IMHO Luckysingh ji.


The quoted part of your comments are quite beautiful. "Reincarnation" looks backwards and forwards. Often in discussion we think in terms of death and the next life and the next after that. We might even think that something in a past life caused misery today. It is easy to forget that those who are suffering in the here and now may be suffering because of the wickedness of other people in the here and now. Not because a distant and dead self (or relative) was a sex-maniac, a thief, a cheat a corrupt politician. Bhagatji is not mocking, he is challenging all of us to look in a direction that really makes a difference in who we are and how we treat other people. Bhagatji's challenge may even come from a place in dharma and compassion to relieve the suffering of any of us who live in terror of death instead of feeling the bliss of a life well-lived to the best of our ability.
