Well Being with Don Oakley

Letting Go of Attachments

Episode Summary

What are attachments and why is it beneficial to let go of them? We become attached to something when our identity becomes fused with that object, skill, person or position. Since all things are impermanent, attachment leads to suffering. When that object departs, our identity feels diminished. The problem is not in the object itself or in our enjoyment of it; rather it is in our grasping.
