Attachment and detachment

```

Attachment is my teacher:

"God lives in a cave."

I learn.

Detachment is my teacher:

"God lives in a Palace."

I learn.

Attachment demands my body's breath,

The life of the howling finite.

Detachment offers my soul's Promise,

The Light of the beckoning Beyond. ```
