After Death, an ultimate truth. by Harshavardhan C (comprehension books .TXT) 📕

“What book?” The doctor cross questioned him.

“I mean I was reading a novel while flying to India” Prof. R K told him.

“Okay Mr. R K you relax and I will certainly find it”

The doctor immediately instructed one of his staff members to search it.

Accordingly his baggage was brought and handed over to the surgeon.

The doctor took out the book and gave it to Prof. R K.

“Really I am forever thankful to you doctor” Said Prof. R K. and looking into the pages of the novel curiously.

The surgeon was surprised on notice Mr. R K’s anxiety in receiving the book ‘After Death, an ultimate Truth’, a novel written by Dr. Jinnah in English.

Generally the post operated patients ask only for Holy books like Bhagavad-Gita, Quran, Gurugrandh and Bible. But in contrary Prof. R K asked for a social novel.

“Is it that interesting Mr. R K?” The surgeon asked him out of curiosity.

“Yes doctor”

The doctor was surprised to hear from an operated patient, because while in ICU Prof. R K didn’t ask for any of the holy books, but was truly fond of a love story.

“Yes doctor, indeed it is a great book and one has to read it at least once in life time, as it touches our hearts and teaches us the true human relations but not isms” Prof. R K said quite emotionally.

“Any way, after surgery I could see some change in you Mr. R K and you are becoming quite emotional; are you feeling any discomfort Mr. R K?” The surgeon enquired him on seeing his abnormality.

“I am alright doctor, in fact earlier I used to read my subject books only, but for the first time I have read, an Indian love story in English, written by a Pakistan National. The story is not a fiction. In fact it has really happened and it leaves a message to the world regarding life, after death, about the existence of soul and that is why I troubled you to bring it. Anyway I thank you and your staff for your timely attendance, surgery and treatment to me” He said in jubilance.

“So you are proving that from now onwards you are turned from Archaeologist’ to Archaeobibiologist (Person interested in reading books)” The surgeon said smilingly.

“You are absolutely right doctor, and who so ever read the books like ‘After death, an ultimate truth’ may certainly become Archaeobibiologists” Said Prof. R K.

And later he preserved the book under his pillow; perhaps he may start propagating the existence of life, after death, and finally the existence of the soul.

Chapter: 27

“Truth and nonviolence are as old as human existence. Truth is not a lie. It is not hypocrisy. It is what the humane practice. It is what the mankind is supposed to think about. It is not something else, which one needs to search somewhere, but it is within human beings only; and they have to make a sincere effort to explore it and finally understand it.

It can only be possible when the human beings open their mouth to speak truth; open their eyes to see truth; and alert their ears to hear truth. Then what is truth need not be explained to human beings. And then truth alone triumphs in the world.

But in the modern world most of the human beings are only thinking about themselves and not for their fellow beings. Their only concern is their self. Most of the people have almost forgotten the concepts of live and let the others also live is happily. And no where we can find the one world nation and universal fraternity and they almost remain as Ethiopian.

Even the ferocious lioness will never hunt its prey if it is not hungry. But, the human beings are ready to kill their fellow beings only for their aggrandisement. Even the lioness never sores anything as reserve, but here are humans who are greedy to accumulate as much as possible. For them there is no scale to satisfy their thirst to exploit more and more.

And then the most selfish and cruellest living being on the surface of the earth obviously is the mankind.

In search of the truth only many great and historical personalities tried, still there have been few great people trying, but nothing could be found.

If the concept of truth is understood by the people, the net result is equally there is no fear of life after death; and they never commit sins in their aggrandizement for selfish ends.

Intellectuals, philosophers, philanthropists, God sent men like Lord Buddha, Jesus, Mahatma Gandhi, Mother Theresa propagated peace and non violence.

And they left a great legacy to the world and to the mankind. Certainly, it is not war and violence, but peace and nonviolence and be good and do well, which is the ultimate truth and a benevolent message they have finally given to the wonder world.

There is nothing to gain or lose in this materialistic world for any being, except leaving a page or two to remember thy good experiences.

But do any of us are having any such enriched experiences?

To answer this question is rather difficult for us as we are still human than humane. But, it got to be answered by everybody at some point of time in this life only before we die; and the answer should be definitely positive.

For those who practice this in true spirit, certainly death fears even to touch them because they live forever not only in books in the racks of the libraries, as statues in streets and in museums but also in the hearts of the people forever as long as the human civilization flourishes”

Truly yours,

Dr.Jinnah.

