On the buddhist concept of Rebirth

I actually prefer the concept of reincarnation... even though I understand what you're getting at.

People now seem to think, oh, I'll be reborn. It's 'my' rebirth.

and its not. remotely. the phrasing I always heard was only a remnant of a remnant goes forward. nothing recognizable as I or me or mine... it's identity (if any, I'd say no) is karmic.

I think reincarnation is a better concept. What you are, will be re-incarnated. incarnated into a different form entirely.

but, syntax... its never semantics.
