What about the Christian explanation that the human soul is created at the time of conception, or at least sometime between conception and birth? So, there is no existence before birth, no higher self, no being one with consciousness, no past lives. I'm not saying I believe that, but it's a perfectly valid concept. But, yes, I agree - suffering is a mystery. Karma attempts to explain it, but why should anyone suffer in this life on account of something they have no memory of from a previous life? How can a lesson be possibly learnt from that? It would probably make them go from bad to worse!
