I know no answer to the question of whether the karma which I live is the outcome of my past lives, or whether it is not rather the achievement of my ancestors, whose heritage comes together in me. Am I a combination of the lives of these ancestors and do I embody these lives again? have I lived before in the past as a specific personality, and I progress so far in that life that I am now able to seek a solution? idk
