Namaste,

Past Life (and hence re-incarnation) is also accepted in Sri Ramana Gita.

Hare Krishna

When bhagavad geeta iself accepted (jAtasya hi dhruvO mrutyuH dhruvaM janma mrutasya cha ) how can ramaNa / ramaNa geeta can deny it??  Geeta says dehinOsmin yatha dehe...tathA dehAntara prAptihi (punarapi jananaM, punarapi maraNaM) but ramaNa in the context quoted might have clarified Atman avinAshitvaM by holding the geeta verse : na jAyate mriyate vA kadAhinnAyaM bhUtvA bhavitA v Ana bhUyaH because Atman is ajaM and nityaM and shAshvataM (ajO nityaH shAshvatOyaM, na hanyate hanyamAne shareere geeta chArya clarifies) hence neither janma nor punarjanma for this Atman.

Hari Hari Hari Bol!!!
