If one cannot see the drawbacks of carrying a physical body burdened with all kinds of problems (injuries, sicknesses, aches, pains, etc.), one would not worry about stopping the “arising of such a body” in the future.

  • Furthermore, we need to look at the “whole picture.”
  • Do you think you will be reborn human again and again? On the contrary, the Buddha stated that only an unimaginably tiny fraction of humans are reborn in the “good realms” (human, Deva, Brahma.) 
  • See “How the Buddha Described the Chance of Rebirth in the Human Realm.”
