Jennifer Fox directed the documentary My Reincarnation in 2011. It’s a story about a father and his son that spans two decades and three generations. Spirituality, cultural survival, identity, heritage, family, maturation, aging, Buddhism, and previous and future lives are all discussed in the film.
The film follows Namkhai Norbu, a Tibetan spiritual teacher who is fighting to save his spiritual tradition, and his son, Khyentse Yeshi Namkhai (Yeshi), who refuses to continue in his father’s path.
Yeshi was identified as the reincarnation of his father’s uncle, a spiritual teacher executed by the Chinese in Tibet, from the moment he was born. Despite his desire for a regular existence, Yeshi is unable to escape his predicament.

Which house is dedicated to former lives?
If a birth chart reveals our former lives’ deeds, may it also reveal information about life beyond death? And, if these two points are false, what value is there in the “free will” that people talk about? We spoke with Dr. Vinay Bajrangi, a leading Indian Vedic astrologer who has been revealing many Vedic astrological marvels to help educate the general public about the astrological postulates propagated by the Saptrishis and is also actively engaged in removing the donnish and conservative veil from astrology. He is a renowned birth time rectifier and a Karma corrector who has mastered the art of previous life reading. He has a one-of-a-kind talent to read horoscopes and predict the future. We were looking for answers about the horoscopes of the deceased in this release.
Dr. Vinay Bajrangi (Vinay Bajrangi): Yes! Your birth chart, as an imprint of your former lives, also predicts your future lives. Since the beginning, I’ve been presenting astrology’s theology. The arrangement of planets in one’s horoscope is not arbitrary, but has been methodically apportioned by the Almighty after careful examination of the deeds done by him/her in previous births (s). Now, the planets assigned to you may have some excellent Yogas (combinations) and some unfavorable Yogas (combinations). The good pairings are the blessings of previous births, while the unfavorable combinations are the curses of prior births. The native is thrown into a roller coaster of good and bad experiences as a result of these excellent and negative combinations.
However, one has some degree of free will, which is determined by Jupiter’s position in the horoscope.
One can influence the outcomes to some extent by exercising free will. The cycle continues, and however you utilize this free tool, the birth chart of your future birth will be determined. As a result, everyone’s major battle is to effectively employ free will to change bad karma into good karma. One can make the most of one’s free will by using competent astrological reading and guidance.
DVB: The foundations of any horoscope are planets, planet placements in specific signs, and specific Nakshatras. We get the Panchangna, the Dashas (periods), the Shodashvargas (finer charts), and the Asthakvarga from these placements. Every one hundred and twenty years, the Dashas are reported to revolve. A detailed and accurate reading of a person’s birth chart can disclose information about their entire past, present, and future lives.
DVB: The ninth house of the horoscope evaluates the native’s previous life, while the fifth house deciphers the native’s future existence. The pending karma that one has left undone or unfinished in a previous life is represented by the sixth house. The Dasha balance in which a person is born denotes the Dasha in which the soul departed the body in a former life.
The Lagna is the link between previous and current births, as well as an indicator of the birth’s purpose. The twelfth house represents the number of lives left until the native’s soul receives eternal salvation.
So, an accomplished astrologer can sketch the previous birth, the purpose of this birth, the pending karma left in the previous birth, the main obstacles of this birth, the Dasha when his/her soul left the body in the previous birth, the Dasha when his/her soul can leave the body in the present birth, and the journey of the soul in the birth(s) to come using the above indicators gathered from a horoscope. With this knowledge, the aim of the soul’s journey can be surmised, along with an indication of the time of its salvation, i.e., obtaining a permanent position in Vishnu’s abode, Baikuntha.
Question: What happens to a person’s birth chart after they pass away? Should a deceased person’s horoscope be read?
DVB: See, the spirit never dies; it is on a journey, changing bodies after bodies. Similarly, the horoscope lives until the soul’s final salvation. However, because we associate a horoscope with a living body, reading the soul’s path through the horoscope of a deceased person may not be reasonable. As a result, the horoscope of a deceased person is not visible.
However, some Doshas run in families and have a negative impact on all family members. It is sometimes important to read the horoscopes of the elderly who have passed away in order to comprehend and recommend a powerful restorative measure. However, in such instances, the astrologer should adhere to Vedic Astrology’s highest ethical standards and avoid scaring or playing with the emotions of the family members left behind.
