1. Anitya Bhavana Transitory
We think these things are permanent when the truth of this world is that nothing in this world s permanent. Whatever emotions we have come from our karma. As a result of our karma we have our surroundings. Our karma is also follows the same kind of pattern and our circumstances also keep on changing. The nature of our world is there is a death after birth and birth and after death. Again day comes and again night comes. The earth makes a complete revolution around the sun. When someone contemplated this he realizes that he is always alone, will be alone and has been alone. There is no association that is permanent to him. He is alone and he actually feels detached from the world and feel the spiritual bliss from that.
