Swami Mukundananda

What does detachment actually mean? Do I have to give up everything I own?

Own things, but don't be owned

Detachment does not mean you don't own objects. It means objects don't own you. When the mind gets attached anywhere, we become possessed by those objects.

Detachment does not mean that you own nothing. It means that objects do not own you. When we let the mind attach anywhere, we become possessed by those objects.