DVB: Without a doubt, absolutely! Take, for example, Lord Rama’s family. Lord Rama was the sixty-fourth generation in the family lineage and was an incarnation of Lord Vishnu. Iksvaku, Manu’s son, was Lord Ram’s sixtieth great grandfather. To assist Lord Rama’s birth in the family lineage, he was to take seven births in the same family.
This is demonstrated by drawing Iksvaku’s horoscope and calculating his births (soul’s journey) till its final salvation.
Is it possible to count all of a soul’s births till its final salvation?
DVB: Sure, why not? But, please understand that astrology for the afterlife is not the same as conventional astrological predictions and analyses. It’s also a task that won’t be completed in a single day or two. Even a great astrologer may need weeks or months to come up with a solution. The amount of time it takes is determined by the number of births the soul will experience before reaching its final resting place. The greater the number of births, the more time an astrologer must devote to determining the quality and purpose of each future existence.
Drawing the soul’s path to its final resting place in ‘Baikuntha’ explains the efforts it made along the way and the achievements it accomplished in the upliftment of humans and other races.
Question: If fate is predetermined, how can free will influence the outcome?
DVB: One is born with pending karmas, or the karma that one must complete within this lifetime. The fate is ruled by the ninth house. Saturn’s transit determines fate, but Jupiter’s transit determines free will. If the transiting Jupiter is in trines to the natal Saturn, we can use our free will to our advantage, i.e., we can get our wish.
We must accept what fate wants from us if transiting Saturn is in trine to natal Jupiter. Normally, Saturn’s happenings are predetermined, but Jupiter’s events are the consequence of his own actions. The amount of free will accessible in the horoscope can be determined by Jupiter’s position in the horoscope, and the ease with which it can be used to control fate can be determined by its link with Saturn’s natal position.
If Jupiter and Saturn are in the 6/8 (Shadakshaka) position in a horoscope, it will be difficult to exercise free will, even when Jupiter is transiting through Saturn’s natal position. As a result, making good use of your Jupiter can help you shape fate to your benefit to a significant extent. As a result, everything is determined by the planets’ natal positions in a horoscope. The more difficult the placement of planets in horoscopes, the more births are required to achieve the moment of freedom for the soul.
Question: Can astrology assist us improve our future lives in addition to what is written in our horoscope?
DVB: In a horoscope, several obstructers work together to delay any results. The lord of the eleventh house is the principal obstructor for the moving sign, the lord of the ninth house for the fixed sign, and the lord of the seventh house for the dual sign. In any horoscope, appeasing this obstructor can be the most effective corrective method for enhancing free-will use. The corrective procedures are more than just Pujas, donations, or mantra recitation; they are a powerful infusion of karmic correction. Controlling the negative character created in oneself as a result of that obstructer planet is the goal of this karma rectification.
It may be difficult to recognize the negative character that one has as a result of that obstructer planet, but once it is recognized, suitable care can be made to correct it.
How can I tell whether I’ve had a previous life?
A sense of familiarity, liking, or longing for a place you’ve never been or with which you have no relationship can be an indication it’s from a previous life. If you enjoy reading about a specific period in history or wish you could travel back in time to live at that age, you could be referring to your past life.
What is the average number of lives a person has?
The process of a soul travelling through multiple incarnations on Earth, each time building on what was learnt in the previous life, is referred to as past lives, or the belief in reincarnation. “Each lifespan provides us with a fresh perspective on the human experience,” Shine explains. “As our souls gather more life experience, we progress to greater levels of consciousness.
It’s difficult to come up with a single “answer” or know for sure how many past incarnations you’ve had, if any at all, as with anything under the mystical umbrella. According to Dunblazier, you could have thousands of previous lifetimes, with Life Path Numbers serving as a way to condense a large concept into something more manageable.
The 13 Lives Theory, according to Shine, “claims that our souls journey through 13 phases or lifetimes to complete one cycle of enlightenment.” ” The many roles you need to learn from at this level in your spiritual development are determined by where you are in your 13 lifetimes.
What happens at the end of the reincarnation process?
