Why Is it So Difficult to Cope with Loss?

The laws of physics clearly state that for every action there is a clear and opposite reaction. So, that which is born will die, that which blossoms will wilt, a wave that goes up will come down – it’s just the nature of nature! One of the greatest and most tragic ironies of our lives is our unwillingness to look at and face this one, nonnegotiable, aspect of life. It is, actually, the only guarantee! Our unwillingness to look at and realize this is why we have such a hard time dealing with loss – whether it’s loss of our youth or health, our loved ones or even our hair!

Through words of comfort and insight, Sadhviji beautifully guides us on a simple and effective path of awareness that lessens the pain of loss and makes each moment of our lives infinitely more fulfilling and memorable.
