How Can We Deal with Attachment?

Attachments keep everybody stuck. So what we believe that we’re looking for is Vairāgya – detachment. The opposite of attachment, right? But, if that’s what we’re looking for, we’re not looking for the right thing. Because truly enlightened masters…truly divine and spiritual beings are anything but detached or disconnected. They will literally give you the shawl off their shoulders! And, it has been said that Gnan and Vairāgya are the offspring of Bhakti, that juicy, deep, rich love and devotion. So, with Bhakti as the mother, how can detachment even be possible.

In this teaching, Sadhviji beautifully shares that maybe detachment isn’t the exact or correct translation of Vairāgya, then goes on to explain what is the correct interpretation – and, that correct interpretation explains how we deal with attachments!
