So what exactly is karma and what are the terms associated with it such as Karma, Karma Sanchit Karma Karma at a basic level simply refers to the connection of cause and effect and this is implicit in all human actions if today you go home and or if somebody comes home and you see that they have burn scar on their hand ask them what happened you see effect we assume there is a cause so that cause effect connection is essentially karma now we see in this life also different causes produce effect after different time durations so a burns if I put my hand in fire the scar comes immediately or I get burned immediately if I if I overeat late at night I get a stomach upset six hours later if someone starts smoking at the age of fifteen they may get lung cancer at the age of thirty five so different actions may produce reactions after different time durations so the principle of karma expands this cause effect correlation to further beyond this life that some actions from previous life may produce reaction in this life and some actions from this life may produce reactions in the next life so basically it’s the cause effect connection that is conveyed by the term karma little bit closer you want to explain this so maybe there is one question Prabhu is that ok if we take questions periodically so they will call back again so karma Prabhu said karma is the reaction connection of cause and effect Prabhu said if we eat unhealthy food it will have an effect after six hours if someone starts smoking at the age of fifteen they may get lung cancer at the age of seventy so that is karma Prabhu said we are climbing a wall how does it come back that is karma so now sanchit karma refers to the sum total of the karma that we have so if we consider karma to be like a water tank so there is a inflow pipe from which the water is going inside outflow from which the water is coming out so like that we are doing certain activities right now which are causing some karma that is the water going inside and there is some things which we are experiencing right now that is the water coming out so the sum total of the water that is there that we could call it like the total karma tank so the sum total of the water is the sanchit karma the the water that we are sending inside right now the water that is going inside the karma that we are doing right now that is what is called as the agami karma what is we are doing right now it is also called as the kriyaman karma now more important than the terms are the concepts so that even if we don’t get the terms the important thing is there is some karma which we are doing right now and that is adding to the karmic stockpile and then there is some karma that we are experiencing right now so for example there may be we may go through some sickness although we have maintained good diet good exercise suddenly some sickness comes upon us so that is the like the karmic stockpile that is the water that is coming out from the karma tank so that is classified into two that is aprarabdha karma and prarabdha karma so prarabdha karma refers to the karmic instalment that is coming to us almost throughout our life so for example the body that we get that is like a vehicle we have for the life journey that is the prarabdha karma that is what we have got so some of us may have a healthy body some of us sickly body some of us may have a Rolls Royce some of us may have a Fiat so like that we all have different vehicles that is prarabdha and during the life journey different reactions come to us which are going to come at different time that is the aprarabdha yeah there are some questions yes Hare Krishna Prabhu there is a question yes Prabhu ok thank you Prabhu so couple of questions one is what is the first birth and whatever the first birth somebody is taking what is the karma where is that karma coming for that first very first birth because it looks like it is a starting point and the second one is the origin of karma so two different sort of questions so what is the first birth and what is the karma in the first birth see the whole concept of first is from the reference point of the time domain if we consider a circle what is the starting point of a circle while drawing a circle there might have been a starting point but once the circle is drawn we can’t say there is a starting point to the circle so in that sense actually the soul is in this material world anadi anadi means it is for such a long time that it is almost like having no beginning in the Bhagavad Gita in the 13th chapter in the 19th and 20th verses Krishna talks about this prakritim purusham chaiva viddhi anadi ubhava prakriti and purusha the material nature and the soul they are viddhi anadi ubhava both of them are anadi so they have no beginning now what does it mean no beginning basically it is outside the time domain and what is outside the time domain is not conceivable for us and that’s why it’s best not to agonise too much on this the important thing is that whatever that in the start we begin with a clean slate so we have no impressions we have no karma so we get excellent facilities for living but while we are living we misuse our free will we make wrong choices and that’s how the karmic tank becomes accumulated and then we get based on our kind of actions that we have done we get the subsequent lives so the karmic slate we could say it begins with positive score where if first of all the conception of beginning itself