Bhagavad Gita 2.28

Beings are unmanifest in their beginning, manifest in their middle state, and unmanifest again in their end.

Theme: Grief

"Beings are unmanifest in their beginning, manifest in their middle state, and unmanifest again in their end. What is there to lament?"

Modern explanation

As the day quiets, hold this: Every visible life is a brief crossing between two great silences. The crossing itself is the gift.

Practical application

Write a short letter to what you've lost. You don't have to send it; the writing is the work.

Reflection question

How is love showing up in me, even now?
