So there will be no rest for me. As soon as I die, I will be reborn, and this will happen billions, trillions, if not an infinite number of times. No matter how holy a life I lead, no matter how much I desire to exit the game, the higher will of Brahman must be unfolded.
This in fact could occur ( yet I do not speak from direct experience) , but it is not the design of the 'system'.
If a holy life is achieved, then one does not return. So what is this holiness? It is wholeness, bhūma¹, fullness of Being. When this is lived, experienced, then one does not return , so say the Upaniṣads¹.