is to be is not literally applicable because the soul is eternal and the soul existence in the material world is also like eternal but if at all we want to apply the concept of the beginning then we have to understand that at that beginning point the soul begins with nothing negative but it’s subsequent choices which are can be positive or negative the soul becomes soul comes under the principles of karma to greater and greater degrees now the first birth so when the soul takes the first birth is that a human being yeah or so the first birth of the soul is always as a human being because it is a human form that the soul has the capacity to use the free will In the beginning itself it is a positive gradually it increases so it is not confused that is why the karma is there people have to understand this or else they won’t understand you can ask any question 4 1 6 8 4 8 3 9 Poojam Poojam 4 1 6 8 4 8 3 9 Poojam Poojam so the soul is dependent on confusion there is no confusion so how to say when we come here and confuse it we get confused that is why karma is there so Prabhu you were saying about prarabdha karma so that is prarabdha and aprathaya prarabdha so if you can continue with that so the prarabdha and aprathaya karma these are basically the vehicle that we have that is the prarabdha karma and aprathaya karma refers to the traffic conditions the environmental conditions that we encounter as we are driving along the vehicle so sometimes people feel that if we accept this principle of karma destiny then that means that everything is predetermined nothing is in our control so once I was in Australia and I was asked this question if nothing is in our control why bother about anything and I replied why bother to ask this question that’s true so actually we do have some amount of free will and now the amount of free will that we have that may vary just like if I have a plane I can fly if I have a car I can drive, if I have bicycle I can go only as fast as I can paddle but each of these I have the capacity to move so the vehicle I have that determines how fast I can move, what mode I can move by but we can always move so basically we all have free will and extent of our free will is shaped by our past karma and to the extent we use the free will that we have properly to that extent our capacity is increased so I have a follow up question to you so we do have free will in certain things in our life but we don’t have choices in other things for example when we are born, to whom we are born where we are born and when we are going to die so how do we differentiate where we absolutely don’t have a choice which is fixed in a way at least where we are born to whom and that type of fixed situations versus is it like taking a plane from here to New Delhi I don’t have a choice I’ve taken it but then within the plane the air hostess is giving liquor or some juice so is that a way to understand or how do we say what we cannot change and what we have the option to choose. So how can we know what we can change what we can’t change basically the what happens to us is destined how we respond to it is free will so the things that are going to happen to us that are not in our control as I give you example if I am driving on a road then how much traffic is going to be there in the road that is not in my control how what is the weather going to be along the way that is not in my control but how I drive is in my control if the weather is stormy the road is slippery and if at that time I drive at high speed then the probability of my meeting an accident becomes much more but although the road is slippery the weather is stormy if I am driving slowly and cautiously I need not meet an accident so basically the things that happen to us that we can understand that they are not in my control other things which my response is always in my control now our response often determines the effect of what happens to us what happens to us is an event but the impact of that event is determined by how we respond so for example if I am going along the road and a snake bites me that snake biting me is destiny that has happened by past karma now if I become angry at that snake and I say snake you dare to bite me I will beat you and I start chasing the snake to find it to stamp on it and to kill it even if I succeed in doing that I am causing the poison to play faster in my body and I am killing myself so at that time when a snake has bitten me my priority should not be to get back at the snake my priority should be to get safe wonderful Hare Krishna Hare Krishna Prabhu there is a question Prabhu explain the spirituality with the meaning of science it is a very good explanation that we are enjoying the programme and we have one question when he when he talked about Newton when he went to Cambridge last time and there is a question Charles Darwin proved the theory mankind came from a monkey family or evolution sorry evolution so when man where evolution evolution from kind of animals like monkeys in the early life time they don’t understand about spirituality they don’t follow Bhagavad Gita they don’t follow any religious path how did they understand Bhagavad Gita and which status of man you know kind they understand Bhagavad Gita when did they understand the first time if we go through a science path or people human being born with all the knowledge that we are now ok and in the yugas in one of those yugas maybe they introduced to