The only possible "end" that I could see is by a ginormous meteor.

Another 5 billion years until the sun begins dying, so we don't have much to worry about. Sucks to be our kids, though.

I wouldn't be surprised if China goes ape shit with nuclear weapons. They have more than anyone in the world. And their leader is insane.

Bro I thought it was the end when you had stopped posting for a while.

The delusion that we're living in the so-called "end times" is the very height of arrogance.

Yup, this place will keep on ticking well beyond our bodies become space dust, but our consciousness live on through samsara, at least IMO.

One can speculate about "death after death," or a death in the afterlife that returns one to life. This concept, along with that of karma, in which all action is seen as the result of previous action and the cause of future action, were combined in the Upanishads to produce the meaning of samsara as "reincarnation based on past actions." Karma not only determined in what form or what caste one was reborn into, it also made reincarnation necessary. All your actions must produce some action in the future; the only way this can happen for all your actions is if you have lives in the future.
