Life after Death

Well...may be seeing the title, the top of mind's recall for many of the movie buffs like me would be just one thing.. "not another story" that has become a phenomena in many movies now a days. I can assure you guys not to be afraid as what i want to say is no where connected to it.

So, Life after death,,seems a very interesting topic, as it is something that humans till date could not understand but would love to know. The question is there a life after death? The spiritual answer to it is yes as many of our vedas say that there is existence of heaven and hell where one has to redeem the benefits of karma or may be fulfill the requirements of karma on a case to case basis. This is in fact widely believed and acclaimed in western part of the world too. So, is that the end of story.. I do not think so..

I think whole of the vedas and all our rich cultural framework by many religions that has been passed to us is something that is more logical and fundamental to the existence of human nature than what we think about them.

Lets take an example, just imagine if there is no doctrine of karma in existence, the way people behave would be very different and may be we would be more like wild animals preying on each other and think only about survival. but that is not the case, as we think, use our rational brains to draw conclusions on what we think is right and correct. Such is the power of karma, which is actually explained in the from of heaven and hell so that even a common man can understand that.

So, coming back to the main discussion after a bit of digression, is life there after death? I do not know whether there is rebirth/hell/heaven, but i believe that there is life after death. Just think of few persons who we like/ take inspiration from, who motivate us, who we look upon. I bet that not many of them are living physically, not many of them we see in our daily lives, but even in their physical absence, they live with us, they live in our minds, thoughts and our hearts. This is life which is irrelevant to death according to me.

This the power to influence not with the physical presence but just with the sheer action of deeds/ words. These things cannot die as there is no death to them. They exist everywhere and it is up to to us to find them and pour life into them and make them what they actually are : ETERNAL
