Flux of Life

Ideas extracted from Piyadassi Thera.

A Living Message.

In Life, an individual existence is the succession of changes that comes into being and passes away, not remaining constant for two consecutive moments.

There is no gap between one moment and the other.

This change of continuity which we possess in this life does not cease at death.

The death here now is the beginning of another life in another place without a transmigrating self or entity.

The mind flux continues incessantly over as an electric current continues to function though the bulb is broken and the light is not manifested.

Next birth is just like fixing another bulb, with high or low watts (kusala or akusala kamma in transsission).
