We are primarily born because we
have unfulfilled desires from our past life. We attempted to know the Truth but
we did not finish the job. We still have
passions, greed, lust, and desire for name and fame. So as long as a person has desires and he wishes to have something in
return, there is a need to have a body to do or perform these desires.
It is the greatness of God that he gives us the
instruments -- the body, mind and intellect
-- to fulfill our desires. If we don't have
desires, we will not need the body and we will not need birth either. When all these desires come to an end, the
cycle of birth and death also come to an end.
