Reincarnation is the rebirth in new bodies or forms of life after death... a belief that the souls of the dead successively return to earth in new bodies or forms... it is called "sansara", the transmigration of souls... as many as 3000 some claim, 3000 lives!.

    There is an increasing interest in this topic today, sustained especially by books and magazines, TV broadcasts, movies and conferences. Most of them are related to the world of esoterical wisdom and occult phenomena.    

    Most Oriental religions accept reincarnation guided by their Holy Scriptures, like Hinduism, Buddhism, Jainism...

    On the other hand, reincarnation is a way of rejecting the Christian teaching of the soul’s final judgment by a holy God, with the possible result of being condemned to suffer in eternal hell,, as accepted by some gnostics, atheists and materialists...

    Reincarnation is not a thrill for a Hindu, nor even a good happening to expect, it is the worse imaginable "curse"!... the greatest fear for a Hindu is not to die, but to reincarnate... all the ascetic sacrifices, all the hard yoga and puja practices, is to avoid reincarnation... to live nude or without food of a Jainist is to avoid the next reincarnation... the great sacrifices of a Buddhist in a monastery for life, is to obtain enlightenment, thus avoiding reincarnation...

    The present life for a Hindu is a horror, it is the wheel of existence that rolls relentlessly on, in indefinite reincarnations, and with each turning of the wheel you become more deeply involved in this senseless merry-go-around from which there is no escape; even "suicide" is not a solution, because now you will reincarnate as a dog or or an insect, or even a rock... and the only thing left for the devote Hindu is to become a "yogi", to die to all your desires while you are alive, in the hope that you will not be reincarnated...

    And the final aim of life, the ultimate dream of a Hindu, is "moska", the final union of his soul with Brahman, with no more reincarnations, the liberation of the curse of reincarnation....and that is the only hope of a Hindu... "without self"... the total non-existence as a person... because there is no Heaven for a Hindu, just the final hope of "nihilation"... like a drop of water in the ocean.

    Fundamental to Hinduism, to all branches and sects, is that all creatures go through a cycle of rebirth or reincarnations, which can only be broken by spiritual self-realization, the enlightenment, after which liberation, or moksha, is attained.

    This enlightenment can be achieved by the hard and long exercises of Yoga, to stop going through cycles of birth, life and death. One's progress towards enlightenment is measured by his karma. This is the accumulation of all one's good and bad deeds and this determines the person's next reincarnation. Selfless acts and thoughts as well as devotion to God help one to be reborn at a higher level. Bad acts and thoughts will cause one to be born at a lower level, as a person or even an animal or a rock.

    And the main problem of Hinduism, what makes me cry, is that after so many sacrifices and yoga, this final union with Brahman is like a drop of water falling into the ocean, there is no more identity of any individual, there is no more "person", it is the nihilism, to become nothingness, unrecognizable by anybody, not even by himself, because there is no more "self", no more consciousness of being...  not heaven, not paradise... "nothingness", "to disappear as a person", like a speck in the universe...

    What a surprise if, after death, there is eternal heaven or eternal  hell.

    On top of it, Reincarnation is one of the main reasons for the infamous "caste system" in India.

Heaven-Hell-Purgatory-Death -Last Judgment

    Hindus, Buddhist, Jainists, Taoists, and most Oriental  religions, do not believe in Heaven nor Hell… what a surprise after death, when they find each one of them either in eternal Heaven or in eternal Hell… no reincarnation!… with God and the angels and the company of the good persons forever, or with Satan and the demons and all criminals for ever!… believe it or not, like it or not!… it is a fact revealed by God Himself both in the Bible and the Koran., no matter if you admit it or not… and God revealed us it is a fact for each human being… God Himself!, not just a theory, or a novel, or a myth, or a legend…

    And in Heaven or in Hell as a person!… just like you are now, with the same soul and body you have now, well recognized by any of your relatives or friends.

     But there is Heaven for a Hindu!... The reincarnation is a non-proven "theory"... it is called a "fact" in India, but it has never been proven. See Reincarnation Today... a lie of the devil!

     There is Heaven for a Hindu, and without reincarnations!... Jesus Christ died for every Hindu, every Jew, every Buddhist, every Muslim and every Christian, born before or after Christ... "all the prophets born before Christ are in Heaven", says Jesus in Mat.8.... and all the good Hindus who died yesterday or 3,000 years ago may be now in Heaven, saved by the Blood of Jesus... even if they do not know it!... Abraham, Isaac and Jacob never met Jesus, and they are in Heaven! (Mat.8, Luc. 13).

     And they are in a Heaven, for all eternity, in union with the Absolute, as "persons", with the same body and soul they had on Earth; a transformed body, but the same one they had on Earth recognizable by anyone. See Heaven and Hell... can a Jew or a Hindu go to Heaven

     And "Hell" also exists, even if you do not believe in it!.. everybody after death goes to Hell if he or she died with bad deeds, with bad karma not cleansed with the blood of Christ... "there is no partiality for God, who will repay everyone according to his works". God, after death, will not ask if you were a Hindu or a Christian or a Chinese... he will say to each one of us: "You did good on Earth, come to Heaven; you did bad on Earth, go to Hell" (Mat.25, Rom.2:6-11)...and to Hell as a "person", with the same body and soul you had on Earth, recognizable by anyone... and for all eternity...

     To cleanse your bad karma, all your sins, is easy: Just have faith in Jesus, he is God, that can and want to clean, or pardon, all your bad deeds; repent, and just trust in Jesus, the Christ, the only one real God, who made heavens and earth, and your hands and heart, and loves you as much as any artist loves is good work of art... but he made you "free", you have to decide... if you don't want it, not even God can force you, because when he created you "free", he committed himself to respect your freedom.

    There is also a small "heaven" and a "hell" after death in the Puranas sacred writings: Heaven points skyward to Mount Meru, where the gods dwell; while hell descends into the bowels of the earth; but it is like the Catholic Purgatory, the soul remains in hell only until the evils of karma are burned away... however, in both cases, all elements of the human personality are lost after death, whereas in Christianity the human personality remains intact.
