Inspired by the 'Will I be reborn as a worm' talk from Ajahn Amaro that I listened to recently and his suggestion that getting off the Wheel of Life is disentangling the mind with the things it gets caught up in, I thought I'd start a new topic.

Is it recessary to become entangled in speculation about literal post-mortem rebirth? Is it not enough to interpret rebirth as a series of different mental states we experience in the same lifetime?

What are your opinions on this?
