STAYING STEADY DURING CHANGE (Open Your Hands)
Manage episode 361102378 series 2290273
So many resist change, as if the only way to stay steady and strong is for everything to be stable. Then we'll know who we are and how to behave. We live inside the illusion that security comes with being in an unchanging, familiar world. However, this illusion is disrupted all the time, as our lives consist of nothing but change. And, the great art of remaining, steady and stable is to view change differently. Change is not our enemy, change is not loss. Change is only change. Once we know it, expect it, let go of resisting it, we become at home and secure in the very experience of change itself. This requires letting go of our endless craving to hold on, grasp things tightly. Instead, in this beautiful, new way of being, we simply learn how to open our hands.
