“REBIRTH” - A MYTH OR A REALITY , Part 1


Birth, death and rebirth fall in a sequence.  Birth is not a theory, it is a truth.  Death is also a truth.  “Rebirth” hangs in the balance.   While a section of the religion strongly support rebirth, another section is strongly refuting.  So far,  nobody could prove rebirth beyond all elements of doubt.  Now, you decide yourself who is right and who is wrong?  The problem is that rebirth is not a phenomenon like birth and death which can be experienced and/or got convinced.   As a result, religions fall back to hunches and conjectures.  Hence before you read further, please bear in mind that the topic ‘Rebirth’ is indeed very complex and complicated.
Surprisingly, Shakthiveda Wellness Mission is coming up with a third theory.  Shakthiveda is neither supporting nor refuting rebirth.  Shakthiveda claims it is not actually rebirth that is happening; instead the soul is being replicated at the mother’s womb.  When the male and female energies meet at the mother’s womb, a marvelous synthesis takes place.  In the process, subject to the conditions prevailing at a given time, either the mother’s soul or the father’s soul replicates.  The child gets the soul either from the mother or father as the case may be.  Replication is like lighting a lamp from another lamp.  The first lamp is not affected by this process or the new lamp becomes weak.  Both remain with even power.
Shakthiveda would say instead of rebirth, generations come into existence.  We have no hindrance to accept the theory of generation.  A person could be a European, Japanese or American in the previous birth according to rebirth theory.  Then his present ancestors are irrelevant to him.  Isn’t it?  Such a person will have no connection with his present ancestors because his ancestors as per theory of rebirth could be warming up in some foreign country if they are still alive.  In this way there is no truce to find out our predecessor in terms of rebirth whereas replication and theory of generations are straight forward facts.
Modern science is following the gene theory.  It is same as theory of generation through replication.  Hence both of these theories are complementary to each other.  At the same time modern science has not accepted the theory of rebirth as explained by various religions.
As per Hindu mythology, an animal can be reborn as human being.  This is not possible according to the study reports of Shakthiveda Wellness Mission.  It has been found that the soul of humans have 9 layers whereas the soul of all animals got only one layer.  It is technically impossible for an animal soul to evolve to a human soul.   Another disparity is that the animal souls live as per natural instincts but human beings possess special intellectual powers.  Transformation and adaptation in this sphere is not possible.  As mentioned, animals live according to the nature’s instinct and their souls also melt into nature at the time of death.  That is why when a fruit decays, automatically worms show up on its own.  These worms originate from nature as nature already contains the gene.
Since the animals live strictly according to the instinct of nature, animals never commit sin in their life.  Therefore, there is no need to undergo punishment after death or there is need for life after death for animals.
If rebirth is true, why do we go on performing death rituals year after year indefinitely?  If the soul is reborn, according to the theory of rebirth, there is absolutely no need for the annual rituals to continue endlessly.  For whom are you doing the annual rituals?  Think !
