View source for Four primary elements

The '''four [[primary elements]]''' (Tib. འབྱུང་བ་ཆེན་པོ་བཞི་, ''jungwa chenpo shyi'', [[Wyl.]] ''byung ba chen po bzhi'') are 
*earth, 
*water, 
*fire and 
*air. 


*Earth is what provides support and stability; 
*water is the principle of cohesion; 
*fire matures; and 
*wind prevents decay. 
In addition, space is all-pervasive openness in which phenomena can take place—if it were not for space, a plant could not grow.
