The unfathomable connection of affinities is a by-product of impermanence. The arising and ceasing of karmic conditions as well as the phases of formation, existence, decay, and emptiness are all associated with karmic conditions. Where there is matter, there is extinction, but the spirituality is eternal. Practising Buddhism and cultivating the mind is all about maintaining the spiritual joy within.
缘分之奇，是无常的产物，
缘聚缘散，成住坏空皆是缘，
有物质就会有灭亡，而精神是永恒的。
修心学佛就是要保持精神上的愉悦。
– Master Jun Hong Lu, Words of Wisdom Volume 5
