never know who the person God is. Simply by looking at the Bhagavad-Gita for 1 second, one can immediately see God. This is the difference between the Vedic (eternal) and non-vedic (recently created) scriptures.

"There is no truth superior to me." (Lord Krishna, Bg. 7.7)

“The whole cosmic order is under me. By my will it is manifested again and again, and by my will it is annihilated at the end” (Lord Krishna, Bhagavad-Gita 9.8)

“Furthermore, O Arjuna, I am the generating seed of all existences. There is no being, moving or unmoving, that can exist without me” (Lord Krishna, Bhagavad-Gita 10.39)

"I am the source of all spiritual and material worlds. Everything emanates from Me. The wise who perfectly know this engage in My devotional service and worship Me with all their hearts" (Lord Krishna, Bhagavad-Gita 10.8)

"Of all that is material and all that is spiritual in this world, know for certain that I am both the origin and the dissolution" (Lord Krishna, Bhagavad-Gita 7.6)

Knowing God means knowing his name, address, description, history, how he maintains and so on.

What is Religion?

The purpose of religion is to know and love God. You can only love someone if you know them. You cannot love an invisible or unknown person. Seeing is believing. Only the Vedic scriptures describe exactly who the person God is. The non-Vedic scriptures don't have a clue as to who God is. Loving God includes loving all God's creatures. This means loving all humans and animals. We don't eat our brothers and sisters, the animals are also our brothers and sisters. 

Does God want Blood?

The majority of people in the World. In this age of Kali, the age of ignorance. Seem to think that animal killing is prescribed by God. 

This is not so for the real God, Lord Krishna. He only wants your love and not the blood of living beings.

"If one offers me with love and devotion a leaf, a flower, fruit or water, I will accept it."  (Lord Krishna, Bg. 9.26)

Your death is certain

Your grandfather has died, you will also die, and your children will also die. Death is certain, it’s only a matter of time. Still you are madly accumulating money and working very hard all day like a donkey. You do not care for the soul which is eternal, but you care for the body which is temporary. This is ignorance. In ignorance the soul becomes degraded and after this life. Such people take birth as dogs and hogs. There are 8.4 million different bodies that the soul keeps circulating in, one after the other. The fools will not think of the life after this one. They will simply mate, eat, sleep, and be merry. This is animal mentality. The animals also mate, sleep, eat and be merry. The only difference between the animals and the humans is that humans enquire;

Who am I?

Where have I come from?

What will happen to me at death?

Why do I suffer?

Why do others suffer?

Who is God?

How can I serve God?

Why is there variety of living beings?

How can I get out this cycle of birth, old age, disease, and death?

How can I live eternally?
