Inner Practice: Impermanence

Today I asked my friend, “Can I bring this mandala back and keep it forever?”

My friend said, “No, it will be destroyed and dismantled.”

In my mind, I thought, “Why bother creating it when knowing that it will be destroyed and dismantled?”

Well, the mandala reminds us that nothing in this world remains exactly as it is forever.

Impermanence.

People come into our lives and sometimes they leave.

Love can change its form.

Happiness and sadness both arise and pass away.

Even the most beautiful things cannot be possessed forever.

We do not create the mandala because we expect it to last.

We create it because its beauty matters in the present moment.

We can cherish something deeply without demanding that it remains unchanged forever.

Impermanence does not mean that love was meaningless.

It means that love, like everything else, exists within the changing conditions of life.
