There Is No Way to Resist Impermanence, But It Should Not Be Feared Everything in the world, when we investigate its fundamental root, will become a memory.
There is no duality between memory and illusion, so we say, life is one giant illusion.
When you are happy, the world is changing,and you yourself are changing. When you are suffering,this change will not stop for a moment because of yours are suffering.
Impermanence is the precondition for life being able to continue, and it is also the rule that we ourselves always follow. Impermanence itself should not be feared。(page 8)
So then, what does last forever? Impermanence . Impermanence alone is the world’s eternal truth. However, this does not imply that you should treat love and human life casually.
On the contrary, after you understand this point, you must liberate yourself from all the wounds of past and all the unease about the future, and thoroughly appreciate and value every moment in life;
you must no longer take great pains forcing yourself to search for a permanence that does not exist。(page 13)
~An except from The World is a Reflection of the Mind.

无常无法抗拒，但它并不可怕。
世上的一切，究其根本，都会变成记忆，记忆跟幻觉没有两样，所以说，生命是一个巨大的幻觉。
你快乐时，世界在变化着，你本身也在变化着；你痛苦时，这变化也不会因为你的痛苦，而有一刻的停息。无常，是生命能够延续的前提，也是我们本身就一直在遵循着的规律。它本身并不可怕。(7页)
那么，什么才是永恒之物呢？无常，唯有无常，才是这世上永恒的真理。不过，这并不意味着你应该随随便便地对待爱情与人生。
相反，明白这一点之后，你应该从过去的所有伤痕，以及对未来的所有不安中脱身出来，尽情享受与珍惜生命中的每一个当下，不要再煞费苦心地，强求那并不存在的永恒。(10页)
