Dear Raghy,

It all boils down to desires.

It depends what a person desires in this birth itself that will decide what he/she would be going through in his/her next birth.

Sowbagyavathy Renu,

Did you say it boils down to desire? Then what about this life? What could have lead to such a lousy childhood, that worse, I would never wish that for anyone! Granted, after the age of 12, I found ways to find fun even in that; But couldn't see desire for that anywhere young lady! A curse, yes, I can agree. But a desire, I don't know.

Honestly, I don't think desires have any meaning when we lose this body. We got out of this body, no matter how worst was the situation, still show some regret for that loss then possibly we move on. When we step out, we know. I think we know everything that we had to know. I think it is the kind of a peace when you leave the examination hall. Whether you are going to score 15 out of 100 or 95 out of 100, it doesn't matter. You have the similar peace of mind. That is immediately after leaving the exam hall, before you worry about the external factors like society, peers and parents etc. I have been there for both results; I know exactly how I felt.

My lack of faith in reincarnations shouldn't restrict me from thinking about it though. I think, we choose to come back. Quite possibly, we need not comeback if we don't want to come back. I think we come back to complete some of the bits and pieces we left unfinished. All these desires come back to us once we got a body. Depending upon the body we got, circumstances we get trapped in our desires again change. In spite of all that, we may have our default qualities which decides the 'Lakshman Rekah' for our actions and for our desires connected to this body.

Young lady, I don't think desires decide our next birth. I could be wrong. Kindly share your views, please.

Cheers!
