value in detachment?

iamomPerhaps another question might be, is there any value in cultivating a detached demeanour in my daily life? If the totality of our experience is truly universal, it might be natural not to attach too much importance to individual events or experiences; however, what benefit (or detriment) might there be to looking beyond what appears to be different between one another, in order to recognize that we're all bound by the same essential existence?
Whoops - went into flake mode, there. These are general concepts though, which one would need to adapt to one's particular understanding or life context in order to properly consider them. But I think it's all worthwhile to consider. There is the illusion of moving forward, while we move around and interact with others over time. It is largely an illusion, though; we're still just here, being.

cee dropped some good lines recently, as usual. She gets into this unfolding of formlessless in a pure, advaitan way.
