Q. If there is life after death, then there must have been a life before birth. Why do we not remember our past lives?

A. Do you happen to remember your birth? Can you deny the fact that you were born because you don’t remember it? You should know that the true-Self remembers everything regardless of whether you remember it or not, just as your mother remembers the situation in which you were in her womb and that of your birth although you don’t remember them.

The true-Self remembers all and acts according to its memory, which is referred to as karma.
