I, you, every one of us, we have the trouble at the time of death, at the time of birth.
Birth and death. We are living entities, we are living soul. Birth and death takes place of this body. The body takes birth and the body is vanquished. Death means sleeping for seven months. That's all. That is death. The soul is . . . when this body is unfit for living, the soul gives up this body. And by superior arrangement the soul is put again into the womb of a particular type of mother, and the soul develops that particular type of body. Up to seven months the soul remains unconscious. And when the body is developed, again consciousness comes and the child wants to come out of the womb, and he moves. Every mother has experience how the child moves at the age of seven months within the womb.
So it is a great science how the soul, living soul, is in contact with this material body and how he is transmigrating from one body to another. The example is given just like vāsāṁsi jīrṇāni yathā vihāya (BG 2.22). We are . . . just like when the garments, our shirt and coat, becomes too old, we give it up and we accept another shirt and coat . . . similarly, I, you, every one of us, we are spirit soul. We, we are given a type of body or shirt and coat by the arrangement of material nature. Prakṛteḥ kriyamāṇāni guṇaiḥ karmāṇi sarvaśaḥ (BG 3.27). That particular body is given to us for our particular type of standard of living.
Just like you European, American, Australians, you have got a particular type, and you are given the opportunity, a particular standard of living. Just if some Indian comes to your European, American, Australian cities, just like your Melbourne city . . . I was just speaking to my students, "If any Indian comes, so they will be surprised with this standard of living.
