Running in Neutral!

We need to know how to abandon attachment. Emotions create attachment of desire. In other words if you don't care (don't feel) emotions than you won't suffer. Well, that makes sense.

Being able to remain in the state of "neutral" is wisdom. A situation of suffering can leave to enlightenment and then you understand the nature of suffering and in the future can abandon it. So then you gain an antedote which is wisdom. Emotions come from a sense of "self". We think - I am important; my feeling are important.

Enlightened people are beyond the sense of "self". The buddist figure out "emptiness" two thousand years ago. the nature of all phenomena. The budda have already abandoned suffering. "Let it go!"

We create our own negativity and suffering.
