When does 'eventually' occur? There never really were attachments to family, business, money, home, everything. Try to hold on, and it all turns to dust anyway. It is first a matter of stopping pretending. (Interesting word, 'pretending' or pre-tending; preparing ourselves to care for our assumed future reality, when it arrives, according to our rigid definition of it. Doesn't sound like much fun, does it?) Next we rediscover more intimately than ever, our relationships to Holy family, business, money, home, the Holy everything, embraced as Universal dharma, in complete freedom. ------------------------ Yahoo!
