Eternalism

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The word eternalism has at least three meanings:

  • Eternalism is a position in phenomenology that the world must be seen as static and fixed. This worldview is in opposition to mobilism, which states that the world must be seen as in a constant state of flux. These worldviews are particularly relevant to paradoxology.
  • Eternalism/Perpetualism is the common English translation of sasatavada, the doctrine of eternal becoming rejected by Buddhism.
