Why Nothing Lasts Forever
Impermanence is a concept that feels profound yet deeply relevant to our lives. It reminds us that everything around us is in a constant state of change. Digging deeper, there’s a nuanced layer of impermanence known as “momentariness.” This idea reveals that change doesn’t happen gradually over time—it begins the moment something comes into existence. From the first moment of its formation, every entity is already heading toward its end. In other words, nothing exists in a static state; everything is continuously arising, changing, and fading in every moment.

But what if instead of fearing it, we embraced it?

The Beauty of Impermanence: Embracing the Fleeting Nature of Life
Life is a tapestry of moments—some fleeting, some seemingly enduring. But beneath the surface of all that we experience lies a profound truth: everything that arises is born from conditions coming together, and everything is destined to change.

What Is The Root of All Happiness and Suffering?
In life, it’s easy to point fingers at external circumstances when things go wrong. We blame our jobs, relationships, the economy, or even our past experiences for our struggles. But what if the root of all our suffering—and even our joy—lies much closer to home? What if it’s not the world around us, but rather the very thoughts and attitudes that we cultivate within ourselves that determine the course of our lives?
