Guest guest Posted April 13, 2004 Report Share Posted April 13, 2004 Dear John and all, a friend explained more about the "world of manes" to me - i thought it was interesting enough to share with the list. Seems like the prospects my of afterlife are slightly looking up:)))))) "In this cosmic manifestation the conditioned soul can reincarnate in 4 levels. 1. The world of devas (demigods). 2. The world of the Manes (pitris or ancestors). 3. Tiryaloka (literary lower especies of life) where humans are the leaders. 4. The asuric planets (planets of demons). Although there are some rules in Jyotish books about where the soul is coming from or where it is going to, it is just a general rule because higher authorities called devas are in control of our karmic activities and ultimately, the mercy of Krishna can change the rules. <snip>..... although some people think that they are going to be better off in the world of the pitris, he read somewhere that they may go there but as slaves because other demigods are so envious that they do not allow the soul to have a middle or exalted position b ut only a lower position."
