Nirvana Of Reincarnation. "Su Qin"
"Are you lost little one", asks the Buddhist master.
"No, I am not", answers the lost one.
"Then, where are you going", insists the master.
"To the cycle of reincarnation", says the soul.
"But pay attention to the road ahead lil guy, this is not the right path", says the wise one.
"Really? But isn't that the place I should go?"
"Not at all! You're just running in circles! This is the right way."
Saying that, the master points to a different direction and urges the little soul to go on that path. The little bubble of light listens and goes down the mountain in the direction pointed by the monk. Little it knows that a new beginning will start from that moment forward.
The master looks at it while he descends the abrupt path and exclaims: "This soul was a white fox just about to reach immortality when it suddenly died from the wound of an arrow. It does not seek revenge, instead it quietly goes back to be reincarnated. What a pure soul, I hope it has more luck in its next life!"
It quickly goes down and flies into the village.
"This must be the place that master told me to come, it looks so shabby! But why don't I see other friends around?"
The little thing was expecting to see many other fellows there but no one else was around.
"This is how the reincarnation place should look like", it questions itself when suddenly the door at a well built house that was near opens and is swallowed inside. Here a young woman was just giving birth and the people around her were very agitated and they were running from corner to corner.
"Miss, hang in there", some of the other women said to the woman that was barely keeping her eyes open.
"How is she still a Miss", our friend questions itself while floating through the room and "what am I doing in this place".
Suddenly the bubble of light is dragged into the woman's womb and it screams in the same time with the one who was giving birth but no one can hear a word: "let me out, let me out", "I have to go to the reincarnation hall" but no one gives it attention.
At the last scream of the woman, the baby is out of the womb but is breathless. The people around definitely see how the newborn slowly changes its skin colour to black and gives no sign of life.
They do not dare to tell the mother about the condition of the baby because they are afraid not to worsen her condition too. In a second a miracle happens and the child starts breathing and also his skin turns white again. Everyone is in tears and finally announce the birth of the child to the mother who is desperately trying to search for her newborn in the people from around the bed's arms.
"It's a girl, it's a girl", a person who midwifed the entire process happily yells in the room and everyone inside approve.
"What they're happy about, it's just a human childbirth, nothing special about it. Oh...I'm finally out of that woman's stomach! I have to go to the reincarnation hall fast, otherwise I may miss my chance to get a new existence and I will wander like this until I completely vanish from the world. My soul will gradually weaken day after day, night after night and I will completely disappear because a soul can not exist without a physical body! I don't want this to happen to me! I will not allow my existence to vanish like the ash blown by the strong winds."
The agitated conscience tries to move out of that place but realizes it can not freely move anymore, that it is already in a body and it is actually in the newborn child's body.
"How is this possible", the little soul asks itself. This is not the reincarnation place, right? Why am I questioning myself, no one can understand the crying of a newborn to give me proper explanations. Did that monk lie to me? Ahhh....you lied to me, you stupid monk! You're just a big lier! (But I know that the monks can't lie and they never lie!) What is going on here? I just was reincarnated like this?! In this human body?! Oh...no,no,no, but the humans have a very short life. At least if I could live for ninety years in this fragile body, that would be highly appreciated. And why I keept my intact conscience? I should have forgotten my past existence by now, I should have forgotten everything and everyone. Ahhh....someone please tell me what the hell is going on? Tell me that this is just a dream, tell me that I was never shoot by that arrow, tell me that I have become an immortal and I'm staying now next to the heavenly emperor, pouring tea for the mighty ruler of immortals. Sigh...! No answer back. How unlucky I am. What can I do? This is the worst nightmare ever! At least I am pretty, it is very important for a little fox to be beautiful. No matter in what shape I am reborn, it must be a good looking one! I am the most outstanding little white fox among all the foxes in this world! My skin is smooth, my fur is white and pure like the snow. No one can question that!"
