Evolution of love

AFTER DEATH

THE FATE OF MEN AFTER DEATH is determined by their life while on earth.

Those who cultivated goodness, sattva, and have become established in its taintlessness, are transported to

the angelic realms. Those whose natures were full of rajas, worldly attachments, are reborn on earth as ordinary

men and women or on other activity-saturated planets best suited to their passionate natures.

Those who immersed themselves in evil, tamas, reincarnate in the bodies of animals or in families

of base or bestial human beings, or in vile conditions affecting their nature and determining their state of existence;

or they may remain for long periods on dark astral spheres or on planets similar to earth but more heavily saturated

with suffering and violence.* These are the dark "wombs (yonis)," or places and states of birth, of all deeply deluded

beings when they transmigrate from one life to their next existence.
