Original Message Transmigration of the Soul is part of the science of the soul, the self. The first lesson taught by Krishna in the Bhagavad-gita is that we are not the body but are eternal souls. At the end of this life, we will transmigrate, or take birth in another body, according to our past activities. The main purpose of life is to get free from birth and death. To do this, one must first understand that he is passing through different lives. Then he must change his activities in this life so that he can get free from material desires and go back to Godhead. Transmigration of the Soul, therefore, is a very serious study. The current interest in reincarnation is good—provided it leads to the right understanding. Reincarnation is not actually the proper term, because for some people this implies coming back as a Human each and every time. But the Vedas make it very clear, sometimes we take birth in higher bodies, sometimes we take birth in lower bodies. The goal is to stop taking birth in the material world all together and achieve an eternal ever lasting body full of Eternity, Knowledge, and Bliss.

Today's sensational and inaccurate literatures on the subject become a disservice, however, when serious thinkers are repelled from what they have come to see as a kind of occultism or dilettantism. Transmigration of the Soul should be properly studied through the Bhagavad-gita and not through different fads or through persons who have no authorized direction.

For those interested in transmigration of the soul, the Vedic literatures are worth investigating. Rather than limit oneself to empirical data from modern researchers, one should consult Shrimad Bhagavatam and Bhagavad-gita for a clear understanding of Transmigration of the Soul and the specific importance and responsibility of the human form of life. As Socrates said, "The unexamined life is not worth living." And an essential part of one's life to examine is one's death. What happens at this critical time? Is there a next life? If so, how can we assure the best next life for ourselves? Certainly any introspective, openminded investigation into the subject of reincarnation would be incomplete without careful study of Vedic writings like Shrimad Bhagavatam and Bhagavad-gita.


"
For the soul there is neither birth nor death at any time. He has not come into being, does not come into being, and will not come into being. He is unborn, eternal, ever-existing and primeval. He is not slain when the body is slain. . . . The soul can never be cut into pieces by any weapon, nor burned by fire, nor moistened by water, nor withered by the wind. . . . It is said that the soul is invisible, inconceivable, and immutable. Knowing this, you should not grieve for the body.
"
-Krishna

(Bg. 2.20 [link to vedabase.net] 2.23 [link to vedabase.net] 2.25 [link to vedabase.net] )


The best way to settle the matter is to go directly to the source—the earliest mention of transmigration of the soul. Fortunately, the earliest records of transmigration are also the most philosophically complete. They're found in the Vedic Sanskrit literature written around 3,000 B.C. In India.

The Vedic view of reincarnation is clearly explained in the Bhagavad-gita, which is universally accepted as the essence of Vedic spiritual knowledge. In the Gita, the Supreme Lord Krishna enlightens His student and friend Arjuna in the science of self-realization, beginning with a lucid presentation of the process of transmigration of the soul.

The following information is taken from Peter Ramster's very important book, In Search of Lives Past (1990) and from a speech he gave to the Australian Hypnotherapists ninth National Convention at the Sydney Sheraton Wentworth Hotel on the 27th March, 1994 and from the films he made on reincarnation.

In 1983 he produced a stunning television documentary in which four women from Sydney, who had never been out of Australia, gave details under hypnosis of their past lives. Then, accompanied by television cameras and independent witnesses, they were taken to the other side of the world.

