Human souls don’t reincarnate in the 84 lakh species

Many kinds of species are found in this nature. Among them, human life is considered to be the best. As the saying goes: it is a great fortune to attain a human life. Because according to the scriptures, someone gets a human life after wandering in the 84 lakh species. It is said: to suffer the consequences of his bad karma, a human being has to complete the cycle of 84 lakh species and then, by performing good karma in a human body, he attains moksha. But does he attain moksha in reality? Is it necessary for a human being to have birth in other species to suffer the consequences of his bad karma?
Today, we shall cast light on all these beliefs with the help of a few facts.

1.Tree and seed: As is the seed, so shall the tree be. If a mango seed is sown, only a mango tree will grow. Bananas can’t grow from a mango seed. When a seed is sown again and again, it can lose its power but the species can’t change. For example, wheat can’t grow into rice. In the same way, the soul is also a seed. It is called ‘ruuh’ in the Muslim religion and ‘spirit’ in Christianity. Science considers it as ‘energy’. There is a principle of science, which goes: ‘energy is neither created nor destroyed’. It means, the soul is eternal; it is neither created nor destroyed.

2. Karmic accounts with human beings:  Because of being intellectual beings, we form karmic accounts with other human beings. So, our next birth should also be with human beings.
3. Increasing population: Had wandering in the 84 lakh species been compulsory, the population of the human beings should have been very less. But the population of the human beings is increasing incessantly whereas many other species are becoming extinct. When the very species are becoming extinct, how can someone say that there is a cycle of 84 lakh species in total?
4. Poverty, a multitude of sins: If human beings have to reincarnate in other species to suffer punishment for their sins, why are they sorrowful today? In fact, every human being should be happy. But it is seen today that human beings are carrying load like donkeys, they have become ferocious like lions and sorrow giving to one another like insects and spiders. To suffer the consequences of their sins, they become blind, lame, leper in the human species itself. They die on roadsides begging for a piece of bread in winters. And the dogs of the rich travel in cars. They are well taken care of. Today, dogs have milk and rice to eat whereas children cry out of hunger. Today, happiness is for those who have money. They consider this very world to be heaven. As for the poor, this world is not just hell but a horrible hell. The rich have different kinds of delicacies and the poor don’t get even a single piece of bread to eat. There are even such villages where people eat rotis made of mud to survive. Even poets have said about poverty “naahi daridra sam paatak puunjaa”. It means, when a person commits a lot of sins, he has to face poverty.

5. Darwin’s theory: According to Darwin’s theory, earlier, human beings were monkeys. But no one ever thought, if monkeys were the ancestors of human beings, why didn’t other monkeys also evolve into human beings? Why did the species of the monkeys keep evolving? All monkeys should have evolved into human beings. Today, in spite of the fact that Darwin’s theory has been proven wrong, some scientists are still in doubt and some are trying to prove it right.
6. Scientific researches: In hundreds of researches conducted by Indian as well as foreign scientists, not even a single person said that they were an animal or a bird in their previous life. In fact, every one of them has mentioned being in a human species.
7. Alteration in the scriptures: On one side, the cycle of 84 lakh species has been mentioned in the scriptures and on the other side, there are such examples in those very scriptures where human beings have been shown to have reincarnated in the human species itself. For example, in the Mahabharata, there is the mention of Shikhandi who was Amba in her previous birth. Draupadi was a devotee of Shiva in her previous birth and there are many more examples in the scriptures like Devaki and Vasudev, Yashoda and Nand etc. There is no coordination in the various stories of the scriptures. There is no proof for any claim. It is because as time passed, many alterations were made to the scriptures. Consequently, truth vanished. It is because in whatever way someone understood the scriptures, he interpreted them in the same way and the Indians blindly accepted those interpretations. It is worth giving a thought that when a human being doesn’t have the complete memory of even a single birth, how can anyone explain the calculation of the 84 lakh species? Sages, saints and holy men interpreted the concept of ‘the 84 lakh species’ according to their own opinion so that no one would ask for a calculation of it. Nevertheless, in the Shrimad Bhagvad Gita, there isn’t a single shloka in which the 84 lakh species have been mentioned. The Gita has been said to be the crown jewel among all the scriptures. No human being can deny its truth as it has directly been narrated by God.
All these facts prove that a human soul has birth only in the human species. In this way, the belief of being born in the 84 lakh species is proved to be false. And along with it, the theory of reincarnation is proved true.
