Summary: Sometimes, the unexpected turns of life surprise us and we have to start afresh. We could either accept and welcome change or resist change. But change is inevitable. During such times, we need to stay firm and still so that the waves of life don’t sweep us away. Meditation helps us stay firm even when difficult situations tend to alter the course of our lives. As Lao Tzu says, "Life is a series of natural and spontaneous changes. Don't resist them; that only creates sorrow. Let reality be reality. Let things flow naturally forward in whatever way they like.”
