..but this is not the end of the road.
The Buddha taught a concept of rebirth that was distinct from that of any Indian teacher contemporary with him. This concept was consistent with the common notion of a sequence of related lives stretching over a very long time, but was constrained by two core Buddhist concepts: anattā, that there is no irreducible ātman or "self" tying these lives together; and anicca, that all compounded things are subject to dissolution, including all the components of the human person and personality. At the death of one personality, a new one comes into being, much as the flame of a dying candle can serve to light the flame of another.[12][13]
Since according to Buddhism there is no permanent and unchanging self (identify) there can be no transmigration in the strict sense. However, the Buddha himself referred to his past-lives. Buddhism teaches that what is reborn is not the person but that one moment gives rise to another and that that momentum continues, even after death. It is a more subtle concept than the usual notion of reincarnation, reflecting the sophisticated Buddhist concept of personality existing (even within one's lifetime) without a "soul".
Buddhism never rejected samsara, the process of rebirth, but suggests that it occurs across six realms of beings. It is actually said to be very rare for a person to be reborn in the immediate next life as a human.[14] However, Tibetan Buddhists do believe that a new-born child may be the rebirth of some important departed lama.

You use your photo to teach a very important and very real event in the lives of those in Patan. To me it coauses no offence I actually thnak you for ahowing it.
The postue of the man is great he looks rather tense, gives the impression that he is doing something that to him is difficult, or that he is anxious ( or maybe I am reading too much into this and he is just feeling cold). The water and smoke are two elemenst i like together. The only thing that I wish were a little different is the piece of wood on the left side of the phot shoul not have had its end cut off.
Hello Phil,
To me this is what TE is really about, showing a world that is not just pretty sunsets (though i am guilty of posting such shots).
Very interesting image & should promote thought-not offence.
TFS.

"Life" has no meaning without "death".
Well illustrated, maybe a bit rude to western eyes but "we" are not the only world.
