The story behind these words
The words on this clock distil a longer thought from the people who said them first.
“This too will pass away.”
“Everything that exists is in a manner the seed of that which will be.”
“Nothing is permanent in this wicked world — not even our troubles.”
“All conditioned things are impermanent — when one sees this with wisdom, one turns away from suffering.”
“All things fade and quickly turn to myth; quickly too utter oblivion drowns them.”
“High winds do not last all morning. Heavy rain does not last all day.”
“You cannot step twice into the same river, for fresh waters are ever flowing in upon you.”
“And this, too, shall pass away. How much it expresses! How chastening in the hour of pride — how consoling in the depths of affliction.”
