An Ever-Changing Combination


...the human individual is a combination of changing physical and mental elements.

In this sense, the Buddha would say, "There is no such person as Jim. There is only an ever-changing combination of physical and mental energies which for the sake of convenience we call Jim."

---Essence of the Dhammapada, by Eknath Easwaran---
