Hinduism Beliefs in Reincarnation

Vijay Kumar:
Hinduism beliefs in reincarnation are primarily governed by our personal belief... faith in life! For a serious seeker of spirituality reincarnation in Hinduism (also termed Punarjanma) stands for our soul atman manifesting one form after another. For travellers of spiritual path the concept of reincarnation as detailed in various dictionaries and encyclopedias was flawed.

Something that can never die... how could it rebirth in a new body! Reincarnation... rebirth can occur only if our soul atman went through cycle of life and death! As per sacred Bhagavad Gita of Hinduism... our soul atman... the spirit within is indestructible... can neither be created or destroyed! In the circumstances how could our soul atman reincarnate... rebirth!

A soul is termed atman in Hinduism.

Hinduism reincarnation for a religious follower meant human form reincarnating again and again! This concept of reincarnation is totally flawed! Our body... the human form does not have any existence in cosmic system! Our soul atman is the absolute master and controller of human body and not vice versa. It is not within the capability of human body to manifest a soul atman!

For a follower of religious path... human form is the end of all! Prompted by a bloated ego human beings failed to realize that the journey of life always belonged to our soul atman... and never the manifest human form! When our soul atman never dies... the question of our soul atman taking a new body does not arise. Nothing like Punarjanma existed in cosmic system.

Death of body as per sacred Bhagavad Gita of Hinduism was as simple as changing of guards at Buckingham Palace. Similar as a student of class one jumps to class two... after death of mortal body our soul atman manifested a new form... the entire cycle of life for a soul atman always remaining one single span of life!

As detailed in sacred Bhagavad Gita of Hinduism... the entire life journey of a soul atman is one single span of life (the entire cosmic span of 96.4 million earthly years)! In its lifetime every soul atman manifested 8.4 million bodies to work out its karma... remove dross impurities within! Human beings gaining enlightenment announced our soul atman reaching 8.4 millionth manifestation... last in cosmic life cycle!

The significance of insect life, plant life and animal life is immense on cosmic path! Unless our soul atman manifested insect, plant and animal form... it would never reach stage of human manifestation! Our soul atman manifested human life for the first time after crossing through 7.3 million manifestations in insect, plant and animal form!

In human form alone we have 1.1 million manifestations before our soul atman finally regained its lost original pure prime pristine primordial form! Human beings gaining enlightenment (kaivalya jnana) announced our soul atman reaching 8.4 millionth manifestation and finally liberating self from cycle of birth and death forever.

As detailed in Bhagavad Gita Hindu reincarnation cycle explained the cosmic essence of life! It is through a chain of 8.4 million manifestations our soul atman finally liberated self from cycle of birth and death forever... reaching abode of God... kingdom of God (termed Vaikuntha in Hinduism). The moment human beings left the mortal frame... one attained salvation (moksha) forever!

Reincarnation beliefs as detailed in Bhagavad Gita form summum bonum of spirituality! It is understanding reincarnation cycle as detailed in Hinduism human beings finally became aware of spiritual life! For a serious seeker of spirituality understanding crux of Hinduism reincarnation facts is an absolute must!

As per Bhagavad Gita... our soul atman initially manifested form of an amoeba (single cell formation)... the first manifestation in cosmic life cycle! Subsequently it further evolved into multi-cell formation... then insect life, plant life, animal life and finally forms of human beings! Precepts of reincarnation are best understood following Bhagavad Gita of Hinduism.

The significance of insect life, plant life and animal life can be best understood by a follower of spiritual path... never path of religion... path of rituals! It is only by travelling spiritual path one finally understood what Hindu reincarnation was all about! The spiritual path is best travelled understanding pearls of wisdom contained in sacred Bhagavad Gita.

Bhagavad Gita shlokas on reincarnation makes it absolutely clear that our soul atman... the spirit within was the absolute master and controller of human body! Our soul atman manifested human form to free itself of the bondages of ephemeral life forever. Human beings reaching stage of enlightenment announced our soul atman... the spirit within gaining absolute purity!

If we truly desire gaining enlightenment in present life time... one needs understanding doctrine behind Hinduism reincarnation cycle! Our realizing that we are a soul atman on its cosmic journey of 8.4 million manifestations... an earthly life cycle of 96.4 million earthly years is realizing true essence of life in its entirety!
