I heard that souls( atma) never born, never died. Its target is unity with paramatma and atma accomplished this through different births. My question: Since total population is increasing then from where the extra souls are coming? Actually number of souls should decresing as some souls attain the unity. Then we arrive at a contradiction... If the 1st line of my question is false then tell me the truth about souls.

  • if you only look at the earth and only humans, then yeah population is increasing.. but there are fewer animals now, so where did those animal souls go ? and there are so many planets and lokas in the universe, did you look at population in those too ? maybe it is decreasing :).. actually no, it is neither increasing nor decreasing.