In most Hinduism sects, there is no eternal paradise or hell. The soul is reborn in the afterlife as another being in heaven, hell, or as a living person on earth, depending on one’s karma (human, animal). Gods, like those in hell, die when their karmic merit runs out, and they return to have another shot on Earth. This cycle of reincarnation continues indefinitely unless one pursues a spiritual path, learns self-knowledge, and therefore achieves moka, the ultimate freedom from the reincarnation cycles. This release is thought to be a state of ecstasy, which Hindu religions believe is related to or identical to Brahman, the eternal truth that existed before the universe was created, continues to exist, and will remain when the cosmos is destroyed.
The Upanishads, which are Hindu scriptures, are largely concerned with escape from rebirth. The Bhagavad Gita explores different paths to enlightenment. According to Harold Coward, the Upanishads present a “highly positive vision of human nature’s perfectibility,” with the objective of human endeavour in these books being a constant path to self-perfection and self-knowledge in order to terminate Sasrathe’s eternal cycle of rebirth and redeath. The goal of spiritual questing in the Upanishadic traditions is to discover one’s actual self within and to understand one’s soul, a state they believe leads to moksha, or happy freedom.
According to the Bhagavad Gita:
Childhood, adulthood, and old age all occur in an embodied being, just as they do in the physical body. He (the embodied being) also takes on a new body. The knowledgeable person is not deceived in this regard. (2:13)
After tossing out old clothes, a man replaces them with new ones. As a result, after releasing worn-out bodies, the embodied Self encounters new ones. (2:22)
When an embodied being surpasses these three attributes that are the source of the body, he achieves immortality, free of birth, death, old age, and pain. (14:20)
Within Hindu traditions, there are disagreements over rebirth and the state of moksha. For example, dualistic devotional traditions such as Madhvacharya’s Dvaita Vedanta Hinduism champion a theistic premise, asserting that the human soul and Brahman are distinct, that loving devotion to Brahman (god Vishnu in Madhvacharya’s theology) is the means to release from Samsara, that spiritual liberation is only possible after death, and that spiritual liberation is only possible after death (videhamukti). Non-dualistic Hinduism traditions such as Advaita Vedanta advocate a monistic premise, asserting that the individual human soul and Brahman are identical, that only ignorance, impulsiveness, and inertia lead to suffering through Sasra, that there are no dualities in reality, that meditation and self-knowledge is the path to liberation, that realizing that one’s soul is identical to Brahman is moksha, and that spiritual liberation is (jivanmukti).

In astrology, how do I find my pending karma?
People frequently inquire about their Pending Karma with us. Because we are reborn, we have pending Karma for all of the planets in our horoscope.
Prarabdha Karma: Prarabdha is the portion of one’s previous Karma that is responsible for one’s current birth. As a result, it is a component of the Sanchit that must be exhausted in this incarnation. To put it another way, the good or terrible deeds of a previous incarnation are to be redeemed for the good or bad deeds of this lifetime.
Agami: Agami is the present-day karma that leads to the formation of tomorrow’s Prarabdha. As a result, what we sow now will reap tomorrow.
Pending Karma, also known as Prarabdha, can be seen in a variety of ways. It can be viewed through Rashis or Signs, as well as through the Nakshatras. To determine the pending Karma, we must first examine the 6th House and the location of that planet in the 6th House, the 6th Lord. I also notice planets in retrograde for pending Karma.
Let’s have a look at the Nakshatras and Rasis. Rasis provide an overview of the nature of one’s pending Karma. However, once we understand the principles of the Nakshatras, we can readily understand the Pending Karma.
Moon is in the Lagna in Punarvasu Nakshatra in Lord Ram’s horoscope, for example. We already know that this Nakshatra has a lot of themes, one of which being repetition and sacrifice. Lord Ram had a recurring experience throughout his life, whether it was winning Devi Sita twice by the breaking of Lord Shiva’s bow and once through defeating Lord Shiva’s strongest follower at the timeRavana, or ascending to the kingdom. He was first taken to the forest, and it was only when he returned that he was given the crown.
He made numerous sacrifices for othershis brothers, father, countrymen, and everyone. In fact, once his lover had left, he gave up the life of a king and lived in the palace as an ascetic, performing his royal duties not as a king but as someone who was responsible for the well-being of his realm.
Now let’s talk about Rasis. As I previously stated, we must examine the 6th House, the planet put there, as well as its despositor.
