According to Buddha
“And what, bhikkhus, are the seven principles of non-decline? As long as the bhikkhus develop the perception of impermanence, only growth is to be expected for them, not decline. As long as they develop the perception of non-self . . . . . . . the perception of attractiveness . . . . . . . the perception of danger . . . . . . . the perception of abandoning . . . . . . . the perception of dispassion . . . . . . . the perception of cessation . . . Only growth is to be expected for them, not decline.”

🤍🦋🤍to you Amber!
I like those seven principles. Read them in my youth, still struggling to practice them.
well Hien I do as well…I’ve read and reread The Buddhist Theory of Impermanence…and it’s wooly 🤓🙃🙂but I love thinking about it…and three basic facts of all existence are:
Impermanence or Change (anicca)
Suffering or Unsatisfactoriness (dukkha)
Not-self or Insubstantiality (anattaa).
seems so many facts these days…change is hard work..I also struggle to practice them🤓🤍🦋sending joy hedy 💫
Super photos, Hedy.
