I dont think it is. Anyway, im thinking that by the lack of reincarnation the experience of life takes a 180º turn to another direction that barely noone have grasped but, it´s related about how real life it´s perceived.

If you are aware you will reincarnate, you are just thinking about it asleep in your dreaming, and phoney promises about wonderful future lives.

If you are aware that you don´t know if you do, you are much more alert. You ask yourself questions, wich is the turning point needed.

If you are aware for sure, even without proof, if you accept the evidence that you don´t reincarnate because you don´t have proof, and that this one is the only one life that you will have the opportunity to experiment, the intensity of the life you can experiment rises up exponentially, your capacity to feel the cosmos around you will be unmatched by those waiting for another opportunity in another life. You will see things, that the reincarnators, problably will never see, no matter how many billions of years they end up living in different bodies. You will probably, understand somehow, the entire history of your species as you understand your own.



I encourage the importance of death here, and it´s truly significance: humility, and realism. Death ahead of us is the opportunity to be everything that we can imagine.

Without that humility death is asking us to recognize, we cannot perceive how bigger than everything we have thought, is the universe around us, how bigger than everything we have thought, is our own body, and our own potential; how infinitely smarter than you is your own body, how ridiculous you are, why it is as it is, it´s own history and development through zillions of years,... all that, etc. It´s the way to face true astonishment without entheogenic drugs or similar.

If you ask to be asleep on that, forever, reincarnating, do it. That´s what i wanna emphasize: it´s not the answer.
