No past, present and future

in Buddhism3 months ago

It is sometimes said that time is a mere concept made for convenience.

A way to say it is that there is no past, present and future.

Here, Venerable Tifo describes it as what the nature of vast space is like. The sky is so vast that the division between past, present and future is invisible.

That is very profound. Learning to live in the moment, the here and now is important. Not letting past actions and mistakes dictate the person one is now. Thinking and planning too much for an unknown future can also be a mistake. Being the best version of oneself in this moment is the way to live one's life. There are a lot of things to learn and think about from just the few lines you shared. Thank you.

Nice share!

That's good

I am still grabbing with these concepts. Sometimes I got it; sometimes I forgot all about it.

Be gentle with yourself.
