Chapter 2 verse 20
“He is not born, nor does He ever die;
after having been, He again ceases not to be; unborn, eternal, changeless and
ancient, He is not killed when the body is killed”
This verse reminds me of Brian Weiss’s “Many
Lives; Many Masters” which talks about past life regression written by a
scientist/doctor who is from a different belief structure. Truth doesn’t rest
on beliefs. As earlier mentioned, whether you believe in multiple births of the
soul or not, it happens. Lord Krishna couldn’t clarify this better. I am very
intrigued by the word “ancient”. When my parents and I visited the Brahma Kumari
ashram in Mount Abu a few years ago, their exhibit wondered about if you would
have around when Ram was king of Ayodhya and if you were what your role was?
Instead of focusing on all our previous lives, let’s focus on life at hand. There
are numerous stories in our puranas and even Mahabharata and Ramayana
explaining why a particular person goes through an experience due to their
actions in previous lives.
Do we recognize why we have been put in
a particular situation? Does it matter that we have to recognize why? Why
cannot we just act? Our souls have been around for ages…ancient souls..Just
acting would do us a lot of good to not be reborn again.
