- Attachment is the cause of so much suffering. And yet we can find it very difficult to let go. But with the right understanding, we can learn let go of our attachments, and discover that peace and joy which is not dependent on anything outside of ourselves, and which is already and always available within.
"A feeling of aversion or attachment is your clue that there's (inner) work to be done."
- Ram Dass
"You don't have to add anything in order to be happy. You've got to drop something."
- Anthony de Mello
"The truth is you can't try to let go. Trying is the opposite of letting go. To let go is to relinquish trying. To let go is much more like to let be."
- Adyashanti

These are the videos everyone needs to see. How can we boost your views? I'll share as much as I can. Right on brother. ❤
Your video is so timely! You have no idea how much i needed this today. Thankyou ❤
I am holding on to ‘things’ that I believe are going to help me ‘save’ others. My biggest fear is that I will powerlessly have to watch people suffer, where I could have been able to offer help if properly prepared.
It's been a while since I've gone down the Buddhist "attachment" idea but this was well explained a bit more indepth than I knew. Thanks for the insight.
I watch your videos with closed eyes
This was just what I needed to hear/watch tonight. I felt your voice, it went thru my chakra, as in I felt it first in my hips, then chest, then straight out the top of my head. I've had that happen before many times but not in awhile. So thank you! This whole message had me in tears & something I truly needed to hear. I've had counseling etc... but the way you put it and say it is spot on. I am an old soul but still having difficulty in these times. So thank you. The object I chose to grasp, in your exercise, was black tourmaline. I'm just in awe and thankful you brought me back to my center. ❤🙏
I feel like saying thank you for your teachings every time just isn't even enough.
I wonder if you have an idea of what listening to you means to so many of us...I truly appreciate you, Nada.

Hello There, thank you for the contribution young Bhiksu (Buddhist Monk).
It has been stated that the energy put into something is the equal energy in contradiction to it mentally. Or in other words the effort put into an affirmative is the equivalent energy potentially put into it as a negation.
The passion of the emotion is the key to release the desire. To unfurl the ego and not be personally offended. To allow and accept as eloquently you have already stated.
To observe the contrast from a neutral stance takes patience with yourself. It isn't done just once but repeatedly like developing a compassionate muscle from within. Namaste. (Channeled via angelic intuitive automatic writing. )
Loved this analogy. I have been working on attachment issues with people for a long time. This gives me a new insight into how to see things. Thank you.
Thank you so much for this video Nada. I really appreciate it.
I'm glad it was helpful to you
Just like that, the bell rings a deep knowing within. ❤
Thank you dear Nada, great excercise, to practice and to remember! All the best 🙏
This was so good. Sometimes attachment to ambition is something that must be let go, and replaced with something else. Enjoy things when theyre are available, and be ok when they are not. Sounds good to me.
I am holding onto this person. Constant thoughts that I am not able to get out of my mind. That's my major attachment and reason for suffering
This was very good. Thank you Nada. 😊
I think the reason some people find it difficult to let go, is because even the action of letting go, is in itself an action which requires effort. Whereas, to simply decide to cease holding on, requires nothing more than relaxation.
An archer performs the perfect shot, not by letting go of the bowstring with the fingers, but by simply relaxing the fingers, which will in turn allow the bowstring to leave the fingers, effortlessly.
Stop trying to let go, instead, relax and cease holding on ❤
Thank you for this perfectly timed gracious gift - In deep Gratitude.
At last my healing is unfolding.
Bless you.
I wish I knew that a few years ago, but I’be learned it. I also wish you NADA, were my therapist. Thank you for such great videos and teachings. 🙂🙏🏼
Wow what timing for me! Thank you, I needed this 🙏🏻
It's best to focus on how much love we can give others than on how much others love us or how many love us.
God bless you! 🙏
Greetings from Sweden 🇸🇪
I felt also more energetic and forgiving, namaskaram 🙏
This was a vid I truly found helpful, and I appreciate!. You are a beautiful presence thank you ! 🫶 🙏 ✨️.
Freedom bro. I’m attached to my god given right of financial freedom.
Love from India ❤
Thanks for the wise words
My fingers grew rigid and it was painful to release the grip, it required more effort and my fingers were sore.
I am part of the current situation and reality. I, in part, shape the environment that I am in and am part of.
Easier to let go of desire for life. Can't just will away the need for air.
Gold video ❤
Yes, always available.
Do you remember the stealing of the goose who laid golden eggs and what happened to her?
When I breathe-in, do I worry about breathing-out? When I breathe-out, will I ever be able to inhale´, again?
Anyway, thanks for your video, Nada.
Our journeys are nearly over. /
With cosmic greetings/
Sharing love.

