Parallax
Impermanence
Posted by Alfredo J. Martiz J. (Panama City, Panama) on 25 October 2007 in Plant & Nature.
The father of one of my best friends died two days ago, I found out today and I feel really sad. I pray for the soul of his father and for God to bless him, may he rest in peace!
Life is precious, don't waste your time and energy being angry or doing things that you don't like; enjoy every day and always make the most of your day, if you feel like saying I love you to someone, don't hesitate and do it for you don't know when will be the last time you will see that person. Share your knowledge with others and always smile, remember that life is beautiful!
"Impermanence is one of the essential doctrines or Three marks of existence in Buddhism. The term expresses the Buddhist notion that every conditioned existence, without exception, is inconstant and in flux, even gods.
According to the impermanence doctrine, human life embodies this flux in the aging process, the cycle of birth and rebirth (samsara), and in any experience of loss. The doctrine further asserts that because things are impermanent, attachment to them is futile, and leads to suffering (dukkha). Under the impermanence doctrine, all compounded and constructed things and states are impermanent.
Buddhists hold that the only true end of impermanence is nirvana, the reality that knows no change, decay or death.
Impermanence is intimately associated with the doctrine of anatta, according to which things have no fixed nature, essence, or self."
