Joe, Believe me, if you have 1 or 3 coins, then you're a 'hoarder' compared to me.
Now then governor, what's all this talk about "dissembling" then, eh? I agree with your definition regarding desire and attachment, but I also understand the definition of 'coin' and they definitely have 2 sides. If we're talking Buddhism 101 here, then it's not too hard to see that 'craving' is the coin and attachment and desire are the 2 sides. Shish kebab, already.

But: Desire is for what you do not have; Attachment is to what you've got. Sheesh, already. No more dissembling, now, OK (All)? Take a definition as Definitive. And understand. That latter is the most important! When it comes to words. --Joe > mike brown <uerusuboyo@...> wrote: > > Joe, Glenn and Edgar, > > Attachment and desire are basically two sides of the same coin.
