Question
Would you rather live forever or be reencarnated into multiple human lives.?
Id rather be reencarnated just because i could live a childhood over and over.
Answer
The traditional Buddhist concept of rebirth can be described as a voice echoing in a canyon. The original voice is representative of the last moment of one life and the sound of the echo is the first moment of the next life. While the echo sounds the same as the voice, they are actually two separate sounds, which is meant to illustrate that our present actions only influence our future lives, they are not directly related and we dont bring consciousness and awareness from one life to the next. brbrImmortality would give you and eternity to follow the Four Nobel Truths, seek an end to the inherent suffering of life and ultimately find enlightenment.brbrTherefore I would take immortality because you would always be building, learning and growing. Whereas with reincarnation you would not have the knowledge of past lives and each childhood would be an isolated experience.
