Reincarnation is not random—it is governed by the law of karma. Every action, thought, and intent creates an impression (samskara) that influences the soul’s journey. The Brihadaranyaka Upanishad (4.4.5) states, “As is one’s desire, so is one’s destiny.”

Key aspects of reincarnation include:

Karmic Debt – Unresolved actions from past lives determine future experiences.
Past Life Impressions – Fears, talents, and relationships may carry over from previous existences.
Evolution of the Soul – Each rebirth is an opportunity for growth and spiritual progress.

Spiritual practices like meditation, selfless service, and devotion help neutralize past karma. By living ethically and seeking higher knowledge, one can break free from the cycle and attain moksha—the state of eternal liberation.
