Change Makes All Things Possible
As
Buddhists, we work to accept the impermanence and inevitable decay of
the physical body. But it’s not enough to accept it as a fact; we can
believe in this and still not want it in plain sight. Nagarjuna said,
‘Change makes all things possible.’ It is only because of change that
suffering can end—and it is because of change that our bodies fall
apart, like all compounded things. We cannot have one without the other,
but we try.
