Garuda Purana, Lord Vishnu Niti: Death is an unchanging truth. The death of every living being born in the world is certain. It has also been said in the scriptures that one who has taken birth in this world will have to leave this world one day or the other.
It has been said about death in the Gita that no one can destroy the soul. The soul is ajar and immortal. Neither fire can burn it, nor water can wet it, nor wind can dry it.
Now the question arises that what happens to the soul of the deceased after death. You will find the exact answer to this question in Garuda Purana, a scripture related to the Vaishnava sect and one of the 18 Mahapuranas. There are 16 chapters in 271 chapters of Garuda Purana, which are based on death, Yamlok’s journey after death, heaven and hell etc.
In Garuda Purana, Lord Vishnu has explained in detail about the birth and death of his vehicle Pakshiraj Garuda. According to this, after death the soul will have to suffer in hell or will attain heaven, it is based on the deeds done by the person in life.
The account of sin and virtue happens after death
It has been said in Garuda Purana that after death the soul has to pass through various paths, where the accounts of its sins and virtues are done. Only after this the soul decides the journey ahead. It is also mentioned in this that shortly before death the voice of a person stops, all the senses of the body stop working and the person receives divine vision from the divine at the last moment of life. Only after this the soul leaves the body. Then two Yamdoots of Yamraj come and take the soul to Yamlok. Yamdoots on the way behave with the soul in the same way as the soul would have treated others in its life.
The soul passes through three routes after death
It has also been told in the Garuda Purana that after death the soul has to pass through three paths. In this, the first is Archi Marg, the second is Dhoom Marg and the third is Genesis Vinash Marg. In this, the first route is for Dev Lok and Brahma Lok, which is the highest. After death in this, such people go who have done only good deeds in their life and stayed away from sins. The journey of Dhoom Marg is called the journey of Pitrlok. On the other hand, the origin of the third path is a very destructive path. This is a journey to hell and in this the soul has to face a lot of pain.
