It may sound like your grandmother, but I think the ideas in the BK are very good, but are misunderstood or implemented in a wrong way. Detachment is one.
I think detachment means more clarity in vision and is possible even whilst in the mundane world. It does not mean one has to leave the world, the relatives and friends physically. It does not mean that if someone is talking to you - you don’t listen or are not in touch with his or your own feelings, or you don’t care, but you will see things more clearly and without prejudice that come from attachment. So one will tend to make less mistakes due to attachment to someone in vision or actions, or words etc.
I think the nature of human being desires to be attached to something. The difference is that if one is attached to many things altogether his mind and heart is put in a cyclone and his intellect becomes dull and unable to decide. For example if someone enters a shop where all the goods are fine he loses there the whole day, liking to buy everything.
If there is such a think in which everything is contained then we will like to have only this. Then if we have something else which is not so full we miss this thing.
We have a new family the BK family. With them we have more things in common, more to share, we speak the same language and share same interests. But there are golden chains also and only if we attach to only one we can become free. So detachment from one thing means attachment to another and vice-versa.
It is also a matter of detachment from bodily pleasures and it is because we are even unable to enjoy. The soul does not have power and soon gets exhausted and the temporary pleasure gives sorrow.
We always like to attach to someone, for what we look is happiness from this one, but in a matter of fact all are also givers of sorrow, sadly it is the world today like this that everyone is mischievous. Today they say, “I love you, I love you” and tomorrow they change. Detachment is also connected to the consciousness that this world is to finish. These are not thoughts of sorrow. It is real. If we fool ourselves no one can fool us better.
And what if the BK knowledge is indeed true? How much time do we lose discussing whilst we have to inform people?
And detachment doesn’t mean to run away, but to manage things better from a higher point of view.
It means to be loving in an unconditional way and not to be cold. It means to have an equal vision to all irrespective whatever they may have done to you or others in the past, or irrespective the ideas or practices they share. Detachment from the various layers there are around the personality.
It is detachment from the body and to see the soul that no matter someone may be your relative with the body, close to the body now he may have been you enemy for many lives in the past and no matter one may be far away with the body, they can be close to you with the mind and with their nature. And there are no borders of faith, language, country, skin, culture.
It is to be detached from even the role we play now, the name and to get to know our many lives.