Bhagavad Gita which is the right way to understand ok ok Prabhu thank you very much ok thank you so the question is that if we consider the evolutionary history of life then in the past people did not have the intelligence to understand spirituality so at what stage did they become evolved enough to understand the Bhagavad Gita there are two important things to consider over here first is that the capacity for understanding spiritual side of life that is innately present in the soul the soul may be in different bodies whichever body it is in the soul remains the same however the covering on the soul that is what is different in different bodies and so because of the covering it’s like we have the eyes to see if I have spectacles maybe I can see better if I have non transparent glass then I cannot see at all there is a glass that will blind me so like that certain species that we have they cover the soul’s awareness and at different times in the history of the universe certain species may exist more and certain species may exist less so just as say even on the earth we will see that in certain seasons certain birds are more and other seasons in that part of the world the birds are no longer there the birds have migrated or some other animals like say frogs and others they go into hibernation in the cold season so if we consider the Bhagavad Gita explains the bodies are like dresses so … … so in 2.22 in the Bhagavad Gita Krishna says that the body is like a dress which we keep changing so now the dress that we wear is naturally shaped by the environment that we are in so yes it’s possible that in the history of the universe there have been different environmental conditions at different times and different species could have been existing more or less according to whether their bodily dress was suited for that environment or not and the important thing is that the whichever body has the capacity for allows the capacity for spiritual enquiry through that body the soul moves forward and understands spirituality now as far as the theory of evolution is concerned we have to understand what it is what it is about and what it is not about the theory of evolution primarily takes the scientific principle of having mechanisms to explain how things happen in this world so for example the theory of gravity which explains how an object falls now the mechanisms they they explain the correlation between cause and effects but suppose say there is a India Pakistan cricket match and the last ball you need a six to win the match and the Indian batsman hits the ball and goes for a six and then somebody asks how did you manage to hit a six on the last ball he said oh I hit the six by the laws of physics the laws of physics can explain okay you hit the ball with so much force that’s why it went across the boundary otherwise it would have been caught the laws of physics explain the explain the correlation between causes and effects the laws themselves are not causes similarly science may come up with many different theories and the theories can explain the correlation between causes and effects but the theories themselves are not causes the causal agent is separate after the causal agent activates something activates something then how things are correlated that’s explained by particular theories in science so without getting into technicalities of theories we understand the principle that we as conscious beings have to be fundamentally present for any scientific theory to be postulated to be observed to be verified so the soul as a conscious being is always present and the way things happen in the material world they may be explained by certain theories but these two are entirely different things as far as the time domain the Bhagavad Gita was the tradition explains spoken 5000 years ago and at that time human beings were very intelligent if we look at just even recent history if we just look at 300 years ago the average sentence length in English books was around 30 to 40 words now 50 years ago or 20 years ago the average sentence length is around 10 words 15 words now with instant messaging the average sentence length has become 2-3 words so actually if we see even from the point of recent history what we have is not evolution of intelligence we do see some extent of devolution of intelligence and it’s not just English language we consider different languages we see that the literature of the past the literary capacity within it the factual information may be more because of scientific method of acquiring knowledge but the capacity to write that was there in the past also and in many ways not just in the Indian tradition in other traditions also people used to remember things and they used to remember a lot so certainly thousands of years ago also the capacity for understanding the Bhagavad Gita was there and that capacity it comes from the soul and it is manifested whenever there is an appropriate body for channelling that consciousness at the external level for functioning in this world Thank you very much So how in our life these karmas it is like asking different questions in many ways our karmas are formed you have given many examples in those examples the freedom that we have we misinterpret it wrongly that is why we have the consequences the reason for the consequences is the freedom that we have we misinterpret the freedom that is why we have the consequences Hare Krishna Hare Krishna Hello Hare Krishna