Can you describe Anitya Bhavana?
Anitya bhavana means thinking about the transitory nature of things around
us. All things of the worldly life are perishable; and nothing is
permanent. It is fruitless to mourn over the loss of perishable, and we
should not lose our mental peace and emotional poise over them.
Therefore, when someone dear to us dies or when we lose something then we
should think that in this world, the body, wealth, family, relatives, and
status, etc., are transient, and we will not feel so bad.
