Go within to find if you are mortal or immortal?

Q: We know that the soul is immortal .It has no birth and death. Then who is reborn?

A: Well that is a good question. Who is reborn, if the atman is immortal, then who is born? Ask this question to yourself, either the soul is not immortal and that is why it is taking birth. Then it would prove that the soul is not immortal. This means that the Vedas is are telling a lie, this means that what I speak is a lie or you have not understood really and you are just repeating the things like a parrot.

How does it make a difference if the Gita and the Upanishads are saying that the soul is immortal? The question is, Shankar - have you the experience that the soul is immortal or not? It ends up all on you, if you have not experienced this, then just parroting these great words will not help you a bit. So go deep within your own self, explore your own self and come to the conclusion by your experience & know it for yourself, whether it is mortal or immortal.

For that you first have to know your body, then you will have to know your mind, then you will come to know the intellect & finally then you will move to the real self. But before the real self, there is a false self which you today think is your real self. So after peeling off all these layers, then you may come to the conclusion.

I am not going to give any conclusive answer to this question, because this is just a speculation and with speculations, you will not reach anywhere. You need real-time experience & for that, Shankar, you will have to go within.
