Transmigration of Souls
Transmigration differs from Reincarnation in several ways.
First a human soul is different from an animal soul a plant soul or a
still life soul (like a rock). A human soul is not an evolved animal soul.
It is always human.
A soul can transmigrate into several souls or several souls can join into
one soul. So the "hands" of a soul can become a whole soul. This is
because a soul is not particulate. Each "part" of a soul is a whole soul.
When a person passes on, his/her soul goes before the Upper Court and all
his/her deeds are judged. Sometimes in order to fix bad deeds the soul
must descend to "hell". Hell is not a different place than heaven it is
just that the soul when not in a body he/she cannot lie to itself. He/she
therefore REALLY knows and feels just what each deed was and how it made
others feel. It can also see and feel all the consequences of the deed or
even of a word or thought. This can be the greatest hell.
To cleanse the soul and allow it to go higher several "punishments" may be
meted out.
1) The beating in the Grave.
The soul is put back with the body. 5 Angels of Destruction accompany it.
1 to hold the hands, 1 to hold the feet, 1 to read the record book, 1 to
count lashes, 1 to administer the lashes with whips of chain & fire.
This is done to separate the soul from its physical attachments.
2) The slingshot.
The soul is whipped back and forth accross the universe.
This is to separate the soul from its attachment to time and space.
3) Grave sins may sometimes cause Gilgul - Reincarnation as an animal a
tree or a raock. This is very terrible for a human soul as it cannot
actualize. It also suffers because of the non human form.
A worse Gilgul is when the soul is sent down without a body as a ghost. A
soul like this is dangerous as it is in such suffering that it will try to
inhabit a host.
All these "punishments" are to cleanse the soul of its finite perspective.
If a soul has not finished its mission, It, or part of it will come back
as a human to finish.
This is partial
