Death of thoughts.

[Dao Hao Now]

Technically that's true. Only one life spent as this particular individual.

Life itself, like death itself however, is definitely another story.

Judging by the OP, the subject is concerning the singular life of an individual, is it not?

That is bound to happen in a few decades at most.

But honestly I am not sure I understand what you are asking here. Surely you understand that we all will indeed die.

Yes the time will come for each of us.

I believe that on an average people die bodily within 60 - 100 years and after that their thoughts get new body transfer. But, once all thoughts die, nobody remains thereafter to possess any new body.

You can respond after your meditation, my friend.

Certainly. But in that, thoughts needn't die. They just need be tranquilized for a time. Subsequently, they can arise with dispassion and without attachment.

Been trying to kill those off for awhile, but they sure put up a good fight.

Only God can help, my friend

Wait for your bodily departure.
Blessed are you, my friend.

Eh... Anyone who cares about the truth has to ask questions

Ask thyself

 

[chinu]

This is an excellent question for anyone who is truly convinced of an “afterlife”; particularly one where a “paradise” awaits them.

For the rationally minded, it tends to be (beyond the natural will to survive) the fact that as best as can be determined, this is the one and only life we have to experience, so why not try to make the best of it for as long as we can?

Who is experiencing ? What if you wouldn’t have existed at all ?

 

[Dao Hao Now]

Who is experiencing ?

The collective “you” referred to in your OP.

What if you wouldn’t have existed at all ?

Then this conversation wouldn’t be happening.

If with all the sufferings and blah blah blah you don't like to live in this world/creation that you see all around you,
Then why don't you DIE and release yourself from all this blah blah blah and rest in peace ?

By DIE I don't mean the death of body.
By DIE I mean the death of thoughts

Eh? What's thought?
