Is there anything that is permanent?

What is permanent here? The wind that touched you a moment before is replaced by newer molecules of the wind.

Loud…Even louder…A moving bus and the ongoing music..I look towards the infinite depth of the Trisuli river…And the clouds caressing the trees of the neighboring hills…

“Where are we heading?”, the wind softly whispered to the ever changing cloud.

The cloud answered, “Our final destination is always towards the unison of ourselves to the higher self, and we disappear once our roles are accomplished”…

I simply smiled, thinking about this journey of the mortal self and everything around me that is replaceable and perishable.

Dinosaurs perished…The high hill that praised itself too have slid down as landslide… The glaciers have melted…. Even the temples, monasteries and churches have been hit by the lightening and shaken by earthquakes .

I keep thinking with the moving clouds around me….

What is permanent here?

Nothing….
