SAMSARA AND THE NEXT LIFE

Sasanarakkha Buddhist Sanctuary Retreat Zoom Q&A Group B 16 January 2023 (09.55-11:00)

Yogi: Is samsara real or not?

Sayadaw: Every day is samsara; you don’t have to wait until you die.

Every day, we have to wake up and brush our teeth; and we have to do the same this and that. We probably repeat a few hundred things every day and that is samsara.

(15:50-16:24) Sayadaw: Which do you think is further away, tomorrow or the next life?

Yogi: The next life.

Sayadaw: You can think that way and you must also know that your next mind is your next life. Every moment that our mind arises is another life; so, it is the next life every moment.
