Are We Immortal? (eBook, ePUB)

Beschreibung

The answer is yes. Am I body or soul? When we say, it is my body, it is my hand, it is my car or it is my house, etc., it means that I own these things (including my body). So I cannot be these things. So I am soulwhen the soul gets out of the body at the time of death, although all its parts are present but nonfunctional. Whole body is either cremated or buried, which eventually disintegrates. Some of us believe in reincarnation or rebirth. Dr. Ian Stevenson of the Department of Psychology and Neurology, University of Virginia, has studied three thousand cases as of 1987 from all parts of the world. Each one of them said, I remember my previous life, and verified by Dr. Stevenson and published. (Refer it in my chapter Rebirth, Chapter Characteristics of soul.) It is self-exemplified and other quotations from Hindu scriptures. The soul, to begin with, was pure as 24-carat gold. But after when it gets in the body of living beings and especially human body, it becomes impure due to good and bad actions (karma). Then it needs to be pure again in order to be immortal. For this it needs Gods grace, prayer, meditation, and other means to mingle with God as water of Rivers merge with water of sea and become salty water as of the sea.
