"Change & Transformation"


I happened to be on a spiritual forum, where a hundred or so, spiritually inclined minds were engaged in a lengthy discussion on 'change' & 'transformation'. Evidently, I  was kind of dizzied!

I was given to understand that most of these fertile minds were of the opinion that 'transformation' in the spiritual world had a nature of 'permanence' to it,  

I lack spiritual insight in any measure to attempt deliberate on something, which to me, is of such oceanic proportions! 

However, it was how I put forth my understanding of ‘Change’ and ‘Transformation’: 

"First and foremost, nothing is static in this universe. 

And as such, any changed or transformed state is bound to have further change or transformation at some unspecified time in future. 

‘Change’ is an alteration of the present state to another state, one that could be better or worse or of no great significance. Change could be big; or even so small and subtle as to go practically unnoticed. 

‘Transformation’ on the other hand, is alteration of the present state to one that is of a remarkable nature or proportion, and hence clearly visible. As such, is very likely to get noticed.

‘Change’ can be continual. So too can be ‘Transformation’!

‘Transformation’ though a change of form or state from the present to the next, need not necessarily stay put or end there. 

The presently 'transformed state' could again experience the change and further transform to the next phase, and so on and on and on, that it could be forever continual! 

What I say is that a 'transformed state' need not remain static."


Do you think there is something more to it?
