I have realised that life's just not fair no matter what... Things just dont get better and i feel unfortunate. Its very evident that God's teasing me by giving people around me whatever they want...and I've been waitin for years and nothing's going good for me... In my present life, i m doing morally correct things and all.. but may be im being punished for my past life sins??? Will my life have to be disappointing throught???? :((

There are many problems with the salvation-by works doctrine of reincarnation. First, there are many practical problems. For example:
1. We must ask, why does one get punished for something he or she cannot remember having done in a previous life?
2. If the purpose of karma is to rid humanity of its selfish desires, then why hasn't there been a noticeable improvement in human nature after all the millennia of reincarnations?
3. If reincarnation and the law of karma are so beneficial on a practical level, then how do advocates of this doctrine explain the immense and ever-worsening social and economic problems - including widespread poverty, starvation, disease, and horrible suffering - in India, where reincarnation has been systematically taught through out its history?
There are also many biblical problems with believing in reincarnation. For example, in 2 Corinthians 5:8 the apostle Paul states, "We are confident, I say, and would prefer to be away from the body and at home with the Lord." At death, the, the Christian immediately goes into the presence of the Lord, not into another body. In keeping with this. Luke 16:19-31 tells us that unbelievers at death go to a place of suffering, not into another body.
Further, Hebrews 9:27 assures us that "man is destined to die once, and after that to face judgment." Each human being LIVES ONCE as a mortal on earth, DIES ONCE, and then FACES JUDGMENT. He does not have a second chance by reincarnating into another body.

Your life is miserable because you are experiencing it through the interpretations of your mind rather than just relaxing into what is here now. You make judgments about what is good and bad and you compare what you have or receive with what others have or receive. Then you desire what others have instead of enjoying what you have. I sense no gratitude in your statements for life and for the ability to communicate on the Internet and for a home and food etc., etc. Life is fair when you appreciate all that it gives you and all that you have now. There are many in this world that will never be able to access the Internet or even have more than a bowl of rice for dinner. You are one of the richest people in the world, where is your gratitude for all the gifts you do have? Once you stop complaining and start appreciating you will be in a position to accept more.

I do not believe God is teasing you, the God I know doesn't work like that. Life isn't fair. I want to be happy all the time but I realize that without any other emotion I wouldn't learn and grow. Pain brings about growth. It kind of sucks but in the end you are far better than before. Don't worry about what you don't have, that's kind of hard too but you are writing from a computer so you have access to some of life's luxuries in technology. I try to live morally correct and my feelings get hurt and I am treated unfairly and I wonder where is my reward but it is in me. My reward for now is that I am ok with myself, who I am, and what I have, and what I don't have even if others are not. I hope that you have better days ahead. :))

Wow...well, if you believe in the idea of reincarnation apparently, that is the purpose - come back to make amends for your previous life. That's an individual belief.
You sound to be quite a pessimist and one of the best ways to battle this is to allow things to happen as they should. Turn your will over to whatever god or higher power you believe in and let life flow. Don't analyse or believe it's a punishment. We don't all get our own ways.
There's a reason for everything

Negativity breeds negativity. As long as you have all the negative thoughts, good things will not come to you. You have to concentrate on the positive. You do good deeds for others and it will come back to you.

Calming chant

Though dark may seem so long.

Everything is alright.
I am always safe from harm,
The Goddess holds me in her arms.

I believe in God and I don't think he is teasing you. I also believe that you have chosen your path and are free to change it at any time. No you are not being punished for past life sins, but you are here to learn. Learn from mistakes, education, go forward. You do sound pessimistic, and its easy to allow life to do that to you. Pray on it, meditate, make what changes are necessary.

I know how u feel, all my life I've tried to be happy, and I only end up getting hurt, but remember what the bible says " when under trial let no one say "I am being tried be God" There's more to the scripture i just cant remember it... srry. but my point is that God doesn't give us more then we can bare and when things seem bleak its probably Satan, and when you thing God is teasing you that's exactly what Satan wants you to think, so remember that its not God teasing you, its Satan, and even thought at times you may feel completely alone just remember that God is always there, cheering you on even if it doesn't feel that way.

Every soul gets only one life on earth.

Several lives is Hindu belief made by rich Brahman class to silence the poor who are suffering with hunger. Brahmans who control religion give them hope for better life next time so they don't revolt against them.

Does Bible say that you get more than one life?

What is matter with you Americans. You believe every stupid thing you hear without using your own heads. Hindu burn their deads. So Christians have also started burning your deads relatives.

Does Bible teach to burn your dead relatives?

First of all, there's no 'god' involved. You yourself picked the circumstances for this life before you incarnated. You most likely chose difficult situations in order to grow and learn (and to balance off past karma).

Your life will only be "disappointing" if you allow it to be. Think positive in all aspects and positive things will start occuring around you.
