If we can accept this, we can accept anything. Peace, Brian Accepting impermanence is one of the hardest things to do and accepting our own mortality (and the mortality of loved ones) is the ultimate in accepting impermanence. If we can accept this, we can accept anything.

Peace,

Eventually though we let go of that idea as we learn to see differently. When I'm speaking of these matters I'm speaking to people who are in the stage of understanding where they still believe they are separate and they are still identifying with old ways of seeing things. (Self-Identifying) What I believe is far different from that and this will surface in future podcasts. Thanks so much for your comments: I do hope that you stick around to see the outcome of this series; your comments are greatly appreciated and help shape the outcome.

I just don't see any reason to ask these questions because I do not feel they make any difference to me. Interesting to see it from your point of view though :) I guess that’s just the difference between you and me then.

Just think... if one can learn to find peace in the impermanence of one's own existence, then surely all of life's other changes will be a breeze! :) I think one important thing that is learned from all of this thinking about death is to learn to also accept impermanence in general.

Isn't it better to just accept that we do not really need answers to that question to become happy and quiet? If we would start looking for answers we might not be able to get them as soon as we wish, causing suffering. Hi,
