| As a result of
our actions and thoughts and the attachments developed thereby, we come into being in a fresh birth with certain fixed tendencies. The doctrine of past and future lives and continuity of evolution through many lives is an extension of the law of cause and effect as we see it working every day. It is this extended application of the natural law that distinguishes Hinduism from most other religions. No explanation or theory in regard to the ultimate cause of things can be free from difficulties or made proof against objectionsfrom a mere rationalist point of view. On the assumption, however, of an immortal soul as the basis of personality, it can be claimed that no theory can be formulated more in conformity with known laws of nature than the Hindu doctrine of karma. Man, according to the law of karma, evolves himself exactly according to his actions, the process being unbroken by death and passing on to the next life. |
