If you visited the comment section* of exploring the mystery this week, you already know the meaning of the word attachment varies depending on its context.
Regardless of whether or not you understand the complexities of the word attachment, please choose a or b in exploring the mystery’s first quiz:
The Dalai Lama, the spiritual leader of the Tibetan people, would agree with which of the following definitions:
a. Attachment refers to the nature of our interactions with others.
OR
b. Attachment refers to an unhealthy tendency to project good qualities onto people and then cling to them, expecting they will bring happiness.
FYI: a and b are both bonafide definitions of attachment.
Do you choose a or b?
And the next question – which definition do you want to explore first?
If you have a preference, email me by replying to this message, letting me know if you are more interested in exploring the “nature of interactions” or exploring the dynamics of “projecting and clinging”.

I choose A. B is easier to understand.
Oh fluteyogi – your answer is hilarious. And that's a good thing! My posts tend to get too serious and you lightened the mood. Thank you! If you have any more comments, shoot them over!
I can almost promise you that A ( & B) will get easier to understand as we explore the mystery. Thanks so much for taking the first ever quiz!
