Today's Daily Dharma: Rethinking Rebirth

Rethinking Rebirth

Rebirth as a myth or metaphor, which is part of a larger architecture of the mind, asks us to resist the pressure to believe that the future will deliver or redeem us. It reminds us that we are bound to everyone, and that by helping others we discover an unacknowledged, undervalued part of ourselves.

- Kurt Spellmeyer, "After the Future"
