Life After Death – Spiritual Explanation
Introduction
The discussion begins with the topic of life after death. Many books and videos have been created worldwide about what happens after death, but different people give different explanations based on their experiences.
The aim of this discussion is to understand the ultimate truth:
What happens after death?
Where does the soul go?
What is the subtle world (Sukshma Jagat)?
What is the purpose of human birth?
How do karma (actions) affect the soul after death?
Bapuji explains that life after death is not imaginary but part of a larger spiritual process connected with the soul, karma and cosmic laws.
What happens at the time of death?
The human body is made of five elements: Earth, Water, Fire, Air, Ether (space)
When death occurs:
The physical body (earth + water elements) remains on earth.
The soul leaves the body along with a subtle body. Subtle body is made of three elements Fire, Air, Ether
This subtle body carries: karmic record from this solar system of multiple rebirths, Impressions (sanskar), memory patterns and tendencies of thoughts. The soul itself is eternal and never dies. Karma accumulated during multiple life determines the condition of the subtle body.
Karma Record travels with the Soul
All actions performed in life create karmic bondage: good actions (punya) and bad actions (paap). These karmic records are stored within the soul itself.
According to karmic pattern and records our subtle body becomes light or heavy. And accordingly to subtle body state our soul's movement after death becomes easy or difficult. Heavy karma results in a heavier subtle body.
Why does a human take birth?
According to Bapuji’s explanation Initially, souls existed in higher spiritual states:
Angelic state ( Farishte)= very high soul purity
Devata (divine) state = divine but still within subtle creation. Has some satopradhan goon and wants
Human state= maximum exposure to Maya (illusion)
Over time, the power of the soul decreases due to Maya (illusion), desires, and karmic influence. When soul power reduces, the soul takes birth as human and enters the cycle of birth and death. Human birth is considered extremely valuable because it gives opportunity to:
gain spiritual knowledge- Soul can gain knowledge of God (Atma Gyan)
perform good karma
achieve liberation
reach higher spiritual dimensions such as>Mahalok >Janlok >Taplok > Brahmapuri > Vishnupuri > Shivpuri > Paramdham
Cycle of Birth and Fall of the Soul
According to Bapuji Lord Shiva creates divine creation. Souls initially exist in higher spiritual states. Gradual decline leads to embodiment in lower realms. Soul categories exist depending on spiritual purity.
Three gunas influence soul:
Sattva
Rajas
Tamas
Human soul becomes Tamopradhan due to ignorance and attachment to material world.
State of the Soul after death depends on Karma
Bapuji shares that condition of the soul after death depends on:
thoughts at the exact time of death (ant mati sow gati). Bapuji explains with giving examples
Idea that remembering specific deity determines post-death location.
remembering guru leads soul to that guru's realm.
ancestors reside in subtle world or sometimes moon region. Soul is carries there
karmic balance
spiritual knowledge
level of attachment on worldly belongings, relationships etc
Example: A student thinking about exam answers in last minutes resembles how a soul thinks about its life's actions at the time of death. Final thoughts influence the direction of the soul. the soul becomes influenced by:
Kama (lust)
Krodha (anger)
Lobha (greed)
Moha (attachment)
Maya (illusion)
Because of illusion, the soul forgets its original divine nature.
What happens to sinful souls?
Behad ka Gyan states that when strong desires remain unfinished then soul consciousness remains attracted to same vibrational field and such souls remain in lower subtle frequency zones
Souls who commit very negative actions (great sins) primarily remain earth-bound. They cannot cannot travel higher in subtle worlds. And stay near earth due to heavy karmic vibrations. Such souls may remain limited within short distance from earth. Heavy negative thoughts create heaviness in subtle body, reducing its ability to move freely. Human body contains approximately 75–80% water.
Example: Souls with strong addictions may remain near places associated with their desires. Such souls cannot significantly help humans spiritually because they themselves lack spiritual power.
“Ghost” is interpreted as: soul strongly attached to material identity after death.
