Why mull on death (of form), a future event or speculate about karma, a past event, when the entirety of existence lies in the here & now within, in the continuum of timeless time?
Yet, if we must speculate, one theory, one religion, one belief system, contradicts another, so what is it that we know as direct wisdom cognised directly? And assuming we do know (which we don’t), on what basis will another who has not ‘seen’ believe?
The past is history, the future a mystery, so let us live in the present... with our presence imbibing the divine essence.
And about facing death fearlessly ... the soldier does, as also the monk ...why? Because both live for a higher cause ... that cause, which extinguishes fear ... of death (of form).
