Living Buddha, Living Christ: Exploring the Path of Detachment

Today, Rev. Wendy Craig Purcell's lessons is on "Living Lightly: Exploring the Path of Detachment," inspired by Thich Nhat Hanh's Living Buddha, Living Christ, will explore the spiritual practice of detachment and renunciation as taught by both Buddha and Jesus. Detachment, often misunderstood, is not about indifference but loosening our grip on desires, possessions, and outcomes, recognizing impermanence. Renunciation is seen not as deprivation but as simplifying life to prioritize spiritual growth. Both spiritual figures emphasized that letting go of attachments leads to inner peace, liberation from suffering, and deeper connection with divine purpose. The Sufi story of the Precious Stone will illustrate the value of generosity and detachment from material wealth. 1. Website: http://www.theunitycenter.net 2.
