On the surface level, it looks like these two concepts don’t mix. But I’m seeing a different perspective.
What is detachment, and why is it important? Detachment is the opposite of attachment, which is a human tendency to try to hold onto things because we feel separate from what we need and want.
The strange thing is that when we’re able to detach, then we position ourselves to receive.
Some philosophies teach us that desires are wrong and that our goal is to be desireless. I have a different take on that. That idea is a partial understanding.
Attachments lead to suffering because it keeps us in our limited human nature, which feels separate from what we need and want.
When we are able to let go of our attachments to what we want, then we position ourselves to operate from our Divine limitless nature, which is connected to everything and everyone and is all that is.
So long as we are stuck in our limited human way that is entrenched in the illusion of separation, we can’t effectively navigate this reality and manifest healing, peace, love, abundance. Whatever we do manifest, comes from trying really hard and suffering a lot.
We are spirit beings that came here in human bodies to evolve human consciousness. If there was no purpose to be human, we wouldn’t be here.
Many people ascribe to be spiritual and forget their human nature. That is not a skillful way to evolve human consciousness.
The goal is to align our human nature with our Divine nature. And this is how we do it: first, we identify as our truest Highest Selves as pure LOVE in the human body, Source in skin, God in costume.
This is where the detachment comes in. We realize that we are not separate from what we need and want or from anything or anyone and we let go of that limiting belief so that we can free ourselves to be who we truly are, Divine limitless beings.
From that space we use our desires as a GPS to show us 1) What in us wants our love and attention, and 2) What we can skillfully create for the Greater Good in our lives and in our world, realizing that whatever we do in our lives is done in the entire collective because we are One.
In fact, we must first embody whatever it is we’re creating in the world.
This idea that spiritual people must be poor and live with very little doesn’t come from our Highest Self. It comes from the spiritual ego that feels separate from what we need and want and tries to make us look spiritual and detached from this human life. The idea that spiritual people must live poor and simply actually comes from scarcity mentality, not from who we truly are.
Our Highest Self just sits back and laughs at all of our human attempts to try to reach who we are. Our truest nature doesn’t try to do or be anything because it knows that we already are all that is. Desiring to be desireless is a desire. I invite you to let that go.
I invite you to see yourself as LOVE and Light in a human body sent here to evolve your unique aspect of humanity as your gift and contribution to all of us.
I invite you to let go of your attachment to the idea that you are merely human and separate from what you need and want.
I invite you to begin creating from your limitless nature and to use your pure desires to create the most astounding new earth that we could possibly ever imagine.
I invite you to begin with your own life because that’s the way we do it.
