No brother, people who claim they r reincarnation of someone in the past arent lying but the question is does that person really existed in the real world? The reincarnation stories are always about an extremely common person who can not be traced back and is never a high ranked government official who’s records can be found somewhere in history.
For e.g. if Ghalib is reincarnated we can identify quite easily if he is really the same person or not. But if its Ghalib’s servant’s daughter’s bhabi’s brother is reincarnated then there’s no way we can identify
We think that we perceive reality around us but our brain also create reality around us. If u get hurt, u will feel a lot of pain but after sometime pain is better, that is your brain creating an alternate reality where the wound is less painful. This is a very simple example that we’ve all experienced.
Hinduism reincarnation is for retribution of sins but no one remembers their past life so it defeats the purpose, if i am suffering due to past sins then i would like to know which sin it was so i can avoid it. It may be i am thinking i am suffering because i murdered someone and in reality i was a back bitter and i am still doing it in this lifetime! so what do u think will happpen to in next life? and what do u think such God will be like? it can not be a merciful and just God
coming back to if people r lying, they r not. It looks like their brains have created alternate realities for them for whatever reasons. It is quite common, people claim certain jobs r easy for them because they’ve mastered it in last life.
