This is the ignorance which the Overself imposes upon the human in the flesh. It would be most unsatisfactory if all humans, irrespective of their progress, could remember all their past lives.
Those who had been princes would be dissatisfied if they remembered their princely reign when they came back as an impoverished peasant, and the one who had been a peasant would feel a sense of inferiority possibly when reincarnating as a prince.
Thus, it is that before a human soul incarnates he or she Drinks of the Waters of Forgetfulness before awakening to consciousness in the body of a baby.
It is a wise provision that those who are incarnating normally forget (while in the flesh) what they have been in the past, although such knowledge is available to them when they get to the astral world by way of astral travel, and so can consult the Akashic Record.
Sometimes Upadhi is given an s and becomes Upadhis, and in that case it refers to the whole man upon the Earth and out of the body. It refers to his three bodies his three basic bodies which are :
1. The causal body.
2. The subtle body.
3. The gross body.
MAY THE SPIRIT GUIDE US ALL.