Epilogue:

“Ladies and gentlemen, be at the cremation/burial of the dead of your beloved alone after the funeral for one complete day and night to know what next ‘After death’ and so also to answer the ultimate truth or mysterious questions:

What is life?

What is death?

What happens after death?

What is soul?

Where it is?

Does all living beings are having souls?

It is not far from truth that except abnormal persons and those making thesis over the subject, almost all persons in the world may not stay back alone at the cremation/burial. And at the same time, we shall not forget the fact that the cremated/ buried is our beloved one, but still we fear to stay back at the cremation/burial.

Does it mean that we fear our own beloved for whom we wept, and offered final rites?

Do we fear that the soul of our beloved dead may turn to be a spirits and move from the burials?

It is not a strange thing to know the fact that the care taker alone is staying at the burials.

Neither the care taker of the burials; and the custodian of the mortuary; nor the doctor who conducts Post mortem over the dead bodies; and the persons carrying the corpse, what shall be their feelings while discharging their duties?

How could they do their job without fear or favour?

It is a fact that while they are attending to their legitimate duty, they don’t have any belief about life after death, and also about the existence of soul after death?

If at any stage, they believe or feel that there is really life after death; can they attend to their professions?

If there is truly rebirth after death, everybody wants to be reborn as Mahatmas rather than devils.Then there will be race for doing good things, rather than doing evil things, for attaining noble birth at least in the next life after death.

And if really the soul of the dead is in existence, will it allow it’s next of the bereaved to commit sins?

Will it not save them from earthly bondages?

Now the unanswered universal queries are:-

What happens after death?

Whether there is rebirth or not? Whether the soul is in existence or not?

Though these questions appear to be abstracts, so also the answers could be.

Now, it is the turn of the common man to think and decide by himself, as he is only the better judge than anybody else.

There are certainly some answers for the quarries in this materialistic world. And they are very simple.

The ultimate essence of life and death is whenever there is birth for all living beings death is also inevitable part of life. As the sun rises and sets the seasons may come and go; beautiful flowers become withered and brown, some yield fruits, out of which some ripen, and after sometime they produce seeds later the cycle will continue and the tree will succumb to either nature’s wrath; so also people and other beings are born, live for some time and finally die after continuing their span of life.

And since the birth of the cultures and civilizations, there is no house where no one had ever died.

But, some people believe that there is life after death; there is rebirth and finally there is soul in existence.

But can we answer the universal quarries.

1) If a brain dead person’s organs are donated and transformed to five persons, who are on death bed and all the five are survived. And shall we pray him as Lord Brahama, the creator of all living beings, as the former blessed the five with rebirth, who are ailing on the death bed.

2) Alternatively let the brain dead be treated and let his brain may be re-transplant by the brain of one of the five struggling for life and the former is saved and all the five die due to the fact that the brain dead did not donate his organs as he is survived. Then shall we curse the brain dead person as if he is the incarnation of Lord Yama (God of Death in Hindu mythology)?

3) Suppose the spermatozoa of the brain dead person is extracted before his death; and later injected to a woman’s womb for fertility and the latter conceives and begets a male child. Then can we call the boy, the son of the brain dead? Or the brain dead is reborn to her? Or is it the creation of science? Or is it God’s creation?

These are all only abstract questions. But in reality the lungs carry air, blood carries water, the body contains vitamins, minerals and metals, which all come from cereals, vegetables, fruits, meat, fish, chicken, eggs, and dairy products. And the temperature in the body is nothing but fire. And all the matter above ultimately comes from the cosmic energy, which is nothing but the panchaboothas.

And the DNA/gene is the bloodline of the one’s own dynasty. There is no rebirth of DNA of course, but there is reproduction only through physical or scientific conjugation of man and woman, made through artificial fertility and delivery through surrogacy. There are certain creatures in the universe, which die after giving birth to their off spring. Then can we say that it is reborn or reproduced?

It is difficult to answer. So far there is transformation of all human organs from one person to another person, except the soul, because it is invisible.

There can’t be the existence of soul as per the Charvakas and Buddhist monk and King Gautama Siddhartha. But, still there are some people believe in the existence of the soul.

For them, the science can give probable answer; the DNA/ gene are imperishable as long as the universe and all the living beings are in existence. Hence the DNA/ gene are the soul of the lineage of the family or the blood line of the dynasty.

And there are also theories and beliefs that the panchaboothas are responsible for the creation of all living beings on the earth. Hence they can be called as Nature Gods with different names like Pruthivi (Earth) and Akasa (Sky) Vayu (Air) Agni (Fire), and Varun (Rain).
