人世间万事万物，无时无刻不在发生着变化。
All things happen in the world, changing all the time.
通过学习佛家经典，我们明白了 “人生在世，世事无常”的道 理。人世间万事万物，无时无刻不在发生着变化，而这种变化都遵循着成、住、坏、空的规律。
所谓成、住、坏、空，是指事物从产生到灭亡的过程，从缘起到缘灭的经历。为此，在《道德经》第一章中，老子清楚而透彻地告诉我们：“道可道，非常道；名可名，非常名。”宇宙间有一个万能的“东西”，无始无终地存在于大自然当中。这个“东西”既可以生育天地，又可以运行日月， 还可以长养万物。但这个如此强大的“东西”，我们不知道它叫什么名字,只能牵强地取名为“道”。道如同虚空，涵养万物而不自有。因此，道是宇宙间唯一长久存续的，如同虚空一样，任何力量也无法将虚空毁灭。这就是佛家所说的“空性”的道理。
所以，圣人早就将人生的目标和方向告诉了我们，我们无智的众生只要遵照执行就可以了。
正如当今著名的中国科学院院士朱清时教授在他的退休演讲中所说：“当科学家一路坎坎坷坷地爬到山顶、引以为傲的时候，却发现那些开悟的宗教大师早就在山顶等候我们了。”
Through the study of the Buddhist classics, we understand the truth that “the human life is impermanent and the world things are impermanent”. All things happen in the world, changing all the time, and this change follows the laws of the generating, growing, deteriorating and empty.
The so-called “Generating, growing, deteriorating and empty” refer to the process from the birth to the demise of things, start from the reason to the cause disappeared. For this reason, in the first chapter of the Tao Te Ching, Lao Tzu told us clearly and thoroughly, “Tao” can be expressed in words. It is not an ordinary “dao”；“Name” can also be explained, it is not ordinary “name”. There is a universal “thing” in the universe, and it is in nature without a beginning or end. This “thing” can not only give birth to the world, but also can run the sun and the moon, and can grow everything. But this so powerful “thing”, we do not know what name it is called, it can only be strongly named “Tao.” which contains all things but does not have its own. Therefore, Tao is the only long-lasting and unbreakable thing in the universe, just like the void, no power can destroy the void. This is what the Buddhists call “emptiness”.
So the saints have already told us about the goals and direction of the human life, and our unintelligent beings can only follow the implementation.
As Professor Zhu Qingshi, a renowned academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, said in his retiring speech, “When scientists proudly climbed to the top of the mountain, proud of them, they found that the religious masters of enlightenment were already at the top of the mountain, waiting for us long before.”As Professor Zhu Qingshi, a renowned academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, said in his retiring speech, “When scientists proudly climbed to the top of the mountain, proud of them, they found that the religious masters of enlightenment were already at the top of the mountain, waiting for us long before.”
