The successive existences in a series of rebirths are not like the pearls in a pearl necklace, held together by a string, the ‘soul,’ which passes through all the pearls; rather they are like dice piled one on top of the other. Each die is separate, but it supports the one above it, with which it is functionally connected. Between the dice there is no identity, but conditionality.

Comment by Julian Colgan on August 15, 2012 at 6:38pm Rebirthing oneself into the loving compassion of a Bodhisattva, the rebirth of the body is not an obstacle to enlightenment since the world in all of its internal and external chaos is a great ocean churning with Consciousness.
Giving to anyone who has been humbled by the processes of life and the cycles of suffering, the Bodhisattva is reborn for the upliftment of one and all. Working on changing that which needs to be changed within the mind and heart of conditioned and unconditioned beings, the Bodhisattva's path is never finished.
Not worried over the factors of time, what is the Bodhisattva without samsara and without a Dharma to hold onto for the sake of others? The world and all of its problems are what make the Bodhisattva into a Bodhisattva.
