A cycle of forgotten rebirths,
we flow purposefully with time.

I hope, if I feel anything in death, death will be more to my liking than so-called life. Where is my next sandwich? bri : )

I welcome death though I've no knowledge of what it is as far as what it will 'mean for me', if anything.

This poem does little for me; it certainly does not answer what I believe are unanswerable questions about our 'existence', life, and death.

Nice work, why believe in something so cruel as death being the end, when there are so many more possibilities we have not yet come to understand. There is a universe outside our consciousness.

so many possibilities, but I think the maddest of them all is our consciousness being reborn after death with no memories or knowledge of our previous lives.... and yes, there is a whole universe outside of our consciousness but I think it is up to our consciousness to find and map it out

4. Then comes the most famous piece, "vaasamsi jeernani yatha vihaaya…" which says, just as man discards his old clothes to wear a new one, so does the soul discards a body that is decayed (due to age or illness etc) and takes a new one on…

the forgotten rebirths line is referencing our souls discarding one body to take on another body... and so the glitch is the fact that we cannot remember our old body and life since we are reborn without memories of our past lives? ? Maybe? ?

.3. ...Na soshayati maruta "…… meaning the soul is indestructible, it is only the body that dies. The soul has no birth or death or rebirth. It can not be wounded by weapons, not burned by fire, neither can water wet it, nor the wind can dry it.

Although I do not subscribe to your views, I appreciate your line of thought. Your views echo the Hindu philosophy. In Bhagawat Geeta, Lord Krishna tells his disciple, Warrior Arjuna thus: (Contd)
