@daarshik108: Your family was not given to y...

Your family was not given to you. It was assigned. Based on debts from a previous birth.

Karma does not forget. It cannot. It waited multiple lifetimes to reach you. And it is not done yet.

All you need to know about KARMA AND REBIRTH - 1/N 🧵

Whatever I am writing here is based a bit on the work of Shri K. N. Rao, combined with my own research and observations over the years.

In daily life the word karma gets used so loosely that it has lost almost all its actual meaning.

In the original framework, karma is not about punishment. Karma is a recording system that operates with complete mathematical precision.

Let me explain with the example of Mahabharata - which says Karmas recognize their doer just as a calf recognizes its mother even in a herd of thousands.

Not sometimes. Not usually. Always. Birth after birth, life after life, the record follows without a single missed entry.

What people call good luck is an old positive account arriving at its settlement date. What people call undeserved suffering is an old negative account doing the same.

Karma divides into three categories, let me explain it properly & clearly -

The first is Sanchita karma, the total accumulated balance of every action across all previous lives combined. The pile is so vast that no single lifetime can exhaust it.

Now the second one is called Prarabdha - Before each birth, a specific portion of that pile is selected and assigned for the current lifetime. That portion is called Prarabdha.

It carries both a positive side and a negative side, and both must be lived through.

And the last and The third type is Kriyaman, the karma being freshly made right now in the present life.

These three operate simultaneously at every moment. The Sanchita pile keeps accumulating from the Kriyaman.

The Prarabdha is being exhausted through experience. And what is freshly created in the Kriyaman goes back into the Sanchita pile for future births.

The only category where genuine free will operates is Kriyaman. The other two are already determined before birth begins.

What I personally found after examining hundreds of charts is that the Prarabdha is visible in the chart at birth if one knows where to look.

The condition of the lagna lord, the state of the Moon, the placement of Saturn, and crucially the Atmakaraka planet, the planet with the highest degree in the chart, all carry the fingerprint of what the soul is specifically here to exhaust in this lifetime.

The Atmakaraka in a particular house is not random. It tells which area of life carries the heaviest karmic debt from previous incarnations.

When the Atmakaraka is severely afflicted, that area of life will demand complete surrender before it yields anything.

No remedy changes this. The most a remedy does is shift the timing slightly. The account itself does not move.Prarabdha cannot be averted.

The scriptures say this without softening it at any point. The text says directly: prarabdha has to be suffered, both its positive side and its negative side. Without exhausting it completely, the bondage of karmas does not clear even in thousands of births.

And by this understanding of karma you can understand the Remedies in astrology - mantras, gemstones, rituals, at best delay certain results or relocate them to the next birth. None of them cancel the account.

here you can learn something from the Rakadiya Hanuman Baba, one of the great yogis of India, had a deep wound on his thigh and refused every kind of treatment that was brought to him. All he said was: let me suffer my prarabdha.

That is what genuine understanding of karma looks like when it becomes lived acceptance. Most people never reach this understanding. Most people spend enormous energy fighting prarabdha with remedies while the prarabdha simply waits.

Apart from karma there is VIKARMA.

What actually VIKARMA IS ?

This is the category that creates the longest and most painful cycles of rebirth. Vikarma means anti-parental karma, anti-family karma, anti-social karma, and actions that the tradition describes as inhuman. Vikarma does not merely produce suffering in the current birth. Vikarma produces lower births, terrible chains of rebirths, and conditions where no amount of external effort produces any meaningful change.

After studying charts over many years, I began to notice specific combinations that consistently appear in the charts of those who carry heavy vikarma from previous incarnations.

and whatever I'm mentioning here is fhe final or last , these are the possible combinations - A debilitated 5th lord connected to the 8th or 12th house. A severely afflicted 9th house with Rahu placed in it or aspecting its lord.

The lagna lord in an enemy sign with Saturn involved. These are not surface-level bad combinations. These are signatures of a soul carrying the weight of previous serious wrongdoing into the present birth.

The Markendeya Purana describes the signs of a soul that has come from the lower planes through the consequences of vikarma.

The description is precise & it says- constant malicious criticism of others, complete absence of gratitude, disclosing the secrets of those who trusted them, cruelty, harshness in speech, depriving others through fraudulent practices, staying physically unclean, condemning spiritual practices, extreme miserliness, murder of one kind or another.

These are not random personality flaws that developed in this life. These are the marks of samskaras, deep impressions from actions in previous incarnations, that have embedded themselves into the character of the present birth. When I see these traits in a person and then examine their chart, the astrological signature almost always confirms that specific planetary combinations are carrying the weight of those previous actions.

The reason a soul takes birth at all is outstanding karma. Physical death does not end anything. What transmigrates from one body to the next is not the physical form. What moves is the astral body, called in Sanskrit the Linga Deha or Sookshma Deha. This astral body carries the complete record of every action, every unfulfilled desire, every karmic debt owed and collected across all previous births.

