What\u2019s impermanent is suffering. What\u2019s suffering is not-self.

And what\u2019s not-self should be truly seen with right understanding like this: \u2018This is not mine, I am not this, this is not my self.\u2019 Seeing truly with right understanding like this, they have no theories about the first beginning. Not having theories about the first beginning, they have no theories about the final end. Not having theories about the final end, they don\u2019t obstinately stick to them. Not misapprehending, the mind becomes dispassionate toward form, feeling, perception, choices, and consciousness; it\u2019s freed from defilements by not grasping. Being free, it\u2019s stable. Being stable, it\u2019s content. Being content, they\u2019re not anxious. Not being anxious, they personally become extinguished. They understand: \u2018Rebirth is ended, the spiritual journey has been completed, what had to be done has been done, there is nothing further for this place.\u2019\u201d","title":"Impermanence (2nd)","tradition":"Samyutta Nikaya","translated_text":null,"word_count":196}
