"諸行無常" meaning in Japanese

See 諸行無常 in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Noun

IPA: [ɕo̞ɡʲo̞ːmɯ̟ʑo̞ː] Forms: 諸行無常 [canonical] (ruby: 諸(しょ), 行(ぎょう), 無(む), 常(じょう)), shogyō mujō [romanization], syogyau muzyau [romanization], しよぎやうむじやう [hiragana, historical]
Etymology: Buddhist expression borrowed from Chinese 諸行無常／诸行无常 (zhūxíngwúcháng), in turn a translation (directly or via Pali) of Sanskrit सर्व संस्कारा अनित्याः (sarva saṃskārā anityāḥ, literally “all deeds are impermanent”). As Japanese, also analyzable as a compound of 諸行 (shogyō, “all things”) + 無常 (mujō, “impermanent, transient”). The two constituent Japanese terms are citable to the early 600s, while the first citations of the full four-character phrase in Chinese are from around the mid-600s. However, the full four-character phrase in Japanese usage is first cited much later in the 観智院本三宝絵 (Kanchi-in-bon Sanbō-E), a collection of Buddhist writings from 984.
