Thay’s version of the Five Remembrances:
I am of the nature to grow old. There is no way to escape growing old.
I am of the nature to have ill health. There is no way to escape ill health.
I am of the nature to die. There is no way to escape death.
All that is dear to me and everyone I love are of the nature to change. There is no way to escape being separated from them.
My actions are my only true belongings. I cannot escape the consequences of my actions. My actions are the ground upon which I stand
Dijana’s version of the Five Remembrances:
I am of the nature to change
There is no way to escape growing
I am of the nature to heal
There is no way to escape wisdom
I am of the nature to transform
There is no way to escape metamorphosis
All that is dear to me and everyone I love are of the nature to change
There is no way to escape receiving new gifts
My actions flow from my consciousness
I can always change the course of my actions
My actions are my self
be well, be here, be now
