TO the Montgomery, Holland, Smyth FAMILY Life after death. Buddhists believe in a cycle of death and rebirth called samsara. Through karma and eventual enlightenment, they hope to escape samsara and achieve nirvana, an end to suffering. With every breath, the old moment is lost; a new moment arrives. Suffering is like a disease we have all contracted There is a pervasive belief in the Western world, generated and maintained by advertising, that it is normal to be happy and healthy, smiling with a beautiful/handsome face and body, surrounded by all the comforts of modern life. As a result, we also come to believe that to be sick, disabled, weak, in pain, anxious, discontented, unhappy or depressed is abnormal. So if I am, for example, suffering with a debilitating disease, or paralysed by grief, it follows that I will see myself as an oddity, not normal, and possibly feel that there is something really wrong with me. However, this does not accord with reality. The very first teaching that the Buddha gave was that our lives are in the nature of suffering. It is being genuinely happy and healthy that is unusual. Once we look around, and observe deeply, we see that every living thing suffers sooner or later. Furthermore the Buddha taught that there is a subtle level of discontentment or unease that is with us all the time in this life. I AM SO SORRY FOR YOUR(our) LOSS Jane, Chris, Lorraine, family and friends Stephanie will be missed deeply stephyy was smart, beautiful kind, and super funny ..good sense of humour xoxo Shalini Hunter
