There is, at
present, no proof of life after death. If the concept of rebirth, life that
follows death, is a myth, then what reason would we have for not simply devoting
our lives to the present life we now have?
Regardless
of how much we may enjoy the pleasant aspects of our present life, there is one
thing that is inescapable, and this is suffering, displeasure, disappointment,
sickness, death and hardship. What can we do now, in this present life, to make
our lives happier and easier to live from day-to-day?
