Writings III: Attachment Denies Freedom

by Henry Templeman

In Writings III: Attachment Denies Freedom, Henry Templeman explores how attachment in various forms-whether to beliefs, relationships, or ideologies-restricts the human mind's potential for true freedom. Through a series of personal reflections and diary-like entries, he considers the nature of freedom as something unclouded by any specific system of thought or preconceived beliefs. Templeman's perspective aims to remain unbiased, advocating for an unfiltered awareness that addresses human concerns such as sorrow, anxiety, and inner conflict at their root. "Attachment Denies Freedom" is the 3rd installment of Henry Templeman's diary entries, where he points out that attachment to thought and dependence in relationships prevent true freedom and happiness. He explains how possessiveness in relationships is a form of attachment that robs us of the ability to be fully present and at peace. The book is a thought-provoking exploration of psychological attachment and its impact on our relationships. Templeman's writing style is introspective and insightful, and the book provides a unique perspective on the nature of attachment and its consequences for our well-being. From this viewpoint, he discusses fundamental ideas like love, death, and meditation in a way that connects them to an "immeasurable" dimension of life beyond time. He suggests that authentic love, the dissolution of the ego, and freedom from mental attachments are keys to addressing life's fundamental struggles instantly and completely, allowing the individual to encounter a profound inner stillness that he describes as timeless, infinite, and sacred.
