When Life Falls Apart, Does it Actually Fall Into Place? | A Buddhist Story When we’re hanging onto a root that’s chewed away by mice with a hungry snake below and an even hungrier tiger above us, what can we possibly do to get out of this situation? What is the best course of action when there seems to be no way out? When life falls apart, we might want to remember that everything changes all the time. Like night turns into day, bad fortune turns into good fortune, and a curse turns into a blessing. So, could it be that, eventually, life doesn’t fall apart but... Into place?This video is based on a Buddhist story, that I originally heard from a Buddhist monk named Ajahn Brahm.
