women will be like "oh my dog was a human in a past life thats why she can understand me" girl what bad thing did your dog do to get reincarnated as animal from being a human???

@georgia buddhism typically has such a negative view of reincarnation. it's like so easy to get reincarnated as an animal

@unmind @georgia one of the things I dislike about Buddhism (or some Buddhist teachings) is that you get reincarnated as an animal for being unskilled or having bad karma it’s very human centric

@unmind @georgia like who is to say being a rat wouldn’t be a hundred times better then engaging in the human rat race

@OneRatOneVerySmallTrenchCoat @georgia @unmind yeah but nirvana is even better than that

@risperdoll @georgia @unmind yyyyeah… being reincarnated at all is lame I think. I just also think human is pretty low on the “things I’d want to be” chart

@risperdoll @OneRatOneVerySmallTrenchCoat @unmind the biggest reason its a privilege to be a human is that only humans can experience nibbana/samadhi.

@georgia @risperdoll @unmind this is my problem with human religion everything has to squeaking revolve around us … I um think everything had the divine in them so um ^^ even if they don’t get out of the torture nexus this time they always could!! Or whatever

@OneRatOneVerySmallTrenchCoat @georgia @unmind there was a tumblr post earlier (or a screenshot of something else?) that was a poll like ~you could get $500k but you have to spend 5 years as a rat living in the new york city sewers~ and i'm all like ok but that just sounds unmitigatedly good what's the catch

@OneRatOneVerySmallTrenchCoat @georgia @unmind (and of course a wild rat managing to live for 5 years must necessarily imply it would be leading a very good and comfortable life)

@apophis @georgia @unmind right??? Like you don’t even have to leave the sewers some ppl just don’t get it

@OneRatOneVerySmallTrenchCoat @risperdoll @unmind every creature even plants are ensouled with Gods soul and are thus essentially God in my advaitic opinion

@georgia @risperdoll @unmind agree!! So agree!! We are all together be it plant or little skittery friend in being tortured ^^

i mean, that wild rat has $500k

@eris @apophis @georgia @unmind this rat wishes she had 500 k 😞

@OneRatOneVerySmallTrenchCoat @risperdoll @georgia the good news is that if you have the aspiration to be reborn as an animal you that's a cause to be reborn as that animal
