On 8 April, Buddhist temples across Japan commemorate the birth of Siddhartha Gautama, founder of Buddhism. The festival features small shrines called hanamidō (花御堂) or flowers pavilion, which worshipers decorate with flowers, typically peonies and Japanese irises. The hanamido shelters a statuette standing in a large shallow bowl and is covered and surrounded with flowers.

All compounded things are impermanent. The historical Buddha taught this, over and over.

The dialectical context I will use is from a school of Buddhism called Mādhyamaka, a Buddhist tradition founded by Nagarjuna some 600 years after the Buddha's parinirvana (the great passing).
