"Looking back with my inner knowledge, I cannot see even one moment in which this Soul has not been wandering in the cycle of birth and death, or in which the mind has been calm, and so the Soul has forgotten inner peace.
This memory is constantly with me and it is thus a cause for great detachment.
What more can I say?
Recalling the past lives in which I wandered in folly, how should I live now ?
That is what I think about.
That I do not want to be born again at all is now firmly established in my heart.
When a thoughtful Soul thinks of moments of anxiety, illness or of problems, when it thinks of worldly life, then the Soul's false identification with transient objects naturally declines.
Possessiveness and delusion become weaker, and the inclination arises to seek out the ageless, immortal and eternal substance which is the Soul.
Whosoever has recalled the many lives of stress, illness and the pain of death and rebirth, and has in the past life heard the causes of the Soul's wandering directly from a self-realised person, is keen to be free from all these traps and to follow only the right path which leads to Moksha."
