According to Osho, attachment is identification with the accidental—money, roles, relationships, prestige—so it guarantees loss and suffering because the accidental is born and dies. Clinging to ‘my’ and ‘mine’ crystallizes the ego and keeps us asleep. Only the essential ‘I’ is timeless and cannot be lost; awakening shifts value from possessions to pure being and awareness.
If you cling to things that can disappear, you will hurt; who you truly are can’t be lost.