so in the in the anyway in this if something happens to us that thing we call it fate Prabhu said it is destiny it is our fate we cannot change that but we can change the things that happen as per that we have to escape for example Prabhu said from that how we have to escape we can manipulate our thoughts there but no one can escape from fate as he said there is a circle in that circle there is a starting point so as we go along Prabhu if there is anything else we can add so Prabhu now that we have another 12 more minutes only so if we can ask you some short questions that is ok now that can we negate a good karma with a bad karma so we have done something bad, I know that later on I want to set that right, can I do something I kill somebody and then I build a hospital, will that negate that? that is if I do a good thing or if I do a bad thing and then do a good thing will that negate that karma? so can we negate bad karma with good karma I gave the example of a water tank if I put unclean water in the water tank and after that I put in clean water it is not that the clean water is going to remove the unclean water the unclean water has already gone inside the clean water will also go inside so basically it is not that one action counters other action directly but the clean water also adds to the water tank reservoir so the good action that we do they won’t be lost there is a way there is something called as prayaschitta prayaschitta means that if I have done something wrong then I atone for it and by that atonement it is that we voluntarily accept that ok I did something wrong and I seek forgiveness expression of my remorse for having done that we do certain practises so by that we can minimise the reactions that come upon us more importantly the point of the karma is not just to punish us for you did this wrong you get this punishment you did this wrong you get this punishment the point of karma is basically not retributional but educational not to give revenge for this but to educate now this is not the right course of action this is better course of action and ultimately the bhagavata tells us Krishna says that if you just surrender to me and practise bhakti I will free you from sinful reactions so the best course of action is that whatever we may have done in the past if we just start wholeheartedly practising bhakti then Krishna elevates us above this cycle of chain this chain reaction of action and chain of action and reaction that means sometimes you can remove the reaction completely sometimes he may let the reaction come but we don’t suffer the reaction because he shelters us how to enjoy that and I did a good thing but it was not good I ran and there was no water there was no clean water I had to go back and practise as I practised I can do it everything is mixed up there through prayaschitta whatever you do there are remedies for it as a remedy he says you can get rid of those karmic reactions that is when we put our bhakti threads on the Lord and do it it is because of prayaschitta but because of the mercy of the Lord everything gets destroyed so Prabhu when you said prayaschitta what are the prayaschitta or atonement activities that one can do so what are the easiest way so that what are the prayaschitta that best we can do the Bhagavatam Bhagavat Purana 6th Canto explains that we may do prayaschitta there are various activities for which different prayaschitta are mentioned but prayaschitta may save us from the reaction for the wrong that we have done but it won’t protect us from the desire that made us do the wrong and that will keep coming again and again therefore prayaschitta or atonement it has said that that is why doing prayaschitta is like elephants bathing in a river and then after it comes out and it takes mud and sprinkles on itself so basically the best prayaschitta is not just that which saves us from the reaction to the wrong but the best prayaschitta is that which frees us from the desire that made us do the wrong and that prayaschitta is actually bhakti it is said in the Bhagavatam that if we just practise bhakti wholeheartedly then the whole set of the desire that make us do wrong and the reaction that come upon because of that all that is like a mist which will be dissipated when the sun rises so when we practise bhakti by especially chanting the holy names of god then that chanting and their bhakti in the heart acts like a sun and dissipates the whole mist of the action of karma and its reactions wow bhakti is what is important that is why we take medicines that is why we take medicines that is why we do it if I kill someone this prayaschitta will save me from that but the desire that I have that taking that and taking it alive is important that can only be done by bhakti that can only be done so to give an example going to a holy dham or feeding somebody some of the basic examples that will negate to an extent the bad effects but will not remove the desire if you can give couple of examples what is that prayaschitta so what is the prayaschitta say for example tirtha yatra many people go for chardhan yatra or people fast on holy days people feed the hungry now all these are good now if we could do them simply by adding the element of bhakti there are often there is punya and there is there is paap and punya so often we equate punya with bhakti but bhakti is higher than punya paap is material bad action punya is material good action but bhakti is