Well, I tested the limits of the projection of non-attachment among the aristocracy; Enigma, Laffy and Reefs. I was able to prove that it was only intellectual and conditional non-attachment. Meaning non-attachment doesn't mean absolute non-attachment under all conditions. That's when Reefs stepped in as sheriff to restore the shattering of their imagined non attachment and loss of credibility. Right. Nonattachment does not mean not giving a sh!t about anyone or anything under any conditions. I promise you won't be asked to turn in your humanity membership card. Fancy meeting you here  . Do you come here often? . Attachment is attachment in true tenkatology fashion . Loving your kids is an attachment through identity . You give a sh!te about them and you will do everything to protect them .. If you feel as if they are someone/thing to save and to protect, then, well, erm, you know .. there someone/thing worth saving .. |

The talk about non-attachment in spiritual teachings is imo not to do away with stuff like a parent's very normal and natural tendency to love and care about their children, it's addressing the unnatural 'grasping and clinging,' the senseless striving to hold on to that which changes, essentially what's being addressed is the delusion that that which changes (form) can be other than what it is. Indeed though, sometimes the line between what would be deemed a normal natural attachment vs. grasping/clinging, can get a bit muddy. |

So attachment is attachment, and feeling there's something to save means it seems there's something to save? |

No, non-attachment, or rather not identifying, can be either intellectual or it can be experienced. A person can be fully involved experientially in an activity and yet not identify themselves as the body/mind that the activity is happening to. Or it can be a belief of the mind that when one is in conversation with others that they are non- attached, tolerant, not playing the one upmanship game, and not identifying with thier mind and body. It is the latter which amounts to bullsh*tting oneself that is the hallmark of the Aristocracy on ST. In my opinion. Sent from my SM-T210R using Tapatalk |

When some spiritual peeps talk of non attachment or non judgement, this might illustrate the sort of thing they mean.... truecenterpublishing.com/zenstory/maybe.htmlI see attachment as a sort of energy gripping, or energy suppression. A want for control. It is usually accompanied by a kind of mental effort or rigidity, the holding of a mental energy. |