Rahu is in his 6th House. Rahu represents the Rakshasas and is located in the Lagna with Jupiter as its despositor. The fact that Rahu is constantly retrograde is amusing, because Lord Rama was trained from an early age to kill the Rakshashas who tortured therishis dwelling in the forests by destroying their Yagnas and causing havoc in their lives. Ravana, who sprung from the prestigious Rishi Pulastya dynasty and was born to a Brahmin sage Vishrava and princess Kaikesi, the daughter of the Rakshasha King Sumali, was Lord Ram’s greatest and most fearsome foe. As a result, he possessed all of the intellectual skills of a Brahmin as well as the enormous might and strength of a demon. Lord Ram was affected by three highly significant Rishis who changed the direction of his life as the 6th Lord goes to the Lagna and as Jupiter. A discussion between Lord Ram and his Guru, Sage Vashishta, is one of the best treatises on mental skills and mental health. At the age of 16, Rishi Vishwamitra brought him into the jungles to fight the Rakshashas, providing him with the expertise and know-how of martial techniques and warfare that aided him greatly in his battle with Ravana.
Again, Sage Agastya taught Lord Rama and Lakshmana the “Aditya Hrudayam Stotram” for evoking Surya Deva’s blessings and removing barriers on the road, such as a troubled mind.
Lord Krishna was born in the Rohini Nakshatra, which is associated with expansion and prosperity. His Lagna is supposed to be in this Nakshatra as well. According to Vimshottari Dasha, the Nakshatra Lord also sits in this Nakshatra, hence Moon becomes extremely powerful due to its position in its own Nakshatra and association with the Lagna. In the Lagna, Ketu is also located. Moon and Ketu together give him extraordinary psychic abilities and the ability to divorce the mind from the Self. When we read or hear Lord Krishna’s discourses, we will notice that they are cryptic and have a deep depth to them that only a few people can comprehend.
Moon in the Lagna and Lord of the 3rd House in Rohini reveal that his oratory talents were sure to improve as he grew older. When he stated his viewpoint or stance on any matter, his courage was always softly communicated, and his thinking was very serene and calm. In addition, the 3rd House is associated with weapons, and Ketu is associated with loud words. Lord Krishna was never afraid to call a spade a spade, even if he did so in his own unique way and at his own pace. The 3rd Lord is also a friend, and Lord Krishna had a large circle of friends and relatives, from Mathura’s cowherds to the country’s kings. He was the one who led them all. The third house reflects one’s ingenuity, and he used his words in a highly innovative way. Lord Krishna was the Charioteer for all beings, Arjuna and the Pandavas when he was alive, and his devotees when he has departed his mortal remains and returned to his Gowloka, as a symbol of the Rohini Nakshatra.
Exalted Saturn in the 6th House with the 6th Lord indicates unselfish service to all, including the elderly, children, and the infirm. Saturn rules the 9th and 10th Houses, and its connection to the Artha Trikona means that it is his Karma to provide selfless service to all in terms of Dharma.
In Hasta Nakshatra, Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose’s Moon is in the 6th House. Moon is the Lord of the 4th House of Homeland, Masses, and Emotions, and Moon in UttaraPhalguni imparts a strong sense of discernment about what is correct and what is protocol. His Lagna again falls in the Krittika Nakshatra, and as a commander who took it upon himself to lead an army and fight for the rights and freedom of his nation, he was able to persuade the masses. In fact, many individuals donated their life savings, jewelry, and other valuables to help him free his motherland and restore her lost splendor in any way they could.
Donald Trump’s Moon is in Jyestha Nakshatra in the 4th House. Moon is the weak Lord of the 12th House, yet it has digbali, or directional strength. North is represented by the 4th House, which also represents the masses. Mercury, the Lord of the Nakshatra, is in the 11th House of Gains. The monarchy or supremacy of Jyestha Nakshatra over the populace is depicted. The Trump Organization, through its various constituent companies and partnerships, has or has had interests in real estate development, investing, brokerage, sales and marketing, and property management. The Trump Organization, through its various constituent companies and partnerships, has or has had interests in real estate development, investing, brokerage, sales and marketing, and property management. Again, the sign of an umbrella appears in this Jyestha Nakshatra, implying immunity and protection. We all know that Donald Trump has gotten away with a lot of shady business and transactions, even impeachment, with little or no repercussions.
In the 12th House of Losses, the 6th Lord Saturn is joined by the 3rd Lord Venus. It demonstrates that, despite his capacity to defeat his foes, he frequently blunders in his utterances and loses popular standing (Saturn Lord of Public Platform) as a result of his remarks.
