Chapter 4: Impermanence
TEACUP IS NOT A TEACUP book
Some excerpts of the podcast:
"In our world, how could things be forever unchanging? Moment to moment, time passes by; everything changes continuously and ceaselessly. All things and events arise by aggregations of causes and conditions, and cease again by dispersals of causes and conditions. All living beings go through ‘birth, aging, sickness and death’. Every event and
thing in our world goes through ‘arising, abiding, changing and extinction’. A new and beautiful object or a luxurious building is constantly in the midst of change. After a few years or a few decades, you will see that it has aged and deteriorated. Even the world in which we live also goes through ‘formation, existence, destruction and void’. It never ceases to change. Finally, it will be destroyed."
