Attachment is caused by desire and fear

Jun 7

Father, I woke up with a real bad blocked nose. I had some resistance tots but my middle finger swells and that to me is a sign I still have to do my hata. Besides, I didn't feel good when I don't do it yesterday.

So, despite a blocked nose I proceeded to do my asanas and body was fine with it. I even have a couple of laughter. Then I did shakti and shambavi which was good too.

My Team is good. I like the flow among us. Things are shaping up. I have a new group of babies now.

Diamond Heart - Book 1
U can be attached to anything that u think gives u pleasure or security: a dream, an idea, a tot, a feeling, a person, a car, a house, etc. Some are even attached to hate.
A deep root of attachment is the desire for complete unity. U want to consume it. It looks like a sticky mechanism.

Ultimately attachment is caused by desire and fear, desire for the good and fear of the bad, desire for pleasure and fear of pain, desire for life and fear of death. If u examine fear and desire, u will see that fear itself is based on desire, fear of death is desire of life, and that its opposite, fear of life, is desire for death.
Desire is there because of the absence of understanding.
