Introduction

In England it's very good to contemplate changing the seasons. It's these simple kind of reflections that keep reminding us this is the way it is. Our personal feelings, our preferences, our prejudices, our likes and dislikes, our opinions and views are constantly arising. As long as you identify cling to Sankharas as your identity, you're going to be caught in the changingness of life. So this emphasis is the Buddha made on in nature,. impermanence, changingness, is not a doctrinal Buddhist doctrine that we must believe but an invitation to investigate or witness to change.
