Ideas and questions mentioned in the lesson and their relevance today

- Our actions (‘Karma’) affect us in our current life as well as the next life.
- We should not hurt or kill any living being, according to Mahavira. This is important because every living being has a desire to live.
- Thinkers wanted to know about life after death and they wanted to know why sacrifices should be performed. Sacrifices are not justified since living beings should be killed.
- Upanishadic thinkers also felt that something was permanent in the universe and it lasted even after death.
