Death, Lifetimes, and Reincarnation
From Chapter 67
After bodily death, The Apparent individual (subtle and causal) personality Becomes Progressively Re-Associated With Whichever Vibratory Zone Of The Cosmic Mandala Corresponds To The conditional Tendencies That Remained effective At the end of the previous lifetime (or After The Completion Of The death-Process, or Release-Process, That Ended and Followed the previous lifetime). Thus, After bodily death, conditional self-Consciousness Is Progressively Re-Collected Via The Spontaneous (but Habit-caused) Motions Of attention. After the gross body Is Relinquished (In The death-Process), Many Patterns Of psyche (or mind) and form (or body) arise and pass away (in a sequence of various planes of experience), until the re-attainment of a more or less fixed embodiment (or "reincarnation", or re-birth, as a conditionally Manifested psycho-physical personality) in one of the planes Of The Cosmic Mandala (Possibly Even in the same plane and general locale as in the previous lifetime).
People Often Wonder Why, If All Of This Is So, they Do Not Remember previous lifetimes (or previous circumstances Of conditional Existence). Of Course, some people Do, In Fact, Remember previous lifetimes (or previous circumstances Of conditional Existence). Very Often, Such Remembering Occurs Spontaneously–In dreams, or In reveries, or In Meditation. However, most people Claim Never To Have So Remembered. The Reason For This Is That There Is No entity that Passes From lifetime To lifetime. What Proceeds From lifetime To lifetime Is The conditional Process Itself–Not a Fixed (or Eternal) "personal" entity (or An Independent and Separate individual Consciousness).
The present lifetime (or the Apparent present personal entity, which is Only the Apparent and conditional body-mind) is the effect of what came before it. The past lifetimes (or All The Cycles Of conditional embodiment) are effective as causes for what Follows them. It Is Not That a Remembering entity lives, dies, and is re-born. The True and Only (and Inherently egoless) Conscious Light Is Inherently, and Inherently Perfectly, and Perfectly Subjectively, and Always Transcendentally Existing (or Existing Always Already Most Prior To conditional events and The Memory Of them). Re-birth Is Simply The (Apparent) Continuation Of The Process (Of causes and effects) That Produces mind and body. . . .
Therefore, It Is Profoundly Useful For You To Realize–Whether Through Memory, Or Through Intelligent Observation Of The (Always psycho-physical) Laws and Mechanics Of Cosmic Nature, Or (Most Simply and Directly) Through The Illuminated Certainty (or Inherent Faith) That Must Awaken Via The Heart-Effective Grace Of True Satsang With Me (and Through The Subsequent Heart-Effective Grace Of My Avatarically Given and Giving Divine Spirit-Baptism)–That conditional embodiment (or Apparently conditional Existence, Manifested As a body-mind) Tends To Reproduce itself Inevitably. Once a body-mind Is Assumed, another body-mind Will Certainly Follow–Unless (Only-By-My-Avataric-Divine-Spiritual-Grace-Given) Divine Self-Realization and (Only-By-My-Avataric-Divine-Spiritual-Grace-Given) Most Perfect Renunciation (Of conditional self-Existence) Intervene To Break The Spell. It Is Simply A Matter Of The (Apparent) Laws (or "Habits") Of Cosmic Light–or Of (Apparently) conditionally Modified Conscious Light. The True and Only (and Inherently egoless) Conscious Light Cannot Be Destroyed–but, Once The True and Only (and Inherently egoless) Conscious Light Is (Apparently) Modified conditionally (or Once A conditional Motion Is Established), The Process Of Modification Will Tend To Continue (Indefinitely), Until The Tendency Toward conditional Modification Is (Itself) Transcended and Outshined In The True and Only (and Inherently egoless) Conscious Light (Itself).
