I am happy to read off beat subjects in Readers’ Voice. Subject of moksha has drawn good response. Moksha, karma and reincarnation are very effective philosophies and preachings to keep all humans on path of altruism, benevolence and non-violence. There is no proof of soul, and ample visible evidence that once a body perishes, it mixes with constituent elements.

Souls has never been seen or felt. Yet it is amazing that ancient preachers success- fully dwelt on on factors affecting the soul, the unseen entity.

In Hindu religious scriptures, evolution towards causal root and ultimate merger is the main purpose of the very existence. This journey is ongoing relentlessly, whether one is aware or not. Those who are aware, are known as enlightened beings. Their progress is faster than mass of humanity who struggle blindly from one incarnation to next.

It is also preached that this progress is spirally in upwards direction. Therefore it is impossible for a human to be born in non-human body. Ones progress is speeded up as result of good karma or delayed to neutralize bad karma. But in a human body one gets circumstances to do good karma and avoid bad karma.
