That which can be grasped will change.

That which does not change cannot be grasped.

From the wisdom of the Lubavitcher Rebbe, of righteous memory; words and condensation by Rabbi Tzvi Freeman. To order Rabbi Freeman’s book, Bringing Heaven Down to Earth, click here.

To change or not
To change or not can be grasped. The impossible is always possible.

The Unchangeable - The Creator
The Creator's divine quality of 'Love' and 'Kindness' to His creation DOES NOT CHANGE.

WE have to CHANGE / evolve our understanding of His quality

...our task here is to grasp, through numerous levels of consciousness, how to connect to each other on the level of His 'Love'.

Further...
And that which cannot be fully grasped or ever changed is G_d.

This is a nice little twist to the serenity prayer: "G-D grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, courage to change the things I can, AND the wisdom to know the difference."

Grasping Change...
You can never fully grasp another human being, no matter how long you spend. Therefore, you cannot change a human being no matter how long you spend.

Change
I am quite tired tonight. My brain is not grasping anything. I want to know what is meant by the comment you have written. If you please.

changeable and Unchangeable.
"That which can be grasped will change"untill it grasps the Unchangeable.

Hopefully it happens now,or, at least ,hopefully it happens now a way, to be completely seen , towards a smoother,more healthy,more conscient and more lovingly journey.

Would this thought be right too?
