      I mean, it's literally the Buddhist approach to death though

      Nirvana means escaping the cycle of samsara, you die one last time and don't come back

      Yeah, and I'm not a fan of Buddhism's views there. It's not part of my cultural context the way Christianity is, but if I was part of a Buddhist culture I could well imagine a show that criticizes the cultural exaltation of this the way TGP does heaven/hell in our culture

      I don't really have a religious framework for what I see as goals in religion. Nothing matches. I like reincarnation because you get to reroll, but I see the ultimate goal of existence as achieving maximum amount of what you desire and existing as long as you can

      The point is once you've maxed out, that's it, there's nothing else to do

      Then you reset, erase your identity but preserve your consciousness, and live a different life Sort of like Michael at the end

      The point of the Buddhist idea of samsara is that's what happens when you die normally Nirvana is what happens when your soul has learned everything it needs to learn

      TGP says that, that the only point of resets is to learn something from them, otherwise it's just more torture

      Yeah, I guess I just like life and hedonism enough to think that's not true Like if I could eternally relive my first party at college, the best D&D game I ever had, and playing KOTOR the first time, mindwiped after each, I think that'd be an ideal afterlife

      well if you go by the start of The Good Place S2 even if you reboot with mind wipes there's no guarantee it'll end up exactly the same every time, Michael creates 100s of redos of the neighborhood but can never recreate the first go

      Right, it's kind of a core thing in the idea of Buddhism's gloss on the Hindu idea of reincarnation and the soul that there is no perfect cycle, destiny is escapable (and this is a positive thing)

          If samsara were a perfect cycle then the world would be pointless Karma would just flow back and forth and back and forth forever Every slaveowner gets punished by coming back as a slave and every slave gets rewarded by coming back as a slaveowner and nothing stops

          Gautama's great insight was supposed to be the leap of faith that there is a way out and it can be consciously achieved within a person's lifetime