Liberation is not the dissolution of the physical body. Every person on earth achieves that. Liberation is the dissolution of the astral body itself.

As long as the astral body exists and carries outstanding karma, birth continues.

Gita Jee (Updesha by Shree Krishna) explains this in a way that removes all ambiguity. Those who are born will die. Those who die will be reborn.

The physical form simply wears out like old clothing. The astral body changes garments and continues.What determines the specific circumstances of the next birth is the dominant thought and dominant emotion at the exact moment of death.

Gita Updesha is very clear on this. Whatever object a person is intensely thinking about at the moment of death, that is what they attain in the next life. That final dominant thought is not separate from the life that was lived. It is the distillation of the entire life's attachments and fears compressed into a single moment.

A mind fixed on the divine at death moves toward liberation. A mind filled with fear, attachment, incomplete business, or powerful desire returns to fulfill exactly what it was holding in those last seconds.

This is why the scriptures of Sanatana Dharma place extraordinary emphasis on the manner of dying, on maintaining spiritual awareness as death approaches, on prayer in the final hours. The entire trajectory of the next birth is set by what the mind holds in those last breaths.

The most specific teaching about why we are born into particular families is called Rinanubandhan, meaning the bondage of undischarged debts.

The Padma Purana explains it without metaphor or softening. Those who gave loans in the past life become our relations in the present birth. Some of them are those whose property was taken through fraud or illegality. The spouse, the parents, the children, the siblings, all are born as a result of outstanding karmic debts.

Each one arrives according to the dominant motive that was active at their moment of death. In the present birth, that motive fulfills itself and after delivering its measure of pain or joy, that soul departs.

In my own observations across many charts and many families, Rinanubandhan explains things that no other framework can explain.

Why a particular child brings tremendous suffering to parents who are otherwise fine people. Why a marriage that seemed perfect dissolves overnight. Why a parent dies right when a child was about to begin their most important phase of life.All of it is an old account settling.

Let me tell you one very specific combination for this - when a child's natal Moon falls on the parent's 12th house cusp or on the parent's 8th lord's position, the relationship between parent and child carries a particularly heavy rinanubandhan signature. The debt runs deep and old. The relationship will be intense, often painful, and the resolution, if it comes at all, comes late in life when both have suffered enough to clear the account.

Similarly, when the 7th lord of one person's chart falls on the 12th house of the spouse's chart, the marriage carries the energy of a debt being repaid rather than a partnership being built.

These are not random observations. These patterns repeat without exception. And these are not final combinations as well, there are multiple such combinations and planetary positions through which you can judge complexity in relationships.

The most thoroughly studied and verified rebirth case in modern times is the case of Lugdi and Shanti Devi, and this case is holistically discussed in the one book of shree K N Rao. Here a few things I'm adding from my own research, finding and observation as well.

Lugdi was born in Mathura in January 1902. In October 1925, during the planetary period of Moon-Rahu-Venus, she died in terrible agony during her third childbirth.

Her death was violent and her dominant emotion at that final moment was the extreme terror of marriage and of pregnancy. The trauma of that death was so intense that it did not release.

In December 1926, a girl was born in Delhi who from the age of four began giving her family specific names, specific addresses, the name of her previous husband, details of her previous children, and described her previous home in Mathura with a precision that was later verified by a committee organized by Mahatma Gandhi himself.

The girl refused to marry for the entirety of her adult life. The fear from the previous death had embedded itself so completely into the personality of the next birth that it functioned as a permanent samskara.

The astrological connection between both these births is where the teaching stops being theoretical and becomes something that can be verified precisely. Let me explain it for you in simple words -

Lugdi died in the dasha of Moon-Rahu-Venus. Shanti Devi, the next birth, was born in the dasha of Rahu-Mercury. The dasha running at the moment of death and the opening dasha of the next birth are connected.

Across multiple documented rebirth cases examined with their horoscopes placed side by side, this pattern holds without a single exception.

The planets running at the moment of departure leave their signature on the first dasha of the returning soul. The horoscope itself, from the very first day of the new birth, carries the planetary fingerprint of the previous death.

Let me discuss a few more aspects of Shanti devi Case -

In Shanti Devi's horoscope from this second birth, the 5th lord is retrograde and connected with the 12th house. This is the specific combination that consistently appears in the charts of those who carry strong memories or strong samskaras from a previous birth.

The 5th house in Vedic astrology holds what is called Poorva Punya, meaning the merit or the debt carried forward from the previous life. A retrograde 5th lord pulled toward the 12th house means the soul has not completed something in the previous life and that incompleteness is still active in the present chart.

Over years of examining charts, I have found that whenever this specific combination appears with strong affliction, the person carries phobias, recurring dreams, or inexplicable resistances in this life that have no cause in this lifetime because their cause is in the previous one.

