Over the past couple of weeks, there has been a lot of discussion about taking action to experience manifestations. And I think there is a consensus, that yes, action must be taken. Although I still see varying opinions on how much action and when it should be taken (here and other forums).

There is a concept known as 'detachment' which has often been spoken of in context of prayer, IM and realizing one's desires. I've seen it brought up a few times around here, but I don't remember anyone focusing discussion on it.

Many spiritual teachers through the centuries have spoken of the importance of detachment. From what I've heard or read, it seems to be that a detachment from the how something will manifest will better allow its manifestation.

How does this coincide with your belief in taking action? Are you practicing detachment?
