Transient

Every part of us is transient - be it our mind or body. Whatever teachings I am now agreeing fully, appreciating deeply and strongly encouraging others to follow, may be just valid as for 'now'.

Din you ever encounter certain phases of your life, when you were so sure about something and insisting on its validity, only to laugh at yourself how foolish you were when you did a reflection on it after 5 yrs down the road? But thats the process of growing, I guess.

This is probably why my blog has been gradually transformed into more of a daily reporting diary, recollection of my daily affairs, occasional jotting down of some interesting experiences and encounters, placing reflections to a minimum (here i change again!). I realised that the more I 'write' or 'say' on my reflections, the more 'doctrinised' i become, cos it often doesn come along with my daily practices.

The danger of becoming 'theoretical buddhist'.
