Attachment is not love. Attachment is dependency. Love says: “I care for you.” Attachment says: “I cannot be whole without you.” Attachment turns relationships into chains. Indian philosophy calls attachment: • moha (delusion) • raga (clinging) • bandhana (bondage) The tragedy is: Attachment creates suffering not because life is wrong… But because we demand permanence from what is impermanent. The Householder’s Challenge A monk may renounce outwardly. But a householder must learn renunciation inwardly. Because family, work, and society constantly pull the mind outward. Thus the true question becomes: Can I be inwardly free while outwardly engaged?
