We discuss the different types and ideas of Karma. (from beginning to 5 min mark)
Defense of the Rationality of Reincarnation, we discuss the rationality of believing in Reincarnation through logic and even scientific studies. We throw into the mix Samkhya, Panpsychism, the hard problem of consciousness, Jainism, and Sri Aurobindo’s ideas. (from 5 min mark to the end)
