I am very glad to have an enquiry by Rudy Otter. Please read my letters about “karma” dated 6-4-2013, and another letter about “reincarnation” – dated 20-4-2013, both in Asian Voice. His query is supplementary and complimentary to contents of above letters.
It is obvious that a person pursuing a virtuous life attains moksha, ie escape from cycle of birth, worry, illness, death and reincarnation. But that person must be absolutely selfless. Moksha is denied if one attaches pride, wish of reward, or sense of obliging the receiver. But moksha does not take centuries because soul that escapes from physical/gross matter vibrates at much more faster speeds. Thus century time is spanned in seconds.
Three possibilities that may happen after moksha:
- Soul stays in heavenly environs till good karma is exhausted. Then it reincarnates in new human body.
- Perfected soul may turn back and spot, guide or speed up aspiring souls’ journey towards perfection.
- Super-perfected souls may carry on towards higher levels of divinity
More spiritual experience are added as newer and fresher bits of knowledge are experienced by souls. Thus divinity becomes more and more aware about unforeseen vibrations and adjusts goal post of truth, joy and mental ethos-(sat chit anand). Horizon of knowledge is elusive and moves always further away.
