Reflita sobre isto: A realização da impermanência é, paradoxalmente, a única coisa que podemos segurar, talvez a nossa única posse duradoura. É como o céu ou a terra. Não importa o quanto tudo à nossa volta possa mudar ou entrar em colapso, eles suportam. Digamos que passamos por uma crise emocional arrasadora. . . toda a nossa vida parece estar se desintegrando. . . nosso marido ou esposa, de repente nos deixa sem avisar. A terra ainda está lá, o céu ainda está lá. Claro que, mesmo a terra treme de vez em quando, apenas para nos lembrar que não podemos tomar nada como garantido. . . .
Reflect on this: The realization of impermanence is paradoxically the only thing we can hold on to, perhaps our only lasting possession. It is like the sky, or the earth. No matter how much everything around us may change or collapse, they endure. Say we go through a shattering emotional crisis . . . our whole life seems to be disintegrating . . . our husband or wife suddenly leaves us without warning. The earth is still there; the sky is still there. Of course, even the earth trembles now and again, just to remind us that we cannot take anything for granted. . . .
