Along the course of your life, you grow attachments.
Attachment to the body loses your true identity.
Attachment to family and friends
Faces painful separation.
Attachment to money and things
Leaves you on top of a mountain of desires.
But attachment to God
Is another name of "devotion".
It relieves your mind of restless thoughts.
It relieves your body of sores and diseases.
It heals all pains in your wounded heart.
Attachment to God
Leads to detachment to the world.
God gives you
The strength to live amongst all of this,
And still be totally unmoved and unaffected.
God will break the bonds that immobilize the self.
Why are you drowning in these whirlpools
Of worldly attachments?
I say,
Leave all and stay only in the name of the Lord.
Leave all, and hold only His feet.
That will save you from this world
And lead you to His!
