Permanent Impermanent (part 2)
A lady with cancer visits Plum Village annually, finding improved health upon return. Despite the healing environment, she must leave. Living simply and practicing with a community greatly benefits health. Changing our environment is crucial, as stress and lack of peace impact well-being. Through deep looking, we can create a safer environment and facilitate healing, emphasizing Sangha building and environmental improvement in retreats. Birth and death are intertwined, highlighting impermanence. Buddhist teachings ease suffering like fear and anger, aiming to connect with true nature beyond birth and death through meditation. Vipassana reveals true nature, touching essence without excessive thinking. Waves exemplify interconnectedness and impermanence. Nirvana transcends concepts like birth and death. Everything transforms; nothing disappears. Reality transcends being and non-being. Buddha taught impermanence and non-self, emphasizing interconnected streams of being. Understanding impermanence leads to wisdom and happiness. Nirvana quiets concepts like birth and death. Mindfulness centers offer non-religious practices for all, emphasizing mindfulness in various settings. Training options are available at Plum Village or the Green Mountain Dharma Center. Sister Annabel Tran Duc can discuss establishing mindfulness centers. Let’s create spaces for mindfulness and happiness.