spiritual action it is devotional action so whatever practises which we may be doing, we may be fasting we may be going to holy places, we may be giving in charity if we could make it especially devotional, centred on god directly means go to the holy places not just thinking that I want to free myself from sinful reactions but I want to go there to worship god to increase my bhakti to him to hear about him, to chant his glories so the focus is not so much on countering the reactions, the focus is on connecting with god when we do that, especially with proper guidance of those who are well connected with god, then if you want to give food, instead of just giving food in charity, we give food that is an offer to god, offer to Krishna, that becomes Krishna prasad, then that just becomes not just, that doesn’t become just punya, it becomes bhakti and that helps us not only become free from the reactions but also become free from the desire that make us do wrong things and get reactions so another question is we have been in different human bodies and different species bodies we are getting lot of karmic reactions we have accumulated in different human bodies as you mentioned this bhakti or devotional service we take part in various forms of devotional service but we may be 50 years old already and today, as of today listeners have heard about this bhakti and how it can negate the negative karmas but they are already 50, they may hardly live for another 10-15 years but so many bad deeds have been accumulated for 50 years in this life and many more lives before as well, so is that good enough or there is no time is it too late already? so if we are already say middle aged then is it too late for us to practise bhakti or is it that even in this life, in whatever say 10-15 20 years we have, that’s enough to counter whatever bad karma that we have done our focus when we are practising bhakti, it’s it is devotional, it is not calculational we don’t have to have a calculative mentality will this be enough to counter that we just redirect our heart’s desire towards towards Krishna and as I said the point of karma is not to punish, the point of karma is to purify so if Krishna sees that we are diligently redirecting our desires then he can save us from all reactions it’s like even in our justice system, a prisoner, a criminal may be sentenced to a particular say 20 years in jail but the point of the sentence is not to keep the criminal in 20 years jail, point is to make sure that the criminal reforms, if the criminal reforms, then within 10 years also the criminal may be released for good behaviour, so we can we can focus on just wholeheartedly practising bhakti and not bother about karma so much, you know there is a great saint Kula Shekhar Maharaj, he is a Alwar and he says that maabhir mand mano jinte, mind mind mind don’t worry maabhir mand mano o mind o lazy mind don’t worry about there are so many sufferings that are going to come because of my karma, why don’t worry because that your lord is the enemy of sin he can drive away all sins just just give up lethargy and with the easy process of bhakti start worshipping lord Narayana and that lord that even people who come just for not for developing a relationship with him just for gaining things for him he actually satisfies them also if somebody is trying to devote oneself to them, why will he not satisfy he will surely bestow abandoned mercy, so it is said that I will conclude with this point in the Vishnu Sahasranam we can go for few more minutes so in the Vishnu Sahasranam there are two names of Vishnu that are used, nimisha and animisha so nimisha means one who blinks his eyes and animisha means one who doesn’t blink his eyes so it is described by prominent Acharya Baldevidya who has written a commentary on this he says that nimisha means while we are trying to serve the lord, if we accidentally commit some mistakes, the lord blinks his eyes and overlooks those mistakes and if we are trying to serve him then even the smallest service that we do, he unblinkingly knows that service, that is animisha so for example you said the lord nimisha said that the one who closes his eyes the one who keeps his eyes open the devotees the devotees the small mistakes that they do the lord blinks his eyes and overlooks them my devotee is the one who keeps his eyes open at the same time even the small mistakes that you do the lord blinks his eyes and overlooks he doesn’t close his eyes so see, at night when my children will come to me the lord is watching the lord is watching that is a good reason a very special reason this programme is still extended we will be here for 15 minutes 4 to 1, 6, 8 to 4, 8 3 to 3, 9 Poojyam Poojyam we apologise, many questions came but we could not take it all at once during the course of Prabhu’s explanation 4 to 1, 6, 8 to 4, 8 3 to 3, 9 4 to Poojyam Poojyam if you are not able to get through, just wait for a minute and then call back so Prabhu just continuing on with this topic of karma and reincarnation so if we are able to practise this bhakti, devotional service and it’s going to eradicate does it eradicate only the bad karma or does it eradicate the good karma too because if only the bad karmas are eradicated by bhakti then the good karmas will still be there then we will have to be born again to enjoy, does this bad karma and good karma get nullified by the devotional service our good karmas and bad karmas when we do something