Life Reincarnation is mainly a vedic philosophical concept that an aspect of living being starts a new life in a different physical body after each bio-logical death. It is a central point of vedic literature. Then other Indian religions such as Buddhism, Jainism and Shikh follows this concept.
But today I am going to discuss regarding Reincarnation and Astrology. We all know the twin beliefs of Karma and Reincarnation are among Hinduism many jewels of knowledge. Karma literally means “deed or act”, but more broadly it describes the principle of cause and effect. Simply stated Karma is a law of action and reaction which governs consciousness. In metaphysics, Karma is the law that states that every mental, emotional and physical act, no matter how insignificant, is projected out into the physic mind substance and eventually returns to the individual with equal impact.
In ‘Bhagvad Gita’ Lord Shree Krishna says to Arjuna -
Chapter 2, verse 22
It means during our day to day lifes we change our old and dirty cloths and take a new/clean cloths whenever we need. Similarly, the Souls or Aatman costs off its worn out physical body at regular intervals of time. Soul is immortal but the physical body is mortal.
This shloka or verse refers to the doctrine of Reincarnation in Vedic philosophy. Death is described here as the simple process of a worn out garments for a new one. Death is nothing but a change attire in an uninterrupted continuity of immortality. In ‘Bhagvad Gita’, chapter number 2, verse number 23 Lord Krishna states to Arjuna-Lord Krishna states Aatman can not be harmed by weapons- and since it is formless and shapeless — it can not be cut into pieces by any instruments. In the same way, fire can not burn it or destroy it. Water can not wet it because water can act only elements which have physical description or dimensions. For the same reason wind can not dry it or exart any force on it. Thus the Aatman is beyond the influence of all three primary forces which can affect entities having physical form and description.
