Is rebirth a form of consolation?

Synthesized from Source definition

"Rebirth is a comforting illusion for those who fear death, but true freedom arises only from the courage to confront life and death directly, beyond belief."

If you believe in rebirth just because you’re scared, it’s like grabbing a straw while drowning; only facing fear and knowing for yourself truly helps.
Why this matters practically
- Reveals when fear is steering your beliefs, so you can seek truth over comfort.
- Encourages meeting death-anxiety directly, cultivating courage and clarity.
- Redirects energy from secondhand ideas to personal meditation and lived experience.
