Welcome. There are a lot of good people here. Look forward to hearing from you.

Rather, inquire into his knowledge of
that which is to be practised by us

Four types of letting go:
1) Giving; expecting nothing back in return
2) Throwing things away
3) Contentment; wanting to be here, not wanting to be anywhere else
4) "Teflon Mind"; having a mind which doesn't accumulate things

Greetings Allan,
Welcome to Dhamma Wheel.
Metta,

Welcome to Dhamma Wheel.
Metta,

If you have asked me of the origination of unease, then I shall explain it to you in accordance with my understanding:
Whatever various forms of unease there are in the world, They originate founded in encumbering accumulation. (Pārāyanavagga)
'We should not congratulate someone on the success of their misdeeds, but on the contrary should endeavour to advise him or her to lead a more skilful and wholesome life. If such advice is ignored then we can only give up and let go' - Phra Panyapatipo

Welcome to Dhamma Wheel!
...he wondered whether there was any love between human beings that did not rest upon some sort of self-delusion.
