Lesson 15: Reincarnation, Return, Recurrence / Lesson 16: The Scales of Justice

Reincarnation

  • Reincarnation requires a human to have Individuality (Integrity).
    • If one has not “created a Soul” by dissolving the ‘ego’, then there is no Individuality to be reincarnated.
    • Today, this theory has been falsified and they teach that all people are reincarnated.
  • A person with a Sacred Individuality has an awakened Consciousness and can choose the conditions of his Reincarnation.
    • E.g. the family in which he will be born, the place, the time, the Zodiac sign, etc.

Return

  • An ordinary person is not reincarnated. Simply, the “egos” return unconsciously to repeat the same dramas.
  • An ordinary person cannot choose the conditions of his Return.
    • If the ‘ego’ could choose, it would always want to be born into wealth, abundance, power, etc.
    • The Lords of the Law decide the conditions according to the Karma-Dharma of the person.
    • Therefore, it is not true that all people choose the conditions of their next life, before birth.

Recurrence

  • The Law of Return is always linked to the Law of Recurrence (Repetition).
  • Everything in the world returns and is repeated non-stop.
    • This is because time is not a straight line: time is a circle.
  • Thus, the ‘ego’ returns 108 times in life to repeat the same dramas and relive the same events.
    • In reality we do not have 108 lives, but one life that is repeated 108 times.
    • Life is like a movie film we take with us after death and show it again when we return to a new body.
    • People’s ‘egos’ telepathically communicate in a subconscious way, in order to repeat the same dramas.
  • Therefore, the Law of Recurrence is based on the ‘ego’.
    • The actors who play in all these dramas that we repeat in every existence, are the different ‘egos’.
    • As long as someone has the ‘ego’ inside, he/she will be a victim of circumstances, obliged to repeat the same dramas over and over again.
    • When we dissolve the ‘ego’, the dramas can no longer be repeated, as long as the actors no longer exist.
    • Thus, we are freed from the Law of Return and Recurrence.

Spiral Motion

  • Every life is a repetition of the previous one, plus the good and bad consequences.
    • Because of that, repetitions occur in ascending or descending spirals.
    • When man does good deeds, his next return is the repetition of the previous one in a higher spiral.
    • When a person does bad deeds, his next return is the repetition of the previous one but in a lower spiral.

The Scales of Justice - The Law of Karma-Dharma

The Law of Karma-Dharma is the Law of cause and effect.

  • The word “Karma” means in Sanskrit “act” or “action”.
    • Every bad deed produces Karma, that means a debt.
    • E.g. illness, poverty, conflicts, failures, problems, etc.
  • The word “Dharma” means in Sanskrit “universal law” or “cosmic order”.
    • Every good deed produces Dharma, that means a reward.
    • E.g. health, prosperity, friends, success, peace, understanding, enlightenment, etc.
  • One gets Karma not only for the evil he did, but also for the good he could have done but did not do.
  • Karma is not a punishment: it is the medicine of the Soul.
    • It is a method used by the Divine Law to understand our mistakes.
    • Therefore, we should not protest and complain when we suffer, but be patient and ponder what the Divine Law is trying to show us.
    • The Divine Law puts us in the opposite position so that we can realize the mistake.

How Can Karma Be Paid Off

Someone can pay off Karma in 3 ways:

1. With pain.

  • As serious as a sin is, the pain it causes, has a certain extent/amount which, when paid, the debt is written off.
  • “Whoever has capital to pay, pays and goes well in his negotiations. He who does not have with what to pay, has to pay with pain.”

2. With good deeds.

  • We can often avoid pain by paying with service and sacrifice.
  • “Do good deeds to pay off your debts.”

3. By being forgiven.

  • This can only be done by repenting and dissolving the ‘ego’ that produced it.
  • “A superior law washes away an inferior one.”

Karma is Negotiable

  • The Law of Karma is not a mechanical law.
  • The Law of Karma is governed by conscious Beings: the Lords of the Law.
  • Someone can negotiate his/her Karma with the Lords of the Law, offering in return some kind of service or sacrifice to others.
  • He can also ask for “credit” in order to be given something he needs (physical or internal) and to repay it later.
  • But he must be very careful to fulfill his promise and pay the “credit” he asked for, otherwise Karma will fall on him, forcing him to pay with pain.
  • “We can fight the Lion of the Law with the Scales.”
