The Search For Enlightenment

Buddhism looks at death in a similar way to sleep, it is not the end of something, it is a period of rest before the beginning of something new.

In the case of sleep, it is the beginning of a new day. Death, on the other hand, is the beginning of a whole new life.

So I do not fear death, though I do not wish to hasten its coming.

I intend to make the most of each and every day, and when death does arrive, as it will, I will enjoy the rest before being reborn into a new and exciting experience.
