Aptavani-1 23 and effect, effect and cause continues.
There cannot be an effect without a cause and where there is an effect there has to be a prior cause. Our present body is the effect of the causes of our past life. At birth one is born with both the gross body and the subtle body. But then the‘ effects’ of this body produces new causes through raag( attachment) and dwesh( abhorrence) and these are the seeds( of cause) for its next life. Upon death, the Atma( Soul) along with the causal body( karan sharira) and the subtle body( sookshama sharira) departs, leaving behind the physical body. At that same moment the causal body finds another effective body.
If there were no such thing as rebirth and if God had created every one, then we would all be of the same mould and identical. We would not have short and tall, thin and fat, black and white, rich and poor beings. The differences you see are results of different effects of the causes from past life. Everyone has different causes and hence different effects. If there is no rebirth, then show me even single evidence that proves it. What do English-speaking people mean when they say lucky and unlucky? Even the Muslims use words like takdir( good luck) and tadbir( bad luck). What does it signify? Their language is complete but their beliefs are not. These words are meaningful only in regards to rebirth.
As are the causes, so are the effects. Good causes produce good effects and bad causes produce bad effects. One cannot be free from these effects until the causes stop. Causes will not stop as long as long as‘ I am Chandubhai’ is engrained in your belief and your knowledge. They will only stop when a Gnani awakens you and makes you realize your true Self. I destroy your causal body leaving you to take care of‘ Chandulal’ s’ effects and while doing this, there will be no attachment or
