AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER
Ask Alok da

I understand that after our physical death we shed our vital and our psychic goes back to its world and then takes a new birth when it decides to do so. My question, when the Psychic takes a new birth does it take back the same vital that it shed during previous birth. I understand that after our physical death we shed our vital and our psychic goes back to its world and then takes a new birth when it decides to do so πŸ€”?

When the Psychic Being returns back in a new body it also develops a new vital and mental sheath commensurate with its development through the previous life. Whatever helpful vital and mental materials it needed from previous lives gets already integrated into it as the developing psychic personality. Similarly the unfinished lines and curves of evolution are also carried by it as Karmic imprints so as to complete certain ongoing experiences needed for its further evolution.Β  All the rest including our surface personality with which we are so much identified is all left behind, dropped and dissolved into the corresponding cosmic field.

Affectionately,

Alok Da

Am I right? 🫴🏼πŸͺ·πŸ˜ŠπŸ™πŸ»πŸŒ»

It is a question of semantics, playing with words. Satya nistha is the motive but the act is renunciation. Renunciation is an action that may be done for a number of reasons such as inability to face the challenges of life …
