Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: Good question and the answer is we are coming from the spiritual world or vaikuntha dhama or Kingdom of Lord Vishnu or Lord Krishna. After we fall from the spiritual world we enter the material world and the first position we get is Lord Brahma or the master creator who created this material world then Indra or Lord of heavenly planets,then moon god until we come to a cows body & then next birth is a human body & according to our activities in this life time we again go into different 8.4 millions species of life out of which there are 400,000 is just different types of humans species with different kind of intelligence & physical abilities.
But its not necessary we will get human life we can also go into an animal birth like for example someone likes to eat flesh will get tigers body in next life so that he can enjoy eating flesh for whole life,someone likes to be in water all the time will get fish body so according to ones desire & activities one gets a suitable body to fulfill those desires in next body.

Whatever state of being one remembers when he quits his body, O son of Kunti, that state he will attain without fail.

The process of changing one??s nature at the critical moment of death is here explained. A person who at the end of his life quits his body thinking of Krsna attains the transcendental nature of the Supreme Lord, but it is not true that a person who thinks of something other than Krsna attains the same transcendental state. This is a point we should note very carefully. How can one die in the proper state of mind? Mah㤲㤪a Bharata, although a great personality, thought of a deer at the end of his life, and so in his next life he was transferred into the body of a deer. Although as a deer he remembered his past activities, he had to accept that animal body. Of course, one??s thoughts during the course of one??s life accumulate to influence one??s thoughts at the moment of death, so this life creates one??s next life. If in one??s present life one lives in the mode of goodness and always thinks of Krsna, it is possible for one to remember Krsna at the end of one??s life. That will help one be transferred to the transcendental nature of Krsna. If one is transcendentally absorbed in Krsna's service, then his next body will be transcendental (spiritual), not material. Therefore the chanting of Hare Krsna, Hare Krsna, Krsna Krsna, Hare Hare/ Hare R㤭a, Hare R㤭a, R㤭a R㤭a, Hare Hare is the best process for successfully changing one??s state of being at the end of one??s life.
