When you read what I call “spiritual books” very often they will discuss the subject of Attachments. Simply, Attachments are energetic connections to animate and/or inanimate objects. It could be a person, an item, concept or a belief, however the important part is the behavior that follows.
Attachments are essentially the root of many behaviors and ultimately outcomes. If you are attached to the belief that you can’t do something you will unknowingly act from that center and it will be a self fulfilling prophecy. This is why the “self help” section in book stores are filled with books that tell you to “Attach” to a positive idea or concept. If a person is successful in attaching to a positive idea, it is possible to successfully overcome a negative attachment. However the person is trading one attachment with another, which has it’s own negative side effects.
What to do?
The most powerful way to create is to not swing from one attachment to another, i.e. negative to positive. The best method is to release the Attachment. By releasing the Attachment you will allow yourself to naturally flow and create. This is the basis of mediation.
