Friends, participating in question/answer session acts as a tonic for my spiritual development. One such recent experience ,I try to share
with you through this blog. Here is summary of Gurudeo's answer to
one devotee's question for life after death in eyes of Jainism.
"Brothers as a human we are always fascinated by this sort of query
Unfortunately even with advanced science till date with our current limited knowledge ,we neither know both where from we came and where will go. But with help with "Jinwani "made available to us by
kind gesture of Mahaveer Bhagwan,we can guess it.
Friends Jainism firmly believes in life after death. In fact it can be
lives unless one gets salvation. Jainism rejects the theory which say current is the only one life and there will be no life after this. To
support Jainism theory, I will discuss it with you. My references are
based on two chapters of "Bhagwatisutra".They are chapters with number 05/03 and 12/07. Let us discuss them in brief.
In 05/03 Shatak Bhagwan has informed three basics as a fixed rule.
1.-All lives of a soul are interconnected as a chain. A new circle to said chain is being added by current actions of soul mind & organs.
It is a ongoing process till actions of a particular life cut off all
possibilities of adding new Karmas and by nullifying all Karmas.
Actions of last life add it's carry forward of positive and negatives
Karmas balance to it's Karman Sharir ( body) of current life.
2.-New life and it's place is being determined by overall actions of
current life. The time is unknown to the individual. Said fixed life
term, out of four Gati (class), begins immediately when the soul
leaves current body by the process termed as death. The life fixation
moment is being termed as "Aayushyaband Aakarsh".
3-Soul gets same Leshya (sentiments, feeling or emotions) in which
it leaves body at the time of death. A calm. peaceful and quite facial expressions of deceased gives the indications of high class birth. It
probably may be in Jyotishi or Vemanikdeo Gati.
4-12/07-It says a soul has done countless cycles before current life.
It gives five reasons for it. Permanent universe, universe without a
beginning (Anandi),permanent nature of each and every soul, many
and numerous ways of fixing of Karmas. Such numerous fixing of Karmas, makes life cycles unlimited. Since as a rule no Moksha
or salvation is possible without their full clearance by a soul.
5.-In 01/08 chapter Bhagwan has classified all souls in three class.
They are Bal, Balpandit and Pandit. Bal means who do not follow
Jainism. They can go to any one of 4 Gati. Balpandit mean Shrawak
.They can go only to Vemanikdeogati. Pandit means a Sadhu who
follow Bhagwan's Jainism in Toto. They can get either salvation or
can take birth in Vemanikdeo ,It is regarded as best position.
Friends so do not get trapped in wrong faith. Your any tiny action is
responsible to shape your destiny and future lives Just think, if one life is sufficient to give rewards and punishments for good deeds and bad deeds ? . No it cannot be. So take shelter of Jinwani and try to live current life. Otherwise there will be a long much difficult
transformation from one to other Gati. No one like to have births of goat, fish or hen where brutal death is certain. We are fortunate to have known the reasons which add to further cycles of life and death. So avoid it and plan for early salvation " Gurudeo concluded.
