The Four Adaptations (Sì Suí)

Ease with Any Situation · Transform with Conditions · Move with Your Nature · Act on Opportunity

The Four Adaptations are the core behavioral principles of immortal cultivation in the Lifechanyuan system: ease with any situation (no resentment toward whatever you encounter), transform with conditions (flow with circumstances without grasping), move with your nature (act from your true disposition, following the Tao), and act on opportunity (when the moment arrives, give everything you have). One who embodies all four — free from self, selfishness, and attachment — is an immortal (Xian), and the state they inhabit is the state of immortality.