good should we get rid of it or should we get rid of the bad ones as you said by doing good we have to be born again to experience the good so what should we do before we can we take one more question Hare Krishna Vanakkam Vanakkam I have a doubt everyone is saying that we are born again is it true or not do you have any other question or just that I have a question you can ask him now I will ask him is it true that we are born again I have a doubt I will ask you later I don’t believe you I didn’t ask you is it true that god came as a human is it true that god existed for us is it true that we are born again is it true that we lived 40 years is it true that the same god existed when we were born please tell me ok I will tell you I believe you I don’t believe anyone ok thank you so this mother she believes 100% on what is being said here and her question is very basic question is reincarnation 100% true is it really true that reincarnation exists and the second part of the question is in a different topic what she said is does god appear as human and also an extension of that a sub question in that is did Jesus appear and then did he resurrect so it’s like a three part question so is reincarnation for real no when I just came to America I landed at Jacksonville and then there was a air hostess we were waiting so she asked this question does life do you believe in life after death so I asked her do you believe in life before death what do you mean obviously life exists before death so I asked her where does this life exist what is it that is alive the chair that we are sitting on that is made of the same atoms and molecules that our body is made of that even our brain is made of now the chair the table it does not have consciousness it does not have life so if we are if we are questioning whether there is some being which exists beyond death and that’s why because we can’t see that being so we can’t believe in it the question is what are we seeing right now actually if we consider simply the materialistic perspective then there should not be life present even now because matter itself is never conscious matter does not feel matter does not experience matter just responds you know Einstein said that the law of gravity can explain the falling of things but it cannot explain people’s falling in love with each other so the point is that consciousness as it exists is a great mystery in my book on demystifying reincarnation I quote a scientist who there is a science magazine they had 125 unsolved questions in science on their 120th anniversary and the second biggest unsolved question in science is what is consciousness where does it come from and one scientist Nick Herbert says that the only thing that we know about consciousness is that it has something to do with the brain more than it has something to do with the food so scientist has no understanding of consciousnesses so therefore the very fact that we are conscious right now and we are made of bodies which are simply made of material elements which are not conscious that indicates that we at our core are non-material and at death all that happens is the material body is destroyed but the non-material core that is there that continues to exist beyond this body there are empirical cases also of past life memories near death experiences which point to the continuance of consciousness after death and past life memories actually are very strong cases there are four levels of evidences people not only remember their past lives there is recollection and there is recognition people if they are taken to their children are taken to their past life place they actually recognise this was my mother, this was my father, this was my friend and not only recognition there are also behaviours that children behave a small child may be 5 years old there was one young boy Nesip who was born in Turkey when he went to his previous life and he saw his wife from his previous life and she had remarried he was so jealous of seeing her with her new husband that he took her picture and wanted to break that picture, that frame apart and he had children from his previous life who were actually older than him right now but he was fondling them and caressing them as if they were like small his children these are behaviours and then there are birth marks and birth defects in this case of Nesip which I talked about in my book he had 6 correlating birth marks, Nesip in his previous life had been attacked by a knife and he had been killed so the knife, the points at which the knife had pierced his body especially in a lethal way at those 6 points in this life from birth he had birth marks so Ian Stevenson the scientist who actually wanted to who did extensive study of reincarnation and he found that this correlation of birth marks is so precise, he divided the human body into 160 XY coordinates and he found the location of the previous life’s fatal wound and this life’s birth mark and he found they exactly correlated and if we have 6 correlating birth marks that means the probability of that is 1 divided by 160 raised to the power of 6 with the astronomically low probability, therefore even for past life memory cases we can say that there is strong evidence pointing towards the reality of reincarnation and so does that mean that for example Ian Stevenson’s findings and now if they are not doing that much of research on this does it mean that those marks and things like that