THE VEDAS DECLARE, "NO". I AM A SPIRIT LIVING IN A BODY. I AM NOT THE BODY. THE BODY WILL DIE, BUT I
SHALL NOT DIE. HERE AM I IN THIS BODY; IT WILL FALL, BUT I SHALL GO ON LIVING. I HAD ALSO A PAST. THE SOUL WAS NOT CREATED, FOR CREATION MEANS A COMBINATION WHICH MEANS A CERTAIN FUTURE
DISSOLUTION. IF THEN THE SOUL WAS CREATED, IT MUST DIE. SOME ARE BORN HAPPY, ENJOY PERFECT
HEALTH, WITH BEAUTIFUL BODY, MENTAL VIGOUR AND ALL WANTS SUPPLIED. OTHERS ARE BORN MISERABLE, SOME ARE WITHOUT HANDS OR FEET, OTHERS AGAIN
ARE IDIOTS AND ONLY DRAG ON A WRETCHED EXISTENCE. WHY, IF THEY ARE ALL CREATED, WHY DOES
A JUST AND MERCIFUL GOD CREATE ONE HAPPY AND ANOTHER UNHAPPY, WHY IS HE SO PARTIAL?

fortune. While in Aden, he realised a strange discrepancy that the Real-Sterling exchange rate and the intrinsic value of silver content in Aden’s coinage offered a great avenue for making
