Dharma Night: Is Rebirth True? (2)

In this second talk on the truth or otherwise of rebirth and karma, Vaddhaka focuses on three specific areas; (i) the phenomenon of tulkus or reincarnate lamas, (ii) the scientific evidence for rebirth, and (iii) near-death-experiences. He concludes with Sangharakshita’s considerations on rebirth.

--------------------------------------------

Is there life after death? The Buddha taught rebirth, but what exactly did he teach? What’s the evidence for rebirth? Do we have to believe in rebirth to be a Buddhist? What can modern writers, philosophers and scientists add to the debate around life after death?

In this series of six talks Vaddhaka will guide us on an exploration of these and other questions to help us develop our own beliefs and views on what might happen when we die.