One of the subjects involved was Gwen MacDonald, a staunch skeptic before her regression. She remembered a life in Somerset between 1765-82. Many facts about her life in Somerset which would be impossible to get out of a book were confirmed in front of witnesses when she was taken there:

• when taken blindfolded to the area in Somerset she knew her way around perfectly although she had never been out of Australia
• she was able to correctly point out in three directions the location of villages she had known
• she was able to direct the film crew as to the best ways to go far better than the maps
• she knew the location of a waterfall and the place where stepping stones had been. The locals confirmed that the stepping stones had been removed about 40 years before
• she pointed out an intersection where she claimed that there had been five houses. Enquiries proved that this was correct and that the houses had been torn down 30 years before and that one of the houses had been a 'cider house' as she claimed
• she knew correctly names of villages as they were 200 years ago even though on modern maps they do not exist or their names have been changed
• the people she claimed that she knew were found to have existed?one was listed in the records of the regiment she claimed he belonged to
• she knew in detail of local legends which were confirmed by Somerset historians
• she used correctly obscure obsolete west country words no longer in use, no longer even in dictionaries, words like 'tallet' meaning a loft
• she knew that the local people called Glastonbury Abbey 'St Michaels'—a fact that was only proved by reading an obscure 200 year old history book not available in Australia
• she was able to correctly describe the way a group of Druids filed up Glastonbury Hill in a spiral for their spring ritual, a fact unknown to most university historians
• she knew that there were two pyramids in the grounds of Glastonbury Abbey which have long since disappeared
• she correctly described in Sydney carvings that were found in an obscure old house 20 feet from a stream, in the middle of five houses about one and a half miles from Glastonbury Abbey
• she had been able to draw in detail in Sydney the interior of her Glastonbury house which was found to be totally correct
• she described an inn that was on the way to the house. It was found to be there
• she was able to lead the team direct to the house which is now a chicken shed. No-one knew what was on the floor until it was cleaned. However on the floor they found the stone that she had drawn in Sydney
• the locals would come in every night to quiz her on local history?she knew the answers to all the questions they were asking such as the local problem which was a big bog—cattle were being lost there.

Cynthia Henderson, another subject of Peter Ramster, remembered a life during the French Revolution. When under trance she:

• spoke in French without any trace of an accent
• understood and answered questions put to her in French
• used dialect of the time
• knew the names of streets which had changed and were only discoverable on old maps.

Peter Ramster has many other documented cases of past life regression which in very clear terms constitute technical evidence for the existence of the afterlife.



"I am confident that there truly is such a thing as living again, that the living spring from the dead, and that the souls of the dead are in existence."
-Socrates


"The soul comes from without into the human body, as into a temporary abode, and it goes out of it anew ... it passes into other habitations, for the soul is immortal. "
-Ralph Waldo Emerson
Journals of Ralph Waldo Emerson


"I did not begin when I was born, nor when I was conceived. I have been growing, developing, through incalculable myriads of millenniums.... All my previous selves have their voices, echoes, promptings in me.... Oh, incalculable times again shall I be born."
-Jack London
The Star Rover


"There is no death. How can there be death if everything is part of the Godhead? The soul never dies and the body is never really alive."

"He saw all these forms and faces in a thousand relationships ... become newly born. Each one was mortal, a passionate, painful example of all that is transitory. Yet none of them died, they only changed, were always reborn, continually had a new face: only time stood between one face and another."
-Herman Hesse,

Siddhartha


" 'Do you have any idea how many lives we must have gone through before we even got the first idea that there is more to life than eating, or fighting, or power in the Flock? A thousand lives, Jon, ten thousand! ... We choose our next world through what we learn in this one.... But you, Jon, learned so much at one time that you didn't have to go through a thousand lives to reach this one.' "
-Richard Bach
Jonathan Livingston Seagull


"As we live through thousands of dreams in our present life, so is our present life only one of many thousands of such lives which we enter from the other more real life ... and then return after death. Our life is but one of the dreams of that more real life, and so it is endlessly, until the very last one, the very real the life of God."
-Count Leo Tolstoy

Krishna says, "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. The endeavoring transcendentalists, who are situated in self-realization, can see all this clearly. But those whose minds are not developed and who are not situated in self-realization cannot see what is taking place, though they may try to."

A soul fortunate enough to obtain a human body should seriously endeavor for self-realization, to understand the principles of Transmigration of the Soul and become free from repeated birth and death. We can't afford not to.
