Let Go Of Ego


If detachment is a bliss, why don't we exercise it? The only reason I understand is that it is not properly understood by us. We misunderstand detachment as giving things up & leading a frugal life. Yes, detachment may mean so but, more importantly, it means to accept the fact that things are not to be attached to but to use & after a certain period, to let go of these. Why  only things; let go of your past if it is troubling you, or someone who is the cause of pain in your life. To accept detachment, you have to renounce your ego as well & that is a tough task. Isn't it? Ego acts like a glue to get ourselves attached to things or people. So the only way to detach from things is to let go of your ego & the rest will take care of itself.
