Do we get rid of one attachement by creating another one? You & others on this forum define yourselves as Buddhists, so Buddhism becomes a part of your ego and you start to use Buddhism in your dialy life, so Buddhism becomes just another conditioning.

why refer to getting rid of attachment when getting rid of attachment is the practise of buddhism?

buddhism teaches getting rid of attachment. Bundokji. i thought you were depending on "yourself"

To depend on ourselves is freedom, but unfortunately we dont want to be free, we always want someone to tell us what to do, this is what we have been doing for our entire life!!! We dont know any other way and we are too lazy/too scared to try.

Yes, certainly. I lived this philosophy when i was 14 years old. However, Buddhism is medicine to remedy unsatisfactoriness.

kind regards
