do you think attaining self realization will lead us to go beyond life and death as said in the bhagavad gita.or if we claim ourselves with sensual pleasures like sex and so on would we be circling in life and death

I believe that every soul has its own work to do. We come here to learn certain lessons, to do certain work, to achieve certain goals. As each body your soul is given dies, we return to our Creator and our work here is evaluated. If we have achieved what we were sent here for, we can move on to the next lesson. If we have not, we have to try again.
Ultimately, when a soul has completed all of the necessary tasks and learned all of the necessary lessons, I believe that is when we move on to a higher plane of existence, what some might call Heaven.
Every soul is at a different stage of its own evolution, which is why there are some people who seem to just 'get it', while there are others who appear to be absolutely idiotic. People who are following their path achieve and succeed and grow, on a small or large scale - whatever is appropriate to them. People who defy their path become lost, fall ill, and cause themselves and others great pain and distress.
It's hard to explain well, and I'm sure others could say it better, but these are my beliefs, and I live by them. Life is good :)

I think that everything in nature has a never ending cycle that most follow. Everything is energy, even mass, and energy can not be created or destroyed, so if we are energy, we can not just disappear, i guess we just change in some way, maybe physical or mentally, or that energy (Soul) just gets rid of our old body and look for another one to keep the cycle moving, and for our benefit, what should be kept on our minds is still there in some part that we can not access, that is why we can use a seven percent of our brains, that is the reason how subliminal messages work in us. If this world was created or not, it does not matter, it has some rules, there is always an equilibrium. New life is just the same energy of 2000 years ago that is taking a new body to keep the cycle. Think about Dejavous, you feel and believe that something already happened but you are not so sure.

There was "life" before birth and there will be "life" after death.This is NOT called reincarnation. This is called Birth/death cycle.

Self realisation has nothing to do with reincarnation. Self realisation , simply said, will mean understanding oneself ... that our physical body is NOT us . That what happens to our physical body and the mind should not affect our fundamental understanding of ourselves and that we are above these.

Sensual pleasures and worldly lives need not be given up to attain this Birth/death cycle. Too much of everything is what ties us down to this world and the world hereafter.

I think death is a whole different ride, we are living in a dream right now, kind of like in the 'Matrix, and this one book I bought to find out more about life, but didn't come up with anything, so when we awake, we will, die in the world we live in today, sometimes it's too big to put your mind around. But, those people who are unhappy today, you know suicider's, people who are depressed, etc. how do you think they will get along in the incarnations if that is the other way?

i do no longer believe in re-incarnation in any respect because of the fact it scientifically would not make experience. If each and every residing ingredient grew to become into re-incarnated to a distinctive residing ingredient as quickly because it died, then mathematically the worlds inhabitants (no longer in straightforward terms human yet of each and every thing) could stay a similar. as an occasion, say there are basically one hundred residing issues on the planet (some human beings, animals, flowers and so on). which skill there are in straightforward terms one hundred "souls" (or despite this is that leaves your previous physique and gets re-incarnated into the hot physique) on the planet, so there'll in straightforward terms ever be one hundred residing issues on the planet no count what they are, the inhabitants could by no skill pass up.

Yes there is life after death. Re-birth is necessary as we have to learn millions of lessons before reaching divinity..in each birth we learn some lessons and after death spend some time in Astral Realms (heavens/hells) and then take a new birth

This cycle of re-births continues till we are self-realised.

Yes, I believe in life after death. Check my post "Is life just a beginning....?"
Someone somewhere waiting for you to come. So live every moment of your life honestly and respect all human beings.

even though i believe in God Jesus 100%, I would have to say that death is like a deep sleep until we are awoken judgement day. why do you think that the dying elderly always say that they are "tired"? the sensual pleasures that we get with sex is to encourage us to create more people.
