Conscious in the sky at the right hand of God. The earliest Christian liturgies were called Laudes.The earliest Buddhist liturgy was called Sapta BuddhaStotra (the Praise of the Seven Buddhas).

It was taughtthat the Karma, or causation of good or evil actions, ushereda man into a new birth as a parrot or a princess, a jackdawor a banker, according to its quality.