Across almost twenty-five verified rebirth cases that were examined with horoscopes of both births available, one pattern appeared without a single exception and after studying-researching changed how I read every family chart after that.

Most people who die without reaching liberation are reborn in the same family. Pooran Singh was reborn as the son of his own younger sister. Rampratap Singh came back as the grandson of his own father. The Jaipur case involved a man who was reborn as his own brother's son. There are multiple examples.

The rinanubandhan does not release until the debt is completely settled. The same souls return to the same circle because the unfinished account is specifically with those people. Different faces, new birth, but the same old contract running underneath.

The only cases where a soul moved to an entirely different family were cases where the previous death was so traumatic and the emotional attachment so severed that the soul was pulled into a completely new orbit.

Two types of people remember their past lives and the distinction between them is important.

Genuine yogis who through extended meditative practice develop the capacity to observe their own samskaras directly.

And ordinary people who died a violent or non-normal death in the previous birth. The intensity of physical pain and emotional shock at the moment of a violent death is so strong that it does not dissolve at death the way a peaceful death dissolves. It carries over into the next birth and surfaces in the early years of childhood as specific memories, specific fears, and specific physical sensations.

Lord Shiva explains it : when a person dies suddenly somewhere and is born again suddenly, the old habits and samskaras remain for some time. As the child grows, these memories fade like a dream slowly disappearing after waking. But the impressions, the samskaras, remain embedded in the personality even after the explicit memories fade.

Now let me introduce you with the karmic angles in a chart - Rahu and Ketu, What Ketu and Rahu in a chart are actually telling, once this entire framework is understood, is one of the most useful things a chart reveals about the soul's direction across lifetimes.

Ketu placed in a house indicates what the soul mastered extensively in previous births. The abilities and circumstances of that house come easily in this life but the soul is not meant to invest its primary energy there. Over-attachment to Ketu's house in this life creates stagnation because the soul is clinging to what was already completed.

Rahu placed in a house indicates what the soul is newly learning in this incarnation, what was neglected or avoided in previous births. Rahu's house feels obsessive, excessive, and never fully satisfying because the soul has no ancestral mastery in that area. The hunger there is the hunger of something being learned for the first time at a cosmic level.

This Rahu-Ketu axis is the single most direct reading of the soul's karmic direction across births, and it changes everything about how one understands a person's life trajectory.

Let me share a story with you - The story of Sadan the butcher from the Guru Granth Sahib holds the complete teaching of rinanubandhan in a single moment, and it is the story I return to most often when explaining this entire subject.

Sadan slaughtered goats every day of his working life. One evening, as he was about to cut a goat, the goat began to speak in a human voice. The goat said: Oh Sadan, do not do this. Why do you not stop this cycle. We have been slaughtering each other for so many births. In the last birth, the butcher was me and the goat was you. The cycle continues until someone stops it.

That single moment of recognition changed Sadan completely. He put down the knife and spent the rest of his life as a devotee of God.

The Guru Granth Sahib names him among those who reached salvation. The goat was not describing a single transaction. The goat was describing multiple births of the same debt cycling between two souls.

That is rinanubandhan without any metaphor. Every painful relationship in life, every person who seems to arrive only to hurt and depart, is that same cycle looking for someone to put down the knife first.

After years of reading charts, examining verified rebirth cases, sitting with the scriptures, and watching how the dashas unfold in the specific patterns, one thing becomes absolutely clear - Nothing in a human life is accidental.

The family is a settlement house for old accounts. The children who bring joy are delivering on old positive karma. The children who bring nothing but pain are collecting an old debt. The marriage that seems to arrive from nowhere and feel like destiny is a debt from a previous birth arriving at its scheduled time. And the marriage that slowly breaks apart is that same debt concluding its term.

Even the specific time of birth, which particular dasha opens the life, which planets are operating in the first years of childhood, all of it is the prarabdha arranging itself with the precision of a legal document.

What this entire study, these years of research, these hundreds of charts, these verified case studies ultimately point toward is one practical conclusion- The karma that creates new bondage is attachment-based action.

The karma that dissolves bondage is action done completely, honestly, and without holding the result.

The shree krishna Updesha calls this Akarma, action that leaves no karmic residue because it was not performed for personal gain or personal protection.

Every ordinary action taken with attachment to its result becomes Kriyaman karma, goes into the Sanchita pile, and arranges itself as Prarabdha in a future birth.

Every action done from genuine dharma without the need for a particular result leaves no such residue.

Adi Shankaracharya compressed the entire condition of the human soul into four lines that have survived fifteen hundred years: taking birth again and again, dying again and again, sleeping again and again in the womb of the mother, the world is so difficult a place. Lord, rescue me from all this and give salvation. Whatever has been shared in this thread is a small fraction of what this subject actually contains. The roots of karma run far deeper than any single thread can reach.

This was a bit about karma and rebirth - this is an endless topic and almost impossible to combine in a twitter thread but still i tried my best.

Hope it helps you.
