Reincarnation and Karma - Addendum
71 The doctrine of renascence, based on the truth, is the key to important insights: • Only once people know that they can or even must return to Earth, will it become clear to them that they have always assisted with their own future. Those that presently know that their human eyes will see this world again one day, must also know that this circumstance alone suffices for them to behave differently, that is to say, more positively. Every human being will naturally see this world the way they have helped to create it themselves. But if lots of people recognise this truth, they must perforce have a great interest in creating a paradise for their own future use. Reincarnation A human being is born. It enters a civilised world with many accomplishments like television, radio, aeroplanes, automobiles, modern housing, running water and electricity. A newborn has not accomplished anything yet, so what right does it have to assert a claim on all of these developed advantages? – A new human being is provided for and protected. It receives tuition within the school system or studies at the expense of its fellow human beings. And it still hasn’t made a contribution in regards to this world and society, but cost thousands of financial means in the process. Whereby did it deserve all of these advantages? This human being suddenly joins a group of discontented people. It participates in riots and protests. It affronts its benefactors and all of society. What right does it have to do so? What does the doctrine of reincarnation have to say about this? Where does this human being come from? – If its spirit had developed within its mother’s womb, it would have developed from nothingness. So why does this human being assert a claim on so many rights? – If this was the case, it would simply return to nothingness. This would however constitute evidence that it could return from nothingness, because its birth or its appearance on Earth is not something nonrecurring. (Comment: One should contemplate this!) What does the reality look like? • Human beings do not come from nothingness, but from the spiritual realm and this is also where they return to. A newborn person finds its way in this world relatively easily. To believe that this person never ever lived on Earth before is a mistake. It intuitively knows this world frommany other lives. It represents the continuation of its development when it asserts a claim on society. This person’s development does not begin on the day of its birth, it only continues on from there. The great mistake lays in the fact that one assumes that a human life is nonrecurring and only runs from one’s birth to one’s death. But one life does not suffice. The universe was not created just for this. Those that assume this are not making full use of their logic.
