Unfulfilled desires are the cause for our birth again and again

It is feelings that are the cause for bondage. Feelings are the cause for birth. Our unfulfilled aspirations, desires and attachments continue in the next birth. There is a Tamil saying, ‘We are born to settle unfinished accounts’. Taking birth after birth, we wallow in the ocean of worldly life. Our thoughts and feelings become the deep impressions that decide our next birth.
