What Happens After Death - The Garuda Purana Explained By Gauranga Das

happiness through curiosity onto yours clips the last time we spoke about the garud puran yes it was probably two years ago that we spoke last um I don't think too many of the new viewers have even seen that episode right now which is why I would begin this question with a tiny recap on the garud puran sure but let's also talk about the Journey of the Soul at the point of death and after death sure up till the point of rebirth right um I will let you take it let me let me hear what you remember since you spoke to me about it I got very interested so I did my own research as well so some of it is based on what I have researched some of it is based on our last conversation please correct me when I'm wrong sure um is basically a set of rules and descriptions about what happens at the point of death and after death at the point of death it's supposed to be so physically mentally emotionally spiritually painful in all the possible formats of pain that you can think of the topper which is Detachment and attachment because you're still attached to your human life I am ranveer I'm leaving ranveer's body the soul gets extracted from that body and that's why it's painful correct that's the worst pain a human Spirit can ever endure which is why naturally all biological creatures are afraid of death naturally because we remember it from our past life and absolutely at that moment it hurts so much I don't want to go through again that's not that natural fear of death is inbuilt but the girl puran also describes what happens to your soul after you pass away I don't know whether this is a part of the government or not but they say that you're usually visited by a form of God that you understand the best whatever your vision of God is um which for many people would be their own gurus Guru takes you to the next point and the next Point can be positive or negative depending on your karmas and if you've done a lot of negative things in this realm you are made to pay for it in that Journey and that's where my morbid side actually got very interested because Souls that have not done good deeds in our realm on Earth are supposedly made to suffer extremely badly their way you're supposed to uh flow in a river that's full of boiling oil there are predators that eat away pieces of your Soul's flesh you're made to go through the same kind of suffering that you inflicted on this planet so that you learn your lesson so that you get punished and then you're presented with your whole life's report card that's where my understanding stops and maybe this is a morbid explanation so I'll allow you to correct me so fascinating I'm sure the youth who's watching this will think hey [Laughter] well the energy drops off it was a beautiful explanation so to summarize I'll you know give an example of when a criminal is caught by the police and usually criminals are in Disguise and the police are kind of chasing and they recognize and catch him and when they take him for interrogation and they inflict whatever they usually do and then only after a certain degree of pain which is given then the criminal says okay I am so and so otherwise he'll Begin by saying I am not this I am not this I am not this I am not this the criminal denies his identity and then finally when he accepts yes this is my identity then the process of reformation begins and then he is sent to the you know prison house and then transformation begins so it's exactly the same all the punishments which you describe have been given and in this planetary system 14 planetary system below are the various uh below the Pata loka are the various narakas or the hellish planets and you'll have to describe give tiny context on this 14 planetary system thing I remembered from my episode but just for the viewers so basically gives a complete different context of what's the geography of the space we are living in so it describes the particular Universe we are living in as having 14 planetary systems divided in terms of the consciousness and there are the upper seven planetary systems and the lower and we are in the middle at the buloka and depending on the kind of piety you earn you go up and depending on the kind of sins you perform you go down and that's what is the whole idea of the karma Factor heaven and hell heaven and so Heaven is upper and lower planetary systems and the last lower planetary system is called Pata loka below Pata loka are a group of hellish planets which is known as naraka and each of those planets has a specific kind of punishment and the person on behalf of Krishna who's managing that in the Bhagavad puran is described as yamaraja and his name comes in various other texts also and in India anyone who's practicing Hindu or born Hindu has always heard of yamaraja you you can feel free to describe each of the punishments no no okay okay the idea is that the nature of the punishments is so that a person has memory of that trauma when he again comes back to a better destination after going through that you mean whatever trauma he created in bhulok which is our world he remembers what he did by he's made to Remember by those uh you know yamadutas and then punished and then he is given a particular new opportunity after that depending on his karmic balance you know when we're talking about these punishments they're based on I don't want to say negative Karma but whatever negative Karma they are based on things you've done wrong exactly how wrong is wrong enough to go to those planets in terms of all of us have lied at some point in our life all of us have heard someone knowingly or unknowingly all of us have been late that's also way of hurting someone disrespect will these things send you there or it's a certain crime like murder or robbery like it's a very beautiful question that if you go into the technical details you will be in trauma all day therefore krsna says the way to live life just like as a citizen when you walk out of the house you don't think of all the sections in the Indian Penal Code which is going to land you in jail when you start a business or a startup you don't think all the different possible types of crimes which will put you behind bars under corporate you know laws you are thinking positive and all those are there as deterrence to prevent a person from doing those things so therefore there is a concept in Vedic literature is known as panchayagya which basically says that we commit various kinds of crime as soon as we are living in a space because you're burning your fire you're pouring water storing water you are cleaning the house you are breathing so all these things are creating by default millions and millions of deaths of bacteria and this and that and any plant is getting killed when we are eating you know when we are plucking and then finally eating so therefore is very clear that one Jiva will become the cause for destruction of another Jiva but let us follow the protocols of Freedom within boundaries so the important principle or the underlining statement is Freedom within boundaries understand what is my quota and live within that so the whole concept of Vedic literatures and Vedic living as they say is to help people understand that I can fulfill my needs while respecting others requirements and needs and living within those boundaries of restraint so therefore people say restraint or restraint is not good but say if someone is flying a kite the Rope of the kite is it good or bad someone may say oh it's bad it is holding the kite back but no it is helping the kite move farther up but you say oh if you cut the rope it can go much further if you cut after some time the kite will come down just like Runway is good or bad someone miss or Runway is restricting the movement of an aircraft the Boeing can an Airbus can fly much you know can go anywhere in the grass around no but the Restriction of the runway helps the airplane gather speed when the airplane gathers speed it can fly to an altitude and take you to a destination you could never have usually done with a simple bicycle therefore the restrictions described in all traditions are meant to help us focus and remain on the runway of Dharma so that ultimately we are able to elevate our Consciousness to such an extent that at the moment of death we actually go to a higher destination and that's how all Traditions have been working upon so the main factor is yes anything you do in life there will be something you'll be doing wrong but the idea is not that the idea is we become a law abiding citizen of the universe and follow the universal father okay um what's in those seven Heavenly planets yeah like and do you gradually progress up the ladder or if you've done enough good work in this realm you directly go to the top yeah so all those details are described in various Vedic literatures and what kind of piety will lead you to what destination that is also described so for example there is Indra loka where Indra is ruling and in Indra loka which is known as swargaloka the people have bodies which are subtle and practically there is long long life millions of years of lifespan and no distress only bhoga every moment is a festival for the senses so bhagavatam describes these Heavenly denizens are praying we are tormented by excessive pleasure of our senses therefore because we have a body which is fragrant the body is fragrant to such an extent when they would take bath in any kind of a river that River would become fragrant and there is nothing known as death till they leave that place so they are praying in the fifth Canto of srimad bhagavatam foreign that rather than millions of Lifetime millions of lives millions of years of a lifespan in Heavenly planet in swarga we prefer a few 80 to 100 years lifespan on Bharat bhumi why because the kind of spiritual knowledge and Awakening which is possible in Bharat is unbelievable if you enjoyed this video
