[Buddha-l] How Khushwant Singh does

[Erik Hoogcarspel]

Pain for who? I guess the mother has to endure most. I wonder if it is 
the pain that makes thinking about death so terrible. Heidegger called 
death the possibility of all impossibilities. But death also puts in 
perspective that which one takes generally for absolute: ones own existence.

Try balancing it by occasionally thinking about the miraculous but often painful process of birth. And congratulate yourselves - we've all survived birth so maybe we can sail through the rigours of death with the same expertise!
