Summary
s.1The Sūtra on Impermanence ( Anityatāsūtra) is a short discourse on the impermanence of conditioned states. The Buddha explains that it does not matter what one’s social status is, whether one is born in a heaven, or even if one has realized awakening and is an arhat, a pratyekabuddha, or a buddha. All that lives will eventually die. He concludes with a series of verses on impermanence exhorting the audience to understand that happiness is to bring conditioned states to rest.
s.1《無常經》是一部關於有為法無常本質的短篇論述。佛陀解釋說,無論一個人的社會地位如何,無論是否出生在天界,甚至即使已經實現了覺悟,成為阿羅漢、辟支佛或佛,都不重要。一切有生命的東西終將死亡。他以一系列關於無常的詩偈作為結論,勸導聽眾們理解,真正的幸福就是讓有為法得到寂靜。
