It seems to me.
Now that seems like an egotistical title, does'nt it.
As one with an interest in Buddhism I feel that attachment to superfluous things was one major point in Buddha's teachings.
2500 years ago I imagine that would have referred to excessive riches, maybe slaves, silken clothes (whatever was posh in those days) vice, exploitation etc etc.
I need not detail the 2011 version
.
As our possessions in terms of gross needs, habits, etc; again I need not go into too much detail, reflects our inner state of mind then it seems to follow that our ongoing thinking processes are very important and in need of working on.
I don't know much about Dhamma but think it means our perpetual growing attitude and improving it,
no easy feat
, irrespective of where we both secularly and spiritually find ourselves.
For me, personally, I see many traps and challenges in need of addressing,as do, dare I say,do all of us.
