Excerpt from The Hundred Verses of Advice The very thing you feel attached to, let go of it, whatever— · · · Think of any person, any object, or situation about which you feel strong grasping or possessiveness, and try to look clearly at the beauty, power, or wealth to which you are so attached. Examine each of them down to the very foundation. Do they not seem like illusions? When you look at things in this way, your attachments diminish and you no longer feel the same pressing need to possess them. If you take the attitude, "I don't need anything!" your state of mind will be naturally free and serene. |
