Teaching #39: Being Free from the Stickiness of Attachment

 

To dance with life is to meet life on its terms, to be at ease, even enjoy the ever-changing interplay without clinging. I call this ease with feelings of desire being free of the stickiness of attachment.

Chapter 9, Pg 92

For your reflection: Begin to cultivate awareness of your particular form of “stickiness.” Notice those occasions that elicit it. Is there a word other than stickiness that describes better for you this feeling of clinging and attachment? Remember you are not this clinging, it is just arising due to causes and conditions.
