What is the difference between being unattached and not having interest? | Ask the Lama

Update: 2022-10-09

Description

Lama Michel Rinpoche explains that attachment means to grasp at something and not wanting to let it go. He explains that we can have a positive relation with something without been attached to it. That means that we deeply accept its impermanence. So non-attachment does not mean lack of interest.
