Sabhava is a Pali word for true nature, and despite the seemingly simple translation of this word, its meaning is much more complicated. First of all, because true nature always refers to a personal understanding of the world. Primitive man lived in a world where the forces of nature were often personified, that was his true nature of the world. The true nature of the world of the ancient Egyptians was different from that known in ancient China, and this is different from the true nature of the phenomena of modern man. However, there is a true nature that manifests itself in every world and in every worldview, although in some it is relegated to the margins. It is nature that is present in everything and everyone. The symbol of this nature is transience, a continuous process of creation and destruction, which implies one of the key concepts – the absence of any permanent element that we could call a soul, a person, a god, me or you. Everything is a process of constant transformation, and if even I was a completely different person yesterday and today – my body has changed, my understanding has changed too, my mood, my thoughts, everything has changed, then is there any point in talking about any me?…
