88 On Integrating Change

Beloved Tara,

Love.
Very good.
Keep on!

Any situation that changes your sense of "normality" is usually good, even if its unpleasant.
It is important to have these experiences from time to time, and when they happen to try to get the most change and dynamism out of them possible.

Then when things are back to "normal", to try not to just forget what occurred, but to integrate it and make your growth permanent.
It is easy to have big "transformations", only to have them fall back and disappear when the conditions that created this crisis are no longer present.

Love
Swami
