All is by Nature
inherently & inevitably Decaying & Vanishing!

At Savatthi the Blessed Buddha said:
Bhikkhus, All is by nature subject to birth... All is by nature subject to
ageing...
All is by nature subject to decay & sickness... All is by nature subject to
death...
All is by nature subject to trouble... All is by nature subject to
corruption...
All is by nature subject to destruction... All is by nature subject to
vanishing...
All that is by nature subject to emergence, is also by nature subject to
ceasing...
And what, Bhikkhus, is this All, that is by nature subject to birth, ageing,
decay,
sickness, death, trouble, corruption, destruction, vanishing, ever arising &
ceasing ?
The Eye ... Forms ... Eye-consciousness ... Eye-contact... Whatever feeling
arised
caused by eye-contact, that is by nature subject to ever arising and
ceasing...
The Ear ... Sounds ... Auditory-consciousness ...
Ear-contact...
The Nose ... Smells ... Olfactory-consciousness ...
Nose-contact...
The Tongue ... Tastes ... Gustatory-consciousness ...
Tongue-contact...
The Body ... Touches ... Tactile-consciousness ...
Body-contact...
The Mind ... Thoughts ... Mental-consciousness ... Mind-contact...
& whatever
feeling
arised
caused any contact, that is by nature subject to ever arising and
ceasing...
Understanding this, the intelligent noble disciple becomes disgusted with this
All
...
Being thus disgusted produces disillusion... This
disillusion induces a mental release!
When detached, the mind remains unagitated! Being utterly imperturbable
one attains
Awakening right there & then instantly understands: This mind is
irreversibly freed!
Repeated rebirth is ended, this Noble Life is completed,
done is what should be done,
there is no state beyond, ever after or even surpassing this ...
