"Everything
flows " this was said by Heraclitus the Greek philosopher over two
thousand years ago. Everything that we see in nature and living creatures are
bound by nature’s process" flow " the dynamic state thru which past
leads into present and present leads into future. The effect of flow is visible
in the change that occurs and time is the medium thru which it happens. As we
all know change means impermanence. And by simple logic, whatever is
impermanent has to be transient.
Thus
impermanence and transience are complementary aspects thru which all phenomenon
that may be visible or invisible occurs. The human being as a sentient creature
has self-reflexive consciousness experience this change thru their senses. But
man being conditioned mentally to permanence and that is why finds nature’s
this imposition difficult to accept. Man always likes to hold on pleasant
times, events and memories. Thus holding on to static mindset and this is where
he runs into conflict with nature and the ensuing situation which the flow of
time has brought him to. And for this reason, remain in disharmony with nature
as a consequence suffers mentally. Thus
we see that “ FLOW” being the fundamental aspect of nature and so only by
aligning himself to a mental state accepting the same he can live in harmony
with nature. But this aligning to a mental state in an adverse situation is
only possible if he is able to view the situation in a totally different
perspective by reframing the situation and create a choice . Thus a man who lives
in the present moment in the “ HERE AND NOW ” only
can be with the flow of time and changing situation that does not affect his
mental harmony.