are no longer manifest to show the proof of reincarnation or still the works are going on and its continuing so is the research on reincarnation still going on, yes definitely it is going on there are 2-3 things which are making this research more problematic because in the past when the information because of internet and TV now people can know everything about so many things, so in the past say if a child was a child at the age of 3 or 4 suddenly starts saying mummy I want to go to my other mummy and starts telling the name and the place and the practically the address at that time it was much easier to rule out that this child at the age of 4 could not have got this knowledge by any other means but now the child may have access to internet sceptics now have more reason to doubt so because the child may have access knowledge from different ways but still there are many cases where the child describes such not just specific items of knowledge but also as I said exhibits behaviours which are displeasing to the parents there was a boy born north of India Jasbir Singh at the age of 2 and a half he suddenly told his parents that they were from a lower caste family and he told I am a Brahmin and I cannot eat food cooked in this lower caste house and for the next he refused to eat for the next 4 years his parents, his father had to actually pay a Brahmin to cook food from his house and get to his house how could this at all be made into we made it fraudulently so there are as research is going on many many more cases are coming up so the cases are difficult to prove in a fool proof way but still for a reasonable person there is abundant proof available you have a Prabhu has a book there so Prabhu has got many books actually 20 books, more than 20 books but the latest book is demystifying reincarnation so this is definitely not to miss book this copy if you came to Escon Scarborough yesterday you would have got this copy still it is not too late tomorrow evening, Prabhu is conducting a seminar in Escon Brampton if you google Escon Brampton you will get the address 6 George Street tomorrow morning also he is giving a class in Escon Brampton all these books will be available there tomorrow night sunday evening sunday feast is there 243 avenue road programme will start from 6.30 6.30 to 7.30 all the books will be available there all the books will be available there all the books he is writing are beautiful books not too big books so you can use this book definitely take a copy they have spread all over the table when he brought us to the temple yesterday which book to take which book to take all are good books all are available in English but his books are available in different languages so many languages Indian languages, plus Romanian Chinese German language so that language is also there but if you go to two websites whatever questions you may have whatever questions you may have you go to one of the two websites one is spiritualscientists.com can you say that in Tamil of spiritualscientists spiritualscientists.com p-h-e-s-p-i-r-i-t-o-a-l scientists s-e-i-e-n-t-i-s-t I’m speaking fast but if you google spiritualscientists you will see the word he has answered thousands of questions some are in transcription Some will be with audio, some with video. Within 5-10 minutes, you will get the complete answer to that question.
Whatever question you may have, that question may have been already asked and it’s already been answered. Similarly, if you go to www.geethadaily.com www.geethadaily.com If you go there, there are 18 chapters. In each of the 18 chapters, there are 40, 50, 60 years.
For each year, there are many, many explanations. He would have given it in 2 or 3 paragraphs. He has seen it from different angles.
The reason why we are telling this to the people is that you should also know everything. That’s why he asked this question. He asked such a difficult question.
He said, I believe in your 100 ways. If you believe and come, all these books will be there for you. These books will be there for you.
In these books, there are dates, birth dates, etc. All these events have already happened. They have already happened.
The devotees or listeners were asking us questions. I’m sorry, we couldn’t take many more calls. I saw the light blinking.
But sometimes they feel, oh, it is a little embarrassing for us to ask the question. Maybe my question is not so good question. And they hold back.
So we always appreciate others asking questions because the same questions may be in the minds of others who are shy to ask. But what we are saying is now, even if they are shy to ask any question, and they may have had 10 questions and we may not be taking all their calls. If they go to spiritualscientist.com and if they search by name, for example, karma, the same today’s topic.
Go search karma or reincarnation. 100-200 hits will come, Prabhu’s explanation. So that is the best way to know at the comfort of your home.
You don’t have to go anywhere to have this. But having said that, Prabhu comes very rarely. This is his second time coming to North America.
But this is his first time coming to a radio station. This is an annual fixture. If he comes again, he won’t escape from us.
Prabhu cannot escape. At least two hours we will try to get time slot from Rajkumar Prabhu. We have to thank Rajkumar.
In the beginning, the owner of this radio station also asked a couple of questions. He is the brother of Rajkumar.
