All suffering beings are caught in a vortex of deep confusion regarding their true identity and will arise in one perceptual realm or another. This will be dependent on how similar they are in their confusion to others in that place and will experience a shared world, even though personal points of view can be very different from each other. This is how the separation of the six samsaric realms exist; living beings arising in varieties of misunderstandings regarding how they actually exist, will enter into generalized causes and effects that will continue to hold them to a particular realm, such as the human realm.

There are other realms and other forms that you have existed in before this life and completed the work and necessary transformat...
