ATTACHMENT

As human beings from cradle to death, we always lean on our family, friends, and fellow human beings.

attachment

At each stage of life from childhood, it is love, and care and attachment we get from parents and family – is good.

The next stage from childhood to teens – the same love and care and attachment which we get from parents and family – is it good?

DO TEENAGERS FEEL THE SAME?

At this stage, the teenagers feel more attached to his/her friends and peer group. Next, from teenage to adulthood – after marriage.

The circle widens – the love, care and attachment shift to spouse and their children. The life circle keeps changing. So, also – our love, care, and attachment.

Now, is this attachment towards each other is GOOD or BAD?

Good, in a sense, sometimes all of us need love and care. For us to grow and live. To learn and survive in this society and world.

PROBLEMS

However, where does the problem arise in attachment towards our family, friends, or attachment on materialistic things?

When our attachment does not give space to the other person that is not good. That becomes the root cause of all problems and ends in the breakup of a relationship.

Over attachment to materialistic things will end in distress. In the long run, we will lose our peace of mind.

DETACHMENT

Detachment is all aspects will give us peace of mind and happiness. It is not detachment – it is detached attachment as

“WATER STANDS ON LOTUS LEAF IS A GREAT LESSON.”

  1. Well.said, Detached Attachment is the one, now, found everywhere.
    The attachment due to one’s attitude is not seen now widely.
    Good one

  2. Yes dear, detached attachment is very good. But to come that level, slightly difficult. Mogh and Maya is not good,but love unconditionally is what is needed. For that we should not expect anything even from love, even love. Hope everyone attain that stage one day by GOD’S GRACE LOVE AND BLESSINGS.
    Nice of you to give good guidance.

  3. -attachment on materialistic things will end in distress. In the long run, we will lose our peace of mind.
