Just as a lump of foam is empty, void, and without substance…” — Phena Sutta (SN 22.95)

In this powerful teaching, the Buddha invites us to see the impermanent, insubstantial nature of all experience—not as a reason for despair, but as a gateway to freedom. When we meet the changing flow of life with wisdom and care, the burden of clinging begins to dissolve. This talk will explore the Phena Sutta’s radical view of the five aggregates as empty like foam, bubbles, mirages, and illusions—and how this vision can guide us toward release, peace, and the unshakable heart.
