Whether we are Buddhists‚ Hindus‚ Muslims‚ Christians‚ Animists‚ or Atheists‚ we cannot escape the three inevitables: old age‚ disease‚ and death. Nobody can deny that the five sense objects – pretty sight‚ delightful sound‚ fragrant smell‚ savory taste‚ and nice touch – are only fleeting phenomena. They are neither lasting nor permanent. Nor can anybody deny that property is transitory: no one can carry
