Logos 22

Goto table of logos


In truth, death concerns only the body and not the spiritual soul which is itself immortal. Our next life is fixed by the natural laws of God. We are, indeed, spiritual souls.

The spiritual soul, infinitesimal, remains invisible to the material eye. When the body of dense matter is destroyed, the ethereal body, composed of mind, intelligence and ego, continues to function, and at the time of death, this ethereal body carries the tiny soul to a another material body, which a new mother creates in her womb. The reincarnation of the soul is a very subtle process. Depending on the nature of the mind at the moment of death, the infinitesimal spiritual soul carried by the seed of a human or animal father takes refuge in the womb of a human or animal mother, which gives it a new human body. or animal. So we already existed in another form before the present life. The body that we will receive in our next life is the result of our current thoughts, words and actions and of the good or bad influence that drives us. We just change bodies based on our actions. Therefore, we have to develop the desire to know how to end this cycle, how to find our original spiritual body. Being aware of Krishna, God, enables us to know this truth and act on it. In this way we will be sure not to return in our next life in the form of an animal.

God says: He who knows the absolute of My Coming and of My Acts will no longer have to be reborn in the material universe; leaving his body, he enters My eternal kingdom. Whoever knows Me as I am is freed from death and rebirth.

To know God, one must first rise to the spiritual level where one acquires the necessary intelligence. And whoever succeeds will never have to take back a material body again. He returns to his original home, with God, to live there eternally without ever changing his body.

At the moment of death, the pure soul finds its spiritual body again.

Death is inevitable for every incarnate spiritual being, but the spiritual soul itself never dies, being entirely distinct from the material body in which it has sojourned. The idea I will die someday originates from ignorance of data relating to existential truth, for the soul does not undergo the bodily phases of non-existence, birth, existence and death. When the subtle mental covering of the body is destroyed by transcendental knowledge, spiritual knowledge, the soul within the body again shows its original identity, thus realizing its true identity as a spiritual being. The material body which results from the fusion of the three attributes and modes of influence of material nature; virtue, passion and ignorance, appears at birth and displays life for a certain time, a period determined by the Supreme Lord. Finally, the combination of the three attributes and modes of influence of material nature dissolves and the body suffers death.
