I would say enjoy these last few years where things still make a modicum of sense, because that is all gonna change.

A man traveling across a field encountered a tiger. He fled, the tiger after him. Coming to a precipice, he caught hold of the root of a wild vine and swung himself down over the edge. The tiger sniffed at him from above. Trembling, the man looked down to where, far below, another tiger was waiting to eat him. Only the vine sustained him. Two mice, one white and one black, little by little started to gnaw away at the vine. The man saw a luscious strawberry near him. Grasping the vine with one hand, he plucked the strawberry with the other. How sweet it tasted!

taste a lot of strawberries while you can.

There is a soul. Its just not this god given eternal thing. You have a soul like you have fingers, and its not more you than your finger is you.

Also walking in the mountains and following breath is just another desire, so is seeking enlightenment. Figure that shit out.

The torturous flow of life, swells on the shores and rocky cliffs of misfortune
A storm of indecision and hurt with no salvation, no container to contain it
A weed of impermanence in the flowing wind of time, a seed of self with no fertile ground to materialise
How beautiful a thing to behold, in a moment captured
By a photograph or stencil painting, an eternity to behold.

My personal belief is that previous lives are genuine, but that its rather inherited genetically rather that through some spiritual migration. So you have the memories of your ancestors imprinted in your own conciousness, same way an eskimo has a inherent fear of snakes, its imprinted epigenetically.

But the way i understand Buddhist belief, its some kind of being, a benevolent parasite if you want, that we require to live and be conciouss, this subtle mind. It inot us like the CD rom with windows on it is your computer, but it makes part of you.

>and how it can have the same consciousness as you even if you have no memories of it.

It doesnt, and you do. I think.

Buddhist monks, atleast vajrayana monks speak of mystical experiences through meditations in which they relive previous lives, but that is not to say it is really a full concioussness that migrates. Rather some kinda CD ROM with lots of imprinted info, with a will of its own that gathers data from the many disc drives it enters, or a chad cock that keeps female ejaculate from the many vaginas it enters.

This is where i got most of my info from, but from there i read some wiki sites and talked to someone who knows alot about this...

I mean, i think you could define Buddhism itself as the belief in no-self, so pretty much all of Buddhism...

I think it makes sense, think of an atheist who believes in reincarnation, and you pretty much get it. Its secularised reincarnation almost, not saying Buddhism is secular but it does not accept any transcendence.

I do not know enough Hinduism nor Buddhism, but i know a little about their idea of an afterlife.

The Hindus believe in "transmigration" when you die from what i gather your soul which is separate from karma (cause and effect and all that is material) gets judged by Krishna or whatever you call God based on your karma.

Whereas the Buddhists believe in "metempsychosis" since they believe in no soul or underlying self, the thing that reincarnates is not more you than your finger is you, also the thing that reincarnates (sometimes called the subtle self) is not separate from karma but just another more mystical expression of it. This subtle self decides to reincarnate because it feels it has unattended business on earth.

Thank God for the protestand reformation for if these pedophiles got ahold of the second coming of Christ they would probably have crucified him again, but romans do what romans does i guess.

I guess its both, but for why i am afraid of non-being its just the idea of it makes me uncomfortable. Like all there ever was, was my life, everything i know and everything ive experienced, the planet itself has happened through my eyes. And then im going away forever... I dunno i struggle with it.

I am pretty afraid to die, ive tried to be a good stoic or to surpress it with buddhist presence. But i am deeply scared of falling into the long abyss. And i am also afraid that we live in a society that doesnt value human life enough, or that we take it for granted. I think if people really thought about the implications of how limited our time on this earth is we would be more compassionate.
