These internal nature of people (Dhathu swabhava) can be understood only by a Sammasambuddha... There's no point thinking that.. we cannot understand it fully..See Followers have to belive in some things with Shraddha (some of them would be understood only at arhathhood; some of them won't be understood even at that point)...Fortunately most important things to know can be realized ourselves... They are the Four Noble Truths... We should be careful not to spent the valuable time too much on investigating the "unthikables"...  Still we can examine your question against Dhamma...Borukaraya is a person still prone to telling lies... He/she is not an Shruthawath Arya Shrawaka... such a person is call Ashruthawath Pruthajjana...A Pruthajjana is prone to any sin... Only a pruthajjana can do the "Ananthariya Papa Karma"... Only a Pruthajjana can firmly go to a "Mithya drushti"...Suppose you are a Pruthajjana; and lead a moral life (of course it's possible; a person need not be a Buddhist to lead a correct life)... You'll be born after death - again as a Pruthajjana. However there's no guarantee that you'll behave morally this time... because values you have are lost at death... That's why a Pruthajjana is prone to sins...An arya shrawaka is a person in the Path; he has Shraddha, Viriya, Sathi, Samadhi, Panna as Indriya (organs)... which are not lost at death... Because of that a person in the Path can continue it even after death (of course: if he/she has not attained Nibbana by the time of death)...Hope this addresses your problem... What we can do is start examining Paticchasamuppada... not dwelling too much on these not-really-important-to-know-things...Theruwan saranai!</blockquote>
