Transcript

That very seeking security bring about the new attachment in order to get rid of the old attachment where the fear is being created.

The very seeking is an escape by creating something new to be attached to in order to feel a sense of stability.

But in that attachment,

Fear is inevitably generated.

The very attachment bring about all kinds of issues to the mind.

In that very way to get rid of the attachment,

Fear is inevitable.

So such a life is full of all kinds attachment,

Detachment.

The mind keeps being trapped in different attachments to escape in order to find a sense of stability.

But this whole process of attachment,

Detachment only bring about the instability,

The restlessness,

The problem,

The fear.

The attachment implies wanting,

Possessing,

Craving.

As long as there is attachment,

There must be fear,

The fear of losing,

The fear of disappearing,

The fear of being nothing,

The fear of not fulfilling.
