________________ gati, as it is called, for which it has devoloped a strong affinity and where, on that account, it may find a more favourable soil for fuller expressions of the energies and forces of its own making during the course of the previous term of the physical life. It may happen to be located for some time in the regions of hell () or go to some other world. It may travel among the brutes and beasts ( तिय क योनि) or may become a god or a demon in the world of gods and demons (देवासुर लोक ). It may also by the virtue of its own karma under which it willingly laboured, run to Heaven, the region of the gods, there to enjoy the sweetest pleasures of life which he so much hankered after or be born again to such parents in the human world (मनुषा लक) as is consistent with its prior deeds and desires, either to waddle in wealth and prosperity, or to starve to death in poverty, or to strive after bliss and beatitude, forsaking all the pleasures of wordly life and living. So we see that the 'Character' of Prof. Huxley is somewhat the same with the karmasarira in the Jain philosophy, The Hindu 319 Gatis or the different grades of Sansår.
