Answer 2

"Karma and Reincarnation

Some are born happy, enjoy perfect health, with beautiful body, mental vigor and all wants supplied. Others are born miserable, some are without hands or feet, others again are idiots and only drag on a wretched existence. If they are all created, why does a just and merciful God create one happy and another unhappy, why is He so partial? Nor would it mend matters in the least to hold that those who are miserable in this life will be happy in a future one. Why should a person be miserable even here in the reign of a just and merciful God?

In the second place, the idea of a creator God does not explain the anomaly, but simply expresses the cruel fiat of an all-powerful being. There must have been causes, then, before our birth, to make us miserable or happy and those were our past actions.

Are not all the tendencies of the mind and the body accounted for by inherited aptitude? Here are two parallel lines of existence--one of the mind ["subtle" matter], the other of [gross] matter. If [gross] matter and its transformations answer for all that we have, there is no necessity for supposing the existence of a [mind and a] soul. But it cannot be proved that thought has evolved out of matter, and if a philosophical monism is inevitable, spiritual monism is certainly logical and no less desirable than a materialistic monism; but neither of these is necessary here.

We cannot deny that bodies acquire certain tendencies from heredity, but those tendencies only mean the physical configuration through which a peculiar mind alone can act in a peculiar way. There are other tendencies peculiar to a mind caused by the person’s past actions. And a soul with a certain mental tendency would by the laws of affinity take birth in a body which is the fittest instrument for the display of that tendency. This is in accord with science, for science wants to explain everything by habit, and habit is got through repetitions. So repetitions are necessary to explain the natural habits of a new-born soul. And since they were not obtained in this present life, they must have come down from past lives.

There is another suggestion. Taking all these for granted, how is it that I do not remember anything of my past life? This can be easily explained. I am now speaking English. It is not my mother tongue, in fact no words of my mother tongue are now present in my consciousness; but let me try to bring them up, and they rush in. That shows that consciousness is only the surface of the mental ocean, and within its depths are stored up all our experiences. Try and struggle, they would come up and you would be conscious even of your past life.

This is direct and demonstrative evidence. Verification is the perfect proof of a theory, and here is the challenge thrown to the world by the Rishis. We have discovered the secret by which the very depths of the ocean of memory can be stirred up--try it and you would get a complete reminiscence of your past life." - Swami Vivekananda.

Answer 5

Well as for me I choose to believe that:

"It is appointed unto man ONCE to die,

and after that the judgment."

Each human being born is born in the flesh

but once. We are unique creations of God,

and the person we are now we shall be for

all eternity. The idea that God is an ogre

Who deals out healthy or crippled bodies

as He wishes is unfortunate, because people

who believe such things don't know God, His

heart, His love, His mercy, His Fatherhood and

His ways. The human race has inherited the

curse of sin from the tragic mistake of the

first man who disobeyed God. The idea that

you go through life expecting a "do over" is

the consummate cop-out. We don't throw

deformed babies into the river just because

they aren't perfect, and perhaps they'll come

back better, "later"  because we know they are

given as a gift from God to allow us to demonstrate

love and compassion. God grieves over our hurts,

sicknesses and troubles and one day He promises

He will "wipe all tears from our eyes." This single,

precious life we are given is our test as humans.

If we hold on, love God and accept His Son Jesus

we are promised a place in heaven. It's not some

vague hope of a better life after ages of trying in

different bodies, it's a REAL promise you can stake

your life on! Sin, sickness, and disease come from

a world damaged by man's sin. But Jesus paid our

way by sacrificing Himself for us, that we CAN have

a "sure and certain hope" of eternity in heaven. And

when we're there we will "know as we are known".

We will look like we do now, though perfect, and

be the same person we are, though with all anger,

sorrow and confusion gone. For me I hope to

accomplish all that my Lord has for me to do in

this ONE life I have in loving and serving others.

Then I know I'll be with those I love forever. You

have to KNOW God Himself to be sure of this, and

He wants to know us!
