One MONK was caught of plucking and eating mangoes from tree and taken Him to court for hearing.
Judge asked the MONK, “Did you pluck and ate the mangoes from the tree?”
MONK said, “Yes”
Judge: Why?
MONK: I was hungry.
Judge: “Did you know that this tree does not belongs to you and owner of this tree had complained on you of trespassing and plucking and eating the mangoes from the tree.”
MONK: “Oh is it ! ”
Judge: Are you guilty of your act?
MONK: "No".
Judge: But, You agreed that you pluck and ate the mangoes from tree!
MONK: Yes
Judge: Then how come you say you are not guilty?
MONK to Judge: "GOD had made this world, nature and whole this Universe, HE is real owner and also this tree belongs to HIM and HE had kept inside the mango a delicious taste so that everyone can enjoy HIS creation and I was Hungry so I plucked the mango from tree and ate it."
Judge kept silent for a while and said: Oh! You are accepting that you ate mango and saying you are not guilty!
MONK asked the Judge: “Are you guilty of being Judge and giving decision”?
Judge with agony and confused face asked the MONK, “No, Why you are asking this question?”
MONK to Judge: “According to my knowledge and belief only GOD has the power to take decision and judge, everyone knows it and even you knows it, in spite of this you are taking HIS position and judging people and giving decision on the facts and evidence available to you in the court, if no facts and evidence available even guilty will be released with full respect and if someone who is really innocent fails to prove his innocence he will be sentenced to punishment. What an irony!? WHEN YOU ARE NOT GUILTY OF SUCH A BIG ACT HOW COME I AM? WHICH IS NOT AT ALL A CRIME.
Judge and all people there were stunned with no answer!
Well, there are so many things in life which does not have a proper answer, better to keep quite and leave it to GOD, according to Judge it is a mistake from MONK side where as from MONK side the scenery is totally different.
In our life we also do so many mistakes and take it to granted, but we always point out at others mistakes and try to make them realize that they had done mistake; if some one judges or gives advice or suggestion to us we ask, "Who are you to do so"; we think we can judge the people around us and think that we are perfect where as fact is that we are still imperfect and immature thats why we are still living this Human life full of misery, and we go aganist "Law of Nature or GOD" and only our Ego reflects in day to days activities; does any one had done "SELF INTROSPECTION" - are we guilty!?
Sleep - death & Wake up - Re-birth? – By Mr. N. Praveen
The below subject will make you think and inspire yourself to find an answer.
We sleep every night and wake up next morning,
We forget ourselves totally when we are sleeping,
If anyone harms us in sleep stage we will not come to know,
Indirectly it is one stage of death,
And wake up in morning is one stage of re-birth again.
We get spiritually recharged in sleep and get relief from our day to day stress; we wake up fresh to next day’s activities, if we do not sleep well we would not remain healthy for that day’s activities.
We do remember ourselves when we wake up in the morning since all the previous activities are recorded in our Sub-Conscious mind, if it erases then what? Temporally death of that person in the same body / life? If he recalls it back then what? Re-birth of that person in same body / life?
If there is sleep and wake up, then there is birth, death and re-birth also, right?
Sleep is a natural activity and since we do remember ourselves when we wake up and we do not take the freshness of that wakeup seriously. Do we take it seriously if we forget our previous activities and became blank when we wake up?
When we get temporally death (Sleep) and re-birth (wake-up) in the same body with all previous activities recorded in sub-conscious mind and getting those activities shifted to our conscious mind and recalling all memories of being ourselves we do not consider this as death, as body was alive even in the stage of sleep, but one thing to be remembered that we had lost our conscious when we are sleeping and if anyone harms our body we will not come to know, then where was our conscious when we sleep? It means that we are alive because of our sub-conscious mind? Is sub conscious mind is we a real existence?
What if a person sleep and wake up next morning and does not recalls his previous activities happened in present body life, but, instead that person recalls something else and starts speaking different language which that person had never spoken and learned in that present body life? Is that person changed in same body? Is that person recalled their previous birth? Or what else?
What if that person sleeps again and wake up fresh with his present body life memories, is that person forgotten previous birth memories?
There are so many incidences in which so many persons had recalled their previous birth memories and proved it to be true, but they are not in a position to give correct answer about how death occurred or took place? How they left previous body? What happened to them after leaving body? Where they went? How they took new birth / re-birth in present body life? If they had recalled their previous birth memories, then what about previous, previous births? What makes them to feel that they recalled their previous birth memories? Do they believe in re-birth again?
What if a person recalls all memories of their previous birth? Can they manage such a flow of information’s in their mind? Does their mind stop processing, get confessed about life or existence or burst out due to mix of so many previous life memories? Then what will be their identity? Who am I, this or that? Which memory is their real self?
May be for this reason GOD had blessed us to forget our previous birth memories and be happily live in present life.
It means we are not this body; we are something else, which we call “SOUL”, right?
If we are soul then from where do we came? What is our real identity? What is the link between us “SOUL” and GOD a “SUPREME SOUL”, father / mother of all “SOULS”?
WHO AM I?
WHY I TOOK THIS BIRTH?
WHAT IS MY ROLE IN THIS LIFE?
We all are here to find out answer for above questions and gain real knowledge about us and finish the work assigned by GOD to do in this present LIFE and return back to our real HOME, real PLACE, real EXISTENCE of us.
If we do not complete the work assigned by GOD in this present life, then? Take re-birth to complete that pending work, if not completed in this life also then take birth again and again to complete the assigned work?
“”“Punarapi Jananam, Punarapi Maranam.”””
We had forgotten our real existence and work assigned by GOD and got stuck up by so many desires and going in wrong path that is why we are facing so many miseries.
To escape this cycle of rebirth and to attain salvation (Mukthi / Moksha) we require "GURU" (Spiritual Teacher).
According to spiritual knowledge given by our saints and sages and many holy books, rebirth will be according to our Sanskara and Karma (Papa and Punya achieved in previous birth).
""Punarathi Jananam and Punarathi Maranam.""
To escape this cycle of rebirth and to attain salvation (Mukthi / Moksha) we require "GURU" (Spiritual Teacher).

So many time we come across this type of words that is
While eating Mango (or any fruit or eatable)
we say, "This taste same as which we ate last time".
Now,
Is that mango got re birth?
or
The quality of that taste got Re-exist?
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
So many times we say this child behaves like our grand pa / grand uncle etc.,
Now,
The same person had got re-birth?
or the quality of those persons had been re-existed in this child?
