RE: The Three Marks Of Existence
Hi @reddust, Thank you for sharing this post.The three characteristics (tilakkhana) are 1. As impermanent 2.As suffering 3. as not-self .
As impermanent meaning is Every thing is changing. No any one thing we can say this is will not change like that.
In the world one thinh have permanent.That is, the change.
As suffering is every thing is changing, then suffer.
As not- self is if we are thinking that is mine, this is mine, to can't say .
This whole world is made up of bits and pieces of things, who I really am is not a thing....(personal opinion, please talk to a qualified teacher)
A thing like this body is made up of millions of cells, billions of bacteria, bits and pieces of many things, what part of this is you? I don't think there is really any suffering or finding bliss and happiness, just the labeling of suffering and happiness...maybe there is no movement but what we observe as movement and grasping at that causes stress, but who is stressing? I haven't found anything solid or lasting in that flux, I am not a master just a student. This is something one will have to explore and discover on their own.
