Attachment, detachment and money

The body is only the abode of knowledge. Among the basic principles of my philosophy of life is detachment .Nothing is ours. And nothing, except our soul, will have a way.

We live by clinging to everything, even to problems. But donation and patience can save us from this affliction.Just think that the meaning is not anything physical, nothing we can get and take home. The important thing is to believe that by giving the best of oneself to the world, to the neighbor and to the spirit, we find happiness.

And then they ask me: So how can a spiritual person have money?

I usually say that with time and money, you can spiritualize a larger number of people. Because money is the fruit of my work, it is not the result of my spirit or my search for my pure soul. Money is simply a credit to my work on earth for what I have done well. If I direct this money correctly, I make that a conscious value. So detachment is not having no money, but being free of the stupid needs of this planet, to be aware when it comes to using such money. Attachment and detachment have no relation to money, but to one’s philosophy of life.
