Episode notes
Anica and Change
- The concept of Anica, a Sanskrit/Pali word for change, is central to Buddhist teachings.
- It emphasizes that change is constant and inevitable, rather than a disruption.
Observing Change
- Quiet your mind and become present through meditation to observe the flow of change.
- Notice how your attention, wherever it's placed, rests on something constantly in flux.
The River of Experience
- The river of experience, including thoughts, feelings, and perceptions, is ungovernable and insubstantial.
- We can experience it, but we don't own it; it's unreliable and constantly changing.
