World Population has touched almost 7.25 billion out of which our country's contribution is 1.25 billion which amounts to 16%. Approximately within hundred years all of those who have figured in the number will have died. Ever since Homo sapiens have made their presence on this earth plane uncountable individuals have lived and passed away. Though we are mortals the overlap of the individuals makes the human race immortal. Immortality is for the human race not for the individual human being; hence the bottom line is that death is a reality that everyone has to face inevitably.

When Yaksha asked Yudhisthira, “What is the most amazing thing in this universe?” Dharmaraja replied, “The most amazing thing is that even though every day one sees countless living entities dying, he still acts and thinks as if he will live forever.” And to add to that it is a known fact that most of them avoid the subject of death as if it is a taboo and for them death is far from their thoughts. Why is it so??? It is because they imagine living forever this is Abhinivesha (self-love out of ignorance).  Yet, millions of them die every year irrespective of weather they are young or old, healthy or sick owing to a variety of causes like disease, accidents and crime.

When the death is due to accident or crime it is obvious to link them to the past karma. But most importantly disease is also due to past karma and many a times they become the cause for the effect called death. The invention of modern medicine is indeed laudable where new medicines and healing practices are constantly researched to help a patient. However it is evident that people are still falling sick and diseases are becoming ever weirder. It is normal for a person who falls sick to go to a doctor, take pills prescribed and if not controlled receive injections and if even more severe diagnose and if required get a surgery done. Doctors who are considered second God try their level best to treat the patient sincerely as they firmly believe that for every kind of disease, there are corresponding ways to heal it.

Pharmaceutical scientists are on constant research and inventing antibiotics to fight viral and bacterial diseases however, whenever those microbes become resistant even to those antibiotics, there has to be a new search all over again. This has an adverse effect on the patient who concludes that there is no reliable method of treatment. Such patients become impatient and often turn to every kind of treatment prescribed by others to them. In a way they subject their body to every possible experiment and finally give way for psychological illness to take over the physical disease. How can a patient be free from this psychological illness???   

Being aware that the karma from past lives has a causal effect on diseases in the present life will prevent a patient from getting anxious and falling prey to psychological disorders regarding their aliment. Awareness gives the patient the endurance required to accept the disease and cope with it instead of putting stress on the mind. The gross body is the perfect vehicle for our physical experience to fulfill the intention for our life. It is necessary for us to keep the vehicle in perfect condition always and no doubt there has to be a constant exercise in this regard. But if the vehicle has developed a minor problem beyond repair but the engine is running perfect it wise to carry on with it and not to harass the driver unnecessarily. Well the driver is as important as the vehicle. It is said that a happy mind has a healthy body ….. Right???????
