Good morning!
We could see the beautiful crescent moon. Just recently we saw the full moon and started spring season. We could now feel the spring atmosphere.
Ancient people found the regularity of seasons (ritu) and the shifting moon phases. Thus they came to know the law of nature – interrelation and impermanence.
The Buddha had the penetrating prognosis and practice of the dharma (law) of dependent origination applied universally, realizing universal dynamics devoid of “self” entities.
It is said that those who see Dependent Origination see the Dharma and see the Buddha. When we witness Dependent Origination, we witness the Dharma and the Buddha.
When we witness and realize the Dharma in our world, we realize and become dharmas and buddhas ourselves.
