| 摘要 | In Eastern, particularly Buddhist, thinking the process of change and impermanence is an integral part of existence. All suffering in life is the result of ignorance of this basic reality. A deeper awareness and appreciation of this fact leads to enlightenment and real happiness. It is the rapidity of change that is responsible for the illusory processes that create the sense of solidity, continuity, permanence, entity, agency, self or ego. Thus, the mind is able to mix the real with the unreal. In reality, there are merely processes. However, mere intellectual understanding of this is not enough. It requires experiential understanding through the expansion of consciousness and attention to these processes. It also requires experiential training, appropriate attitudes (such as kindness, compassion, joy and equanimity) and development which is often gradual. Thus, learning to appreciate and delight in the existential process of change is at the heart of the Buddhist approach. It is beneficial not only in the long run (i.e., leading to enlightenment and freedom from the cycle of birth and rebirth, the ultimate purpose of life) but also in the short term (i.e., by making living and dying enjoyable). |
