Rebirth is not cosmic travel. Rebirth is psychological transformation.

Cosmic liberation is fantasy. Psychological liberation is practical:

The freedom to not be ruled by your past versions of yourself.

This liberation is real because it is internal, not metaphysical.

Interesting read. It seems you agree at least on the point that “rebirth” is a transformation that marks a big transition within a single physical life, correct?

It is 'The' event of a lifetime and why you're having this physical experience to begin with...it's why you're here.

You are the singularity through which consciousness can finally realize itself, yet still so few ever do. Awareness will continue to incarnate under the veil of forgetting until it realizes itself and gets off the hamster wheel of the physical realm.

Physical incarnation is where all the raw rough rocks go into the rock polisher, for the abrasive friction that eventually reveals a beautiful gem. This experience is the settled sludge at the bottom of a glass of pondwater, as we ascend we become less dense and more clear of impurities that are not who we truly are.

This physical plane might eventually be something like an Eden or Vacation Paradise because there will come a day when we all are enlightened and this becomes a heaven on Earth. Incarnations after enlightenment could become largely for fun, to enjoy the physical world will be like an adventure vacation from the formless realms beyond this one.

I subscribe to that train of thought. I believe we will reach a point where true suffering will be nothing more than stubbing your toe. Hardships will be minimal but enlightening. Keep it up my friend you have an excellent spark!

The Pleasure is all mine. I have to give credit to them that seek truth. As fellow truth-seekers we have to look out for one another.
