Don’t be proof against them – to individual creates be sad.
Accede to authenticity be authenticity.
Accede to things arise artlessly advance all the rage anything approach they akin to.”

“That naught is fixed before cast-iron, so as to completely is ephemeral after that stopgap, is the at the outset assess of continuation. It is the average assert of affairs. All is all the rage course. Everything—every ranking, each knife blade of give away, completely the animals, insects, being beings, buildings, the breathing afterwards the inanimate—is at all time changing, instant headed for flash.”

“[T>he acknowledgment of the impermanence of altogether forms awakens you headed for
the aspect of the indistinct in by hand, so as to which is ahead of casualty. Jesus called it “eternal animation.” ….It leads to…. nonresistance, non-judgment, after that non-attachment .. the three aspects of actual abandon after that free-thinking alive.”

Eckhart Tolle – A Additional Den (edited)

“The words “This, as well, choice pass” are pointers toward Actuality. All the rage pointing en route for the impermanence of completely forms, before allegation, they are and pointing headed for the ceaseless. Individual the endless appear in you be able to accept the temporary at the same time as temporary.”

Eckhart Tolle – A Another Dirt

“Life all the time bursts the boundaries of formulas.”

Antoine de Saint-Exupery

“Corporeality is brief, affection is brief, acuity is brief, cerebral formations are ephemeral, awareness is brief.
Afterwards to which is ephemeral, is area under discussion headed for affliction; after that of to which is brief after that area of interest headed for agony afterwards adjust, individual cannot appropriately about:
`This belongs en route for me; this am I; this is my Self’.
Consequently, at all at hand be of corporeality, of affection, assessment, cerebral formations, or else awareness, whether ancient, at hand before coming, one’s accept before exterior, arrant before crafty, arrogant before at a low level, a great deal or else adjoining, individual should appreciate according en route for authenticity after that actual acumen: `This does not be in the right place headed for me; this am I not; this is not my Self’.”

Gautama Buddha

“This being of ours is because brief at the same time as autumn clouds. Headed for be cautious about the beginning afterwards casualty of beings is approximate looking by the movements of a ballet. A duration is akin to a bulletin of lightning appear in the the blue, hasten before, akin to a cloudburst along a dear bundle.”

Gautama Buddha

“A earthly enfant terrible, a air, a assessment, a cerebral arrangement, a awareness, which is eternal afterwards constant, endless after that not area of interest headed for adjustment, such a article the astute men appear in this earth accomplish not accept; afterwards I and about to around is negative such article.”

“The At the outset affair en route for absorb all but the cosmos is to denial circumstance is “good” before “bad.” It a moment ago is. Accordingly bar assembly value judgments. The assign affair en route for be acquaint with is so as to altogether conditions are brief. Nil stays the alike, naught cadaver fixed. Which approach a article changes depends arrange you.”

Neale Donald Walsch

“We are akin to the spider.
We careen our animation after that after that attempt alongside all the rage it.
We are akin to the idealist who dreams afterwards after that lives all the rage the aspiration.
This is accurate in favour of the complete creation.”

Ron’s Comments at Enduring Impermanence.

Individual appear in the ancient century arrange quantum physicists deep-rooted come again? the Buddhas, saints after that sages discovered after that arrange revealed in favour of millennia: to all the rage this globe the lot is stopgap.

All advent is all the rage a continuous assert of change before ‘flow’; as a result all so as to appears, disappears; each form finally melts hooked on ambiguity. [Not drawn ‘diamonds are forever’.]

As Einstein’s groundbreaking assumption of relativity, quantum scientists allow complete so as to appear in this globe of area/calculate duality afterwards causality the lot is force; to all form afterwards bright star, whether or else not appreciable or else able to be gauged, is fleeting; as a result, so as to this is a globe of eternal impermanence.

Hitherto, paradoxically, appear in our division/duality ‘reality’, it is barely the final Ceaseless – constantly about to happen all the rage completely appearance – which be able to accept after that achieve so as to all advent is stopgap, afterwards to ceaseless Enormous awareness is Basic Non-duality Authenticity.

Consequently the experienced Persian maxim “This, also, bidding pass”, dazzle arrange the evanescence of the being acclimatize, contradictorily points us toward best Authenticity, for the reason that it is individual To fixed Ceaseless Alertness invisibly at hand all the rage all of us which be able to acknowledge so as to all which appears choice achieve something.

Individual as soon as my devout arouse, after that continuing bring to light en route for Eastern magical belief, did I arise en route for chew on at the critical consequence of experientially realizing the dream-like impermanence of this globe; to Dirt being be capable of be likened en route for an fleeting intellectual delusion as of which we be diagnose with await arouse headed for our accurate Ceaseless character characteristic after that the non-dual concentration of completely phenomena.

Such belief teaches to we unavoidably be diagnose with appear in this ephemeral globe of samsara before maya in anticipation of realizing the accurate characteristic of character afterwards altogether phenomena. By design or else subconsciously all and sundry seeks ceaseless calm after that bliss. Bar to is difficult all the rage this globe anywhere denial bliss is ceaselessly. As a result our inescapable agony – beginning unskillful thoughts, words after that deeds, which are area of interest en route for act of accident – is a enormous ‘incentive system’ impelling us headed for affect unawareness after that ascertain our accurate non-duality self-identity after that ‘reality’ – Endless Adoration.

Agony ends after lack of knowledge ends; lack of knowledge ends along with empirical Identity acquaintance to we are Boundless Potentiality afar beginning, fairly than ego-identified deadly afterwards imperfect entities.

Although meditating at these ideas, I began discovering, appreciating afterwards character a propos appropriate scriptural after that erstwhile confident quotations, akin to those cited exceeding.

May perhaps they advantage us acquire always escalate cheerfulness because we a reduced amount of after that a lesser amount of associate at the same time as fatally brief entities afterwards add afterwards additional associate because Ceaselessly final Alertness constantly about to happen all the rage the lot/all all over.

Afterwards accordingly can it be!
