The Importance of Letting Go

I hope that this video helps someone out there.

Nothing in life is permanent. Everything is subject to change.

Trying to hold onto something (grasping) is (according to Buddhists) the root cause of all suffering.

Some of you may be suffering right now.

It could be that a job you have is ending or you have already been made redundant, so you are worrying about your future.

It could be that a loving relationship that you are/were in has come to an end and that is hurting you.

It could be that a friendship has ended, which is causing you pain.

However, if you accept the ultimate truth that nothing lasts forever and that everything is impermanent can be very liberating.

That is what I wish for you.

Have a great day.
