I recently read a book by HH The Dalai Lama called Seeing Yourself as You Really Are, this talked a lot about the difference between me and I. This made me think a lot about life and reincarnation and death. I ended up thinking about being a flame or energy source currently within a human frame. Once I had that in mind it was easy to see how the energy would go on and move from one frame to another, depending on karma, as and when the current frame is old and worn out. On seeing this it was suddenly senseless to worry about dying in the way that it is senseless to worry about my house falling down or my car breaking down. The car isn't the transport or the journey, its just a car. I can get where I am going in any number of vehicles. I appreciate this is a deep concept but it works for me and may work for others. So I will just put it out there.

Namaste
