Some of these rich and famous people are suffering because of attachment to this world. They are attached to money and all the fake fans.
Attachment is the source of all human misery. Detachment (detachment from this superficial world) is the way to freedom, the way to happiness.
Attachment is the source of suffering because it creates desires.
Desires can never be fully satisfied.
The moment you satisfy the desire a new one is created.
It's an endless cycle of desires. This leads to suffering because it leads to disappointment.
This is why detatchment (no attachments, no desires, no expectations) is the key to liberation, the key to true freedom, the key to happiness and peace.
Those who are unattached to the fruits of their activity, and free from selfish desires, fear, and anger - they truly enjoy the spirit and the glory of life. Those who are thus free from duality, enjoy peace supreme.
This is what it means to be a truly liberated and free person. A completely unattached person enjoys supreme peace and bliss.
An all-encompassing spirit of love and peace governs this person's life.
The attachment-free person is completely happy and liberated.
"If a man can learn to govern his mind by the mind, he truly understands freedom; and freedom, once understood, is never lost."- Marcus Aurelius
Governing the mind by the mind is the path to true liberty.
True freedom resides in self-control and self-determination. It resides in the mind.
The mind is the source of human freedom. True liberation resides in the mind. The liberated mind experiences total peace and perfect happiness.
Detachment, non-possessiveness, and not dwelling on the past are good. Non-violence and honesty are good.
Ideally, you are supposed to be indifferent to pleasure and pain. It is ideal to live a life totally free from attachments.
A life of complete detachment is the path to supreme bliss.
The path to supreme happiness is the path of complete detachment.
If we do not conquer our passion, passion will conquer us.
Self-discipline is the key to liberation.
Freedom from greed, anger, and lust, self-discipline means victory, happiness, purity and peace.
The liberated mind is happy, pure and peaceful while the attached mind is full of suffering.
Freedom is the greatest good. It is the greatest happiness. It is the highest pleasure.
Detachment leads to freedom. Attachment leads to suffering.
The more attached you are the more you suffer. The less attached you are the more you are liberated.
Detach your mind from the things that cause you suffering.
Only then will you have real peace and serenity.
Only then will you have true happiness.
Only then will you have true freedom. Detachment is the essence of liberty.
Detachment is your way to complete freedom and happiness.
Detachment will bring you spiritual peace. Attachment will bring you misery and suffering.
Attachment will ruin you. Detachment will liberate you.
Detachment is the path to supreme liberation, to supreme happiness. The path of peace. The path of bliss. The path of freedom.
Attachment is the path to misery, to pain, to suffering, to bondage. The path of darkness. The path of slavery. The path to destruction.

So likewise, whosoever he be of you that forsaketh not all that he hath, he cannot be my disciple.
(Luke 14:33)
Provide neither gold, nor silver, nor brass in your purses,
Nor scrip for your journey, neither two coats, neither shoes, nor yet staves: for the workman is worthy of his meat.
