A man was told by a group of people that his wife had fallen in the river and he needed to jump in and save her. He immediately rushed to the river, jumped in and started swimming against the current.
Everybody was surprised and shouted out to him, 'Hey! Why are you swimming against the current? She would have obviously gone downward with the current.'
He replied, 'You guys don't know my wife. Even if she falls in the river, she will fight it like she fights everything else! She will move only against the current!'
As long as you resist the current, you will continuously create hell for yourself and for others. Not resisting the flow of life is living enlightenment.