Not all spirits are negative; some are simply confused or attached.
Accidents and mysterious disappearances
Bapuji says that “sookshma jagat runs stool jagat” Subtle forces influence physical events on earth. Behad ka Gyan o interprets such descriptions symbolically as Law of Karma operates beyond visible dimension.
Unexplained events symbolize:
karmic intersections
collective karmic fields
unseen causes beyond human perception
What happens to good souls?
Souls who perform good karma in lifetime like selfless charity, remembrance of God, unconditional service to humanity and follow spiritual discipline experience lighter subtle body and can travel to higher dimensions with ease. Their spiritual progress continues after death.
They may reach: spiritual learning centres in subtle worlds. Bapuji says that in subtle world there are many ashrams guided by sages and saints. Such good soul who depart with no attachment reaches to these higher realms and continue soul journey upwards,
Role of knowledge in soul's journey
Knowledge of: Creation, Nature of Soul and Law of karma theory helps the soul determine its future destination after death. According to the Bapuji the soul goes where its consciousness is focused.
Example:
If a soul remembers:
saints → joins saintly realm
ancestors → reaches ancestral plane
God → moves towards divine realms
Role of Saints, Sages, Gurus in Subtle World
Subtle world contains: temples , ashrams , knowledge centers Souls of saints guide other souls. Spiritual realms exist in layers upto 7.5 crore km range mentioned. There Souls meet Rishi, Maharishi, Brahmarishi
Each level represents higher knowledge. Rishi are those souls who realized sage in subtle world and Brahmarishi are more powerful souls and knows o\f Brahm (ultimate reality)
Example:
Vishwamitra took many births to attain Brahmarishi status. Ego prevents spiritual elevation. One who knows Nirakar Brahm (formless absolute) can reach Paramdham.
Law of Remembrance
Principle: Whom you remember, you reach.
Examples:
remember ancestors → Pitru loka
remember saints → saint realm
remember Krishna → Krishna realm
remember Supreme → Paramdham
Pitru tarpan performed for ancestral peace. Krishna described as incarnation of Supreme authority. Distinction made between idol worship and understanding true nature of divine.
Influence of thoughts on subtle body
Thoughts directly affect subtle body structure.
· Negative thinking: increases heaviness and creates obstacles in spiritual movement
· Positive thinking: makes subtle body lighter and helps spiritual ascent
Thus, spiritual practice during life prepares the soul for after-death journey.
Possible ranges mentioned by Bapuji to which souls can travel above earth based on stages of soul at death. Lower and heavier vibrations remain closest on earth plane. Lighter knowledgeable souls move further away from earth to much higher dimensions.
1 km --5 km --10 km ---50 km --100 km --500 km --1000 km
Highly evolved souls travel much further.
Souls of Soldiers and Patriots
Souls who sacrifice for country receive support from subtle world souls and remain in subtle dimension connected to duty . These souls may assist future events
Example: World War deaths produce many souls in subtle realm. Mental state at time of death influences future journey.
Akashic Record concept
All thoughts and actions are recorded in: soul and ether element (akash tatva). The universe acts like a cosmic supercomputer storing information. Places where saints performed meditation retain spiritual energy for long periods. Such places may influence people even after many years.
Rebirth process (Reincarnation)
Future birth is determined based on:
karmic account
spiritual needs
lessons required for soul growth
Guidance is provided by higher souls in subtle world.
Examples: A soul may choose: difficult life circumstances, physical limitations, poor family birth
in order to resolve karmic debts faster. Even disability is explained as karmic correction mechanism for rapid purification.
Importance of Human Life
Human life is considered rare and valuable because it provides opportunity to:
remove karmic impurities
attain self-knowledge
achieve karmateet stage (beyond karma)
move towards liberation
Living as a karmayogi (balanced action with spiritual awareness) is recommended.
Key Spiritual Principle
A central teaching emphasized: What the soul remembers deeply determines where it goes.
Spiritual preparation during life determines experience after death.
