Attachment to Identity
Manage episode 384968146 series 2884842
Many people on the spiritual path give up attachment to physical and monetary assets. Some sell or give away almost everything and move to a monastery in the mountains, but that isn't really necessary and isn't practical for most people.
The Buddha is often quoted as saying "the root of suffering is attachment" and it's not just attachment to physical or monetary things. We discuss what can happen when you are attached to the identity you've been conditioned to believe, and how you can start seeing yourself authentically and give up attachment to your life and your identity.
