This is a very deep Chinese saying and it means that life is just an illusion and everything is just a reflection of our eye sight. The flower reflection in the mirror is just an image and it is not real while the reflection of the moon on the water is only temporary and with a wave of our finger on the water, the moon can jusf disappear like magic Life is like what it depict only a temporay reflection in our eyes. One moment it is there and the next it is gone .
In Buddhism , there is a concept of impermanence and everything is changing from second to second without the host knowing it. Human being is wonderful creature. Many million cells are dying and millions get replaced . Our mind is also constantly thinking and moving . It is impossible for us to know all the changes within us.
What have is only the present moment . The past is gone and the future is yet to come . If we lost the moment , we are nothing but drifting in transition from moment to moment . We are not real but just a reflection.
We better be aware and appreciate the present which also slipping off from our fingers and make us nothing . Nothingness.
Namaste
