"Impermanence" is an essential teaching of Buddhism, which I'd say expresses a similar concept as entropy. > All temporal things, whether material or mental, are compounded objects in a continuous change of condition, subject to decline and destruction. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Impermanence https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Impermanence > Impermanence (Pali anicca, Sanskrit anitya) means that all things (saṅkhāra) are in a constant state of flux. Buddhism states that all physical and mental events come into being and dissolve. > Human life embodies this flux in the aging process and the cycle of repeated birth and death (Samsara); nothing lasts, and everything decays. This is applicable to all beings and their environs, including beings who are reborn in deva (god) and naraka (hell) realms. This is in contrast to nirvana, the reality that is nicca, or knows no change, decay or death. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Three_marks_of_existence https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Three_marks_of_existence
