QnA with Sri Sri

 Q: Different people have different theories of what happens after death. Will we remember what we did in this life after death? If not, what is the point of doing anything? 

Sri Sri Ravi Shankar: Tell me, what breakfast did you have on May 29, 2014? You don’t remember? (Mischievously) So what is the point of having breakfast then? (Huge laughter from the crowd)
 See, in life, we do many things. We don’t have to remember everything. We brush our teeth and use toothpaste every day, don't we? What toothpaste did you use five years back on Apr 30? We don’t need to remember everything we do, but certain things, definitely.

 Well, this is going into the mystic world and touching on the subtler truth about our world. This is not the occasion for going into that.

 When we leave this body, two questions come in front of us – how much knowledge have we gained and how much love have we given? And in one minute’s time, your whole life will pass through in front of you like a movie and everything that you did will come to you – not with regrets but with your learning from them. You will only carry the lesson.
