Attachment is a way of resisting change. The fact is behind the curtains of seemingly normal activity, differential changes happen continuously. Sometimes, these changes manifest themselves in a big event, and our lives gets shaken up. After experiencing sorrow, the mind settles down in its normal routine. The mind has to learn when shaken up by attachment. It has to realize the ever changing and impermanent nature of the manifest world ( both inner and outer). This deepening awareness has a stilling effect on the mind, a loss of disturbances. Only then can we feel the dynamic, non causal happiness that is the part of creation.
Let me merge with my attachment,
my ever lasting pain, my continuous restlessness.
Let me merge with my pleasures and rising elation,
my victories, my revenge
Separation always breeds sorrow
let me merge with my loved one
for there may not be tomorrow.

resolving psychological issues
All psychological problems should be approached in a friendly manner. Making them an enemy, makes the mind stiff and divided. The problems must dissolve, like sugar in heated water. An attempt to crack them open will lead to further distortions.

Harmony
The harmony in consciousness is necessary for individual and world peace. The fragmentary movement of thought, with one end rooted in the thinker, obstructing complete perception is the root cause of disharmony. Object of meditation is the unification of consciousness.

weighed down
Our consciousness is weighed down by memories of pleasures, pains and identities which belong to yesterday. If we leave those behind and dive in the sea of life, becoming utterly unknown and therefore humble, our being will soar like strong unfettered balloon.

memory
How many memories do we have? If we have many memories, then why don't we feel as many persons ? If we feel an a single person, are the memories connected together ? What connects them ? another memory ? If it is not another memory, it must have a part of it as memory. But than it is many. There are contradictions in whatever way you argue

spontaneous happiness
Desire is the seeking of pleasure, continuation of sensation by thought. In the shadow of desire there can be no spontaneous happiness. The process of desire is time. There is a tremendous amount of energy caught in desire. When we realize that desire is destroying the present, there is a release of energy, which is spontaneous happiness. In that release, the sense organs become more active, natural enjoyment increases manifold. Our education system does not teach us to be free of time, it only cultivates the paths to pleasure.

language
Language is based on fragmentation of reality. Braking up produces one and from there on- two, three, many etc. Because of this, language can only be a hint to truth. Play of language is a hindrance in the spiritual path

the folly of opinions
Opinions heat up the mind. It is the substance with which the mind surrounds itself and derives illusory security and pleasure. If you drop many ideas, you will see yourself becoming quieter and more peaceful.
