I also remember one History TV program covering all the reincarnation stories told by some individuals who had dreams of their past life mentioning every events in clear detail. There was this kid, 5 or 6 year old who always went saying to his parents that he had nightmares about being in WW2 and he was a pilot or something and remembers all those horrific black impact smokes in the sky plus he also remembered the fighter jet's production number, his past name, the conversations he had with his co pilot and slowly going down after being hit over and over again. The parents had no idea how a 5-6 year old kid is having such a terrible dream every night and were surprised to know when they fact checked everything their child said was absolutely true regarding the martyred WW2 pilot and his co pilot as well.

Soul is not a physical entity and hence can never be "measured". When we die, we only leave behind our physical body i.e. _Annamayakosha_ the rest 4 of the 5 Koshas (layers) that make us is what we call our 'Soul'.

[SonofSoma]

There is a book written by famous Psychologist called “many lives many master” where he detailed out on rebirth by testing it on his patient. Not just this one Carl Jung and many other psychiatrists had written books on this topic if someone wants to know more plz do refer to them

[sanskriti]

There was a lot we couldn't explain or think of or invent, it's just that more we understand and research the more we get to know.. If something is unexplainable its just out of our confined wisdom
Someday we'll know:)
PS- I didn't say I truly believe in it, also can't really tell if it's not true

[OverLord]

Good explanation Sir. Some people don't understand what proper scientific proof is and don't know that spirituality and science different.

[larrymullin]

Very true, I cannot prove my vivid memory of dying in my past life and waking up at death and remembering I have done this before (many times) and vowing before I came back, "this time I will remember." And this time I have.
It has informed my life. ....a wave is born, a wave crests and a wave dissolves back into the sea. Matter is constant change ... I am Spirit !

[Shortsbuzz]

I truly agree with you. Some things need belief, some things need evidence.
I have seen many YouTubers who ask for evidences for many religious things. They call it pseudoscience.
I feel some kind of knowledge needs research like ayurveda. There are many startup’s in India who don’t get funding from investors because the natural ingredients they use are not proven or researched well.
I think some studies should be kept separate and should be dependent on beliefs. But I think research is needed on many relevant areas and make those knowledge acceptable as modern world only needs evidences..

[MinisterOfAffairs]

Choosing to believe in something or not is certainly an individual choice. But, forcing others to believe in what you believe is something that starts at home (from parents to children) and then spreads to the neighbors and then to the state and then the country and finally the world. This, when done in an organized manner is what causes conflicts. BELIEVE WHAT YOU BELIEVE BUT *KEEP IT TO YOURSELF*

[pranavprakash]

The science don't have the parameters to measure such activity, so its the limitation of science.

[TheLifeofSaik]

Closest thing to reincarnation that I have seen is the reincarnation of a lost sim card

[lucilleavakian]

As usual, your clarifications are generous and helpful.

[cbhlde]

I am soooo grateful that you made that clear!

[nishkalaiyer]

I wouldn't think much about these things earlier but it's hard to shake off the gut feeling of what you feel is true. I had learnt meditation from art of living eternity process. Sometimes when deep in meditation, I have memories of what seem like past lives but it's brief and hard to check. Sometimes I do have dreams of what will happen and it does like deja vu. Science is all about if we can prove or disprove but some things can't be explained. It's upto us to believe or not.

[abhishekjoshi]

Okay! so I too have a story to tell.
My good friend in college shared his story with me. He had an older brother who died a few days after birth. Now I don't exactly remember the ritual but his grandmother put a mark on the leg of the child who died and prayed for the child who died to come back to them in the next life.
My friend has got that BIRTHMARK on his leg in the same place he claimed his grandmother marked his brother who died.

Accept it or not
But Rebirth are
Always possible
And I believe it
that's the Truth

[nikulchokshi]

My point is.... why are WE ( Bharat 🇮🇳 & Asian countries ) trying to convince Western & European people...?. Who are they to be convinced ?. Who are they to approve our beliefs & culture ?. Who are they to comment any thing ?. Why are we in need of approval of West & Europe ?

[hidum]

I was a borderline atheist/agnostic but a few things happened to me and I'm now convinced that something is out there for sure. I mean that "something" is certainly like a person who's looking after you. But those are all my personal experiences and I can't prove them to anyone, however I know my experience is true and valid and I thought of all the possibilities that can come up (placebo effect/hallucinations etc.) it's none of that. I know my stuff is real and while no one will believe it, no one can take it away from me either. It also happens that I'm not alone in this world to have such experiences and there are those who have had it 10x more intense than me. Not everything can be explained on the basis of science and honestly to me now this "pure science" thingy seems useless. I'm happy with the applied science and not being into too much of philosophical discourses given by people like stephen hawking. It's all christianism embedded into science and math. Thanks to C K Raju I understood why mathematics was so difficult for me. These eminent scientists have turned the "physics" and stuff into a religion.

Also I think that I was a hippie in my last life, I'm not exactly sure but this possibility seems most valid based on my self reflection and deduction

[adityanair]

@4:18 very true.
Science is limited.
Science has not yet been able to discover a unit by which soul can be measured.
And even if they find then they have to explain by what all qualities of soul they took in to account.
If a thing can't be proven it exist that doesn't mean it's not their. 🙂

The idea I have gathered is that one of two identical twins raised and trained together can yet possess differential abilities in the same area of interest. One might become highly proficient but the other might become a genius, even if the former made greater effort and received better attention. If this is true - and I am ready for refutation - then genes and nurture are together not sufficient to explain all genius. Additionally, there is the factor of no identified genetic strain being sufficient to explain the degree of genius in spirituality or music or mathematics. I think in them certain abilities are developed over many lives, as the dharmic philosophies hold.

[arijitdhar]

Thank you for clarifying this to such a large audience base. These days people try to validate all Hindu beliefs with science backed explanations. I don't think that's a good path. We believe in things because we have experienced them. From the Leela of Krishna to the mahishasura vadh. From Shiva-Shakti union to Ram and Sita's eternal longing. These are all experienced by us Hindus. These are embedded into our psyche so deep that we don't need to explain anything to anyone. We experience things that people call myths and i pity them because they'll never understand higher realities like we do.
