We can be jolted out of our routine, our normal lifestyle anytime by the grip of fate expressing through situations such as diseases, tragedies and even death. This realization is not to make us pessimistic about life, rather it is meant to make us realistic about life. The lesson we should learn is that we should not be complacent, we should not get trapped into our routines. We should understand the purpose of life, make that a priority and integrate all other aspects of our life around it.
Complacency is one of the greatest impediments on the path of spiritual progress in this world busy with professional occupations and other duties. But if we experience a higher taste, a higher principle, we can be above all the inevitable changes that come in life.
