Buddhists say that just as old people forget all the past, newly born souls do not remember their previous lives. We might add that as we approach death (old age), we not only forget the past, but we lose all interest in the future, that is, we get out of the ephemeral life and approach the timeless beginning of life, God.

Romanian

"Budiștii spun că, la fel cum bătrânii uită tot trecutul, sufletele nou-născute nu-și mai amintesc viețile precedente. Am putea adăuga că, apropiindu-ne de moarte (de bătrânețe), nu numai că uităm trecutul, dar ne dispare orice interes față de viitor, adică ieșim din viața efemeră și ne apropiem de începutul atemporal al vieții, de Dumnezeu."
