      I doubt Joseph Smith was that learned. He probably just made it up because it helps people to accept their lot in life.

      Wait! Doesn’t Hinduism say that poor conditions in this life are due to bad karma from the last? That’s kind of the reverse of what the Mormons teach.

        It’s both. What life you’ll live after reincarnation depends on your karma.
