Book Description
Reincarnation is the religious or philosophical concept that the soul or spirit, after biological death, begins life in a new body that may be human, animal or spiritual depending on the moral quality of the previous life's actions. This doctrine is a central tenet of several religions including Buddhism and Hinduism. It is also a common belief of various ancient and modern religions such as Spiritism, Theosophy, and Eckankar and is found in many tribal societies around the world.

THE JUSTICE OF REINCARNATION The Contrasting Theories of the Soul and Its Future Life--Doctrine of Reincarnation the Only Philosophical Theory that Reconciles Facts with Theory--The Law of Karma Automatic and Enforces Itself--Every One Their Own Judge and the Executor of Their Own Destiny THE ARGUMENT FOR REINCARNATION Natural Laws Universal--If the Soul is Immortal, it Must Have Always Been So--A Mortal Thing Cannot be Made Immortal Any More Than Nothing Can be Made Something--Future Life Implies Past Life--Varient Experiences Necessary for the Soul's Education--Advancement Necessary to Enjoyment of the Soul's Higher States of Being THE PROOFS OF REINCARNATION Actual Proofs of Personal Conscious Experience Demanded by Science--Such Proofs Possible and Have Occurred to Many of the Race--The Remembrance of the Details of Past Existence Common to the Race--Interesting Cases Given on Good Authority--Messages from the Past.

The Power & Intelligence of Karma & Reincarnation
Author: Dharma
Publisher: Balboa Press
ISBN: 1452594899
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 317
Book Description
In the distant past, life was pretty harsh - most work was manual labor, medicine was primitive and there was little law & order - the perfect opening to religions that promised an easy afterlife. Life was mocked as sin, "up there" awaited a magical land of plenty. These religions kept us weak, God made in the image of the local King reduced followers down to slaves/servants, down on their knees begging for mercy and seeking pity. This book asks for a paradigm change - are we still weak? Do we still think we can just run away from problems? This book is for the Strong, the Warrior, for those who see Life as a Great Gift from God, God as our Teacher, as we build the paradise right here on Earth and make Her Proud of us! Create & build a great Future for all life on earth. Only Reincarnation gives us such an opportunity.

Bad Karma
Author: William Garrett (Ph. D.)
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Body, Mind & Spirit
Languages : en
Pages : 248
Book Description
Bad Karma: Thinking Twice About the Social Consequences of Reincarnation Theory is a cautionary study set in the context of the history of ideas. The thesis of the book is that rising popularity of reincarnation theory in American culture poses a significant danger- especially in light of the dramatic transitions brought about by the globalization of corporate values in the 21st century. America faces an immediate future in which displacement and social stratification will be a prominent feature of the social life. Viewed through the prism of reincarnation theory, desperate poverty may come to be seen not as an outrage to justice, but as an expression of justice- justice on a "deeper" level. Those born into wretched circumstances will be seen as having made choices as to their birth; brutal and deprived lives will be seen as people "working out their karma." The book opens with a philosophical analysis of the doctrines of both reincarnation and karma. The history of the doctrines in India will be reviewed, and various emergences of reincarnation doctrine in the West will be presented. Special attention brought to why none of these emergences took root in Western culture. Finally, the development of Buddhism in America is assessed, with special attention given to whether an American version of Buddhism necessarily entails a belief in reincarnation.

Buddhism and Science

Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 208
Book Description
One of the basic doctrines of the Buddhist teachings is the law of karma. What is the law of karma? Science believes that an animal and a human are the result of the biological evolution theory developed by Charles Darwin. Buddhism believes that the animal and human are the result of reincarnation. In fact, the animals and humans are the result of evolution and reincarnation. In other words, living beings are the result of biological and psychological development, because both the animal and human consist of body and mind. A soul appeared when the sentient beings emerged in the universe and with this information about the actions-karma taken during their life. This information persists in the soul. Even if the karma does not grow in this life, either happiness or suffering, after the death of the animal and human the soul with karma doesn't die or fade away. It is reborn in one of the 6 animal species of the non-eternal universe depending on their karma, and still exists in the universe from one birth to another birth. If people develop their minds and healthy actions , they may arise in rebirth and even reborn as the Buddha or God. If people have an unhealthy mind, the actions that they take can to reduce their rebirth and even be reborn as hell, as a devil.Buddhist teachings describe it as the law of karma. Karma is the seed of mental, physical and verbal actions. Generally speaking, karma covers all the information about the actions committed by the living creatures, in their past and present lifetime.Until now, not only ordinary people but even scientists have not believed and accepted the law of karma. This is the main reason some people say that the Buddhist religion makes people stupid and some religions say that the Buddhist religion is misleading people. This is due to lack of scientific evidence for the law of karma. We have proved and verified the existence of the law of karma in this book with the help of Set theory and quantum physics. The book contains 3 parts and 15 chapters. In the first part, we have proved and verified the law of karma by using Set theory, while the following two conditions: first, the existence of three types of things in a non-eternal universe: matter / body, spirit / mind and imperfect cluster elements (body-mind), second, the occurrence of separation of mind and body when people and animals die.In the second part, we proved and verified the first condition and the soul with karma continues to exist in Samsara as the Wheel of Dharma or exists as the law of motion of animated matter-soul. And we demonstrate that the Buddhist philosophy has a dualist and dialectic character. In the Part 3, we proved and verified the second condition that the body and mind of humans and animals are separated, when they die by using Quantum physics, and it has an empirical testament and its own unique interpretation. Also, we demonstrate that the life is rational combination of evolution and reincarnation. The Buddhist philosophy assumes that there are non-eternal and eternal universes and they have their own objects and phenomena. We demonstrate that there are non-eternal, eternal and neutral universe and describe their facts and phenomena.At the end, we demonstrate the Buddhist teachings about how to reduce the suffering and improve the happiness and rebirth and enlightenment as well as three levels.The Buddha Gautama found the natural law of karma or the origin, development, degradation and death of living creatures through enlightenment over 2,500 years ago. But people have studied it as a religious doctrine in this period due to the lack of scientific evidence. At this time, we have proved the law, therefore, our duty is to extend this knowledge to people regardless of their religion. Learning about the law of karma is not only useful for personal development, but also vital to improve the ethics and morality of human social development.
