Vedas 47 - Kathopanishad Part 5 B - Your Karma Determines Your Future

Yama pronounces: "Dear Nachiketaa, Your power of grasping The esoteric knowledge is Truly amazing! Let me, now, tell you, O dear boy, What happens to a man when he dies. Listen O Gautama! " "The way you think, behave and act, Now, determines your future. Your ‘karma' or action in each life, Decides your destiny. You are the performer, You are accountable for your deeds. What you sow, so will you reap. Every action of yours, will have a reaction." "When the body dies, The soul leaves the body, But is existent in a formless state. The individual soul can remain without a body, Or may enter a new body, Or even enter into immovable or inert forms, All depends on your good ‘karma' or bad ‘karma'. ‘Atman' or the soul never dies! " "Know this Nachiketaa! It is ‘Brahman' That injects the ‘Prana' or The vital breath into a new body. The ‘Brahman' knows to blow it out too. The body is just a dwelling place for the soul, A rented room or a temporary residence on earth! The soul is ever busy globetrotting with transmigration".
