The Nature Of Impermanence

A mostly silent and gentle meditation. Time to reflect on the nature of impermanence by gently anchoring on the breath and remaining aware of whatever is arising and passing away, moment by moment, as we experience life through our senses. A practice to encourage deep acceptance, and letting go.

Transcript

The nature of impermanence can be observed through the practice of mindfulness.

Using mindfulness of breath combined with an ongoing open unfolding contemplation of the senses,

The changes in the body,

Mind and being as we meditate,

Allows us a glimpse into the facet of reality that nourishes a deep and profound insight about impermanence and the nature of our being.

Settling in then and resting attention on the breath,

Open senses,

Open mind,

Observing and being with whatever arises as it arises and passes away,

Moment by moment.

Noticing the transient nature of things as we rest and anchor lightly on the breath.

Noticing and letting go of thoughts,

Sounds and sensations moment by moment as they arise and pass away,

Arise and pass away.

Everything changes.

Impermanence permeates all aspects of life.

Tibetan master and scholar Rinpoche said,

Do not encumber your mind with useless thoughts.

What good does it do to brood on the past or anticipate the future?

Remain in the simplicity of the present moment.

Thank you! I really enjoyed the silent interludes and the background sounds were very nice! This was fabulous to me but not for beginners!♥️🙏🏼🦋♥️

Another excellent silent meditation session. I love the ambient sounds and the occasional guided check in. Thank you!

I personally like that the instructions are delivered only on 3 points along the whole mediation. They make triggers for a good reflection. But this is not for beginners.

Wonderful. Soothing voice, nice background sounds. I like the minimal guidance. Thank you. ❤️❤️❤️
