Eight Worldly Conditions

The Eight Worldly Conditions are :

1) Loss
2) Gain
3) Fame
4) Shame
5) Praise
6) Blame
7) Pleasure
8) Pain

These conditions among human beings are inconstant, impermanent, subject to change.

Knowing this, the wise mindful person, ponders these changing conditions. Desirable things don't charm the mind and undesirable ones bring no resistance.

The mindful person neither welcomes these conditions nor rebels against them.