ZEN MASTER!

💕👼 Thank you 🙏 very helpful
Wonderful, pragmatic advice.
But for some, it's easier said than done. due to levels of intensity of per situation..some are not as flexible as others ( my opinion) TY..
That's not just your opinion. It's a fact. It always takes more effort to do something than to merely talk about it. Some people just don't want to make the effort. The phrase 'easier said than done' is the best excuse since it can be applied to virtually anything.
I'm giving this a triple l0vE!! 😅
❤❤❤
Wow, my suffering doesn't come from the desire, it comes from my resistance towards the desire 😮 Thank you so much, I couldn't understand from where the desire had been getting so much energy and gotten so strong, I had given it so much power with my resistance.
I simply have to acknowledge and accept the desire, I don't need to act upon it of course, simply accept it's there and let it be, and focus my attention in things that I actually enjoy and love doing like my hobbies and interests.
Thanks for the answer I was looking for, you're here for a divine reason, thank you so much and I wish you the best. 🙏🙏🙏🛐
Is it possible to empathise and love without attachment?
Attachment has nothing at all to do with love or empathy. Attachment is due to a preoccupation with oneself, whereas love and empathy is concerned with the welfare of others.
Thank you. It's really insightful and I could connect many of my thoughts to your ideas but it's difficult although it's relevant and important. In the case of a person, I must say, man being a social being can't live alone and be happy alone always. He seeks for a sense of fulfillment through his experiences in life and when he is fulfilled, attachment vanishes but when the opposite happens, then things become complicated and then it's hard to practice all these, acceptance and let go and we have to practice that hopelessly and helplessly.
Suurrrrre
i suffer with binge eating disorder and find myself in a cycle where i eat, feel shame and promise not to return but then i find myself leaning on food for comfort, i failed to notice when i feel anxious idk how to be more aware of my feelings. my stomach feels so hard from stress and its hurts :(
any advise?
Eating disorder confusion is worth finding the right specialist therapist that you connect with who can assist in the wiring of the disorder and healing techniques. Seek professional help first.. a balanced approach is to also find a proper spiritual mentor (suggest Reiki) who helps you through desire/attachment practices as well… you can heal and strengthen your awareness, courage, and unconditional love of self. Do this for your well being. 🙏
@@TheFunkybert sadly, mental health in my country is not given much importance some therapiest don't even know what eating disorders are. they just tell u to talk about family prob and that it. and if i find a good one, it will be very expensive. im reading books and trying to do it alone.
Have a look at the carnivore diet.
@@nonkonformist242 thank u i will check it out!
that's so important , thanks a lot once again, i like buddhism and desire is one the "5 hindrances to meditation", that's so true i often get back to this video of "ajahn sona" buddhist monk, on the topic of desire :
czcams.com/video/EMAnzlFHUDo/video.html
you're amazing
What can i do.. i have this strong feeling to have sex with soneone. I dont just want to meet up with some random person, i also don't know anyone to have sex with so i feel this need all the time but i dont want to feel it. I havnt slept with someone nearly 2 years and i actually dont want to do it ever again, to grow spiritually. I dont know what to do. Greetings from the other side of the world
