  Why don't you fu[b]ck off and die and see if you can see rebirth? I am talking about the buddhists and you ask if I can see rebirth. [/b]

  Even for buddhists as you can see from paperflower's case are not encouraged to dwell into seeing their past lives.
  
  Noob.

  Then why the fuck are you asking me about past lives? I am not a buddhist but just stating about a central tenet of their believes.

  Then why the hell are you asking if I can see my past lives?

  Because even buddhists are not encouraged to look into past lives but to focus on what they can see (unless they can already see past lives), and so should you. Everything else including your computer is as much an illusion as past lives.

  Note: you are also an illusion.

  be careful.
  u all got to differentiate reincarnation and rebirth. reincarnation is taught as Hinduism started it few thousand years before Buddhism. rebirth is what Buddha had rediscovered. or a better translation is birth and death(sheng1 si3). it's more than reincarnation of life. it involve philosophy, changes in life; day and night; 4 seasons of nature; dying of stars and forming of new stars, rise and fall of existences; cycle of life, cycle of energy; EVEN deal with birth and death of cells, feelings and thought process.
  in a way reincarnation got contradictions with the idea of Not-self in Buddhism, while rebirth do not.
