The Walk of Non-Attachment

[@pontiacmon]

Great quote = I don't want to be normal in a society that is sick. Very insightful!

[@gmsi7d371]

humans are the only slaves on earth ( wage slaves , whatever ) .slaves of the false needs of the capitalist society . they have to sell their lives all the day in boring jobs to pay meaningless bills . animals are financialy free. they are lucky

Message received well. The non-attachment you discuss here is called Ishvara Pranidhana, in Sanskrit. In my training, Ishvara Pranidhana translates to surrender, relinquishing control. The only way to achieve Ishvara Pranidhana is through Svadyhaha, self-awareness. Which you clearly practice successfully. You are on a beautiful and ancient journey Friend. Thank you for bringing us along, I am looking forward to the next video.

You are needed in this world every way you show up or decide to be. I said you were the “walking man” like that song by James Taylor. I met you once in Orlando and you also met my mom and good friend in North Carolina. You touch a lot of people with your existence which is valuable more than any possession.

[@nolanne]

I'm trying to find who I am myself...and your words resonate with me. I just want to be myself, no matter what others think of me...and I decided a few years ago to let people think what they want about me...that doesn't define me ! Since then, I really feel better about myself. I did what is consistent with my values, and being kind to people is not a weakness, wanting to be caring, serving others, collaborating, being honest, not lying to yourself or others. others is a valuable asset and not a weakness! I think we need more people like you, continue your quest for simplicity and rapprochement with nature because we are going to need it in some time and the more people there will be who will also go a long way in this direction, the more chance humanity will have of not becoming extinct.

[@socksandsandalsASMR]

Dear Robin. I hope you succeed in your endeavors. Sending you much love. Thank you for sharing your journey.

Run, Forrest! Run! Sorry, that's what my reaction was the second I saw this video! Love you much, and hope you learn as much as Forrest did as he ran.

[@hypergraphic]

You are such an inspiration. Non attachment is a big goal in Hinduism and other eastern religions. The idea is that to truly reach enlightenment or God realization, you have to let go to your attachments to this world, and move from ego centric living, to being a servant of God, to realizing it was God acting through you the whole time. The cool thing though, is it's not just for monks but for everyone, and there are different paths for different people. You my friend, are clearly following the path of karma yoga. Keep on being the beautiful soul that you are. As Ghandi said: renounce and enjoy.

[@bingbongalong]

Robin thank you so much for sharing your journey, you continue to inspire me to be more free and make our world a better place. It can be so hard just to exist right now, but you really give me hope that a loving new world is only a few steps away for us collectively, if we choose it. I just hope you don't feel pressure to be perfect in your search for non-attachment or mission to be of service. In my experience, perfection isn't possible or real, and the important thing is just moving toward these values while accepting we may never fully arrive at the ideal place. I truly wish you the best and can't wait to see whatever you feel called to share next 💚

Thank you! I love that you’re doing this and will see you through this wonderful endeavor! You are 100% on target in everything you shared and am relieved you’re on the planet to show ppl how to live off the land, and so much you do. You’re an extraordinary, kind, intelligent human being who’s dedicated life to truth and living sustainably, affordable in a time in history when the psychopathic/ parasitic corporations are actively in cahoots to kills us and torture us along the way. Many are still blind to this and I’m so thrilled you’re showing up to do this for humanity. God bless and keep you safe throughout your life. Thank you for all you have done and are still doing to wake up ppl and help them in big and small ways. I’d love to come join and will try to. Sending you love and hugs. Smiling big knowing you’re out there as a genuine human being being themself, unburdening self of secrets or things ppl may and will judge, and letting go of what others think or say. You’re a courageous spiritual warrior in this fallen world, showing us light each time you share. ❤

[@didacmartinez-granado2216]

Hey Rob! Been watching your journey for awhile now. Gone from admiring your gardening and activism to now admiring your decision to do what you want to do in a culture that has no context for what that is. You see, usually when people want to lose themselves and achieve enlightenment, they’ll join a group and practice in an established social construct where there is structure and camaraderie to make that path less painful. I think what you’re planning to do is unique in human history, as the implementation is similar to an eastern saint, but your goal is to affect an audience separate from those values. I would say I believe in you and you can do it, but in the spirit of this new journey of yours, none of that matters! 😅 I’ll be on this journey with you. -from your friend in Spain, Val

[@cbcb102]

In my opinion being dedicated to serve is not a sign of madness. Your method to achieve that dedication is your choice, you don't seem to be harming anyone along the way. Shedding everything to serve is where I would personally draw a limit. I know vagrancy laws have changed but please don't shed too much you might find people don't want to be served by a starkus fellow. Non attachment is a realistic goal. You can wear cloths without being attached they are just a tool to keep warm and be protected. An epic walk, thank you for inviting us for the mile out of 15000. Take care. See you again soon.

[@kriskabin]

In this country of materialism & coveting of things, your example is needed. Good for you! A little book that I consider my Bible, or a book to live by, is "The Soul of an Indian." It's a few of the compiled writings of Ohiyesa, a brilliant Lakota Native American. He, & his grandmother, warned of the "snare" material possessions can have on humans.

Beautifull how all kind of religions come together. From true Christian perspective we call it fully surrender to Christ. Let go of the material world (wich does not excist) and let go of the outcome and your own willpower.

As a child i was bullied, on my work in the hospital and in the town i went living where my husband come from most woman are not so nice or gossip. I have to learn to not be attached to how other people do, talk, treat people. Just be yourself is the most non-attachment what i have had to learn. And is freedom.

Firstly, congratulations on another year in your life, even if it's a little late. ;) The whole point for me is where do you draw the line of what I need and don't, and what I don't need but I still want to have? I want to live in the knowledge that my way of life isn't killing all of the Earth's biodiversity just to satisfy my pleasures, my comfort. I also think that we have to show other people that it is possible to live on much less and still be happy and healthy, thus attracting more individuals to abandon the quest for more, newer, faster, etc. Thanks so much for sharing your journey with us and keep going! ; ) Best wishes all the way from France! ; )

Hello Robin. I really appreciate and respect what you are doing, and truly living the change that you want to see. Well done. I feel compelled to mention something though: I think that even once this trip is done you will still feel attached and not completely free. Why? Because our main attachment is not to anything physical but to our own sense of self. No matter how far we go there we still are. I know that someone of your sincerity and intensity will at some point turn all these efforts internally and find total unassailable Peace through the ultimate detachment to the 'I'-thought. In the meantime, thanks for documenting your beautiful, simple lifestyle. Blessings.

Sheesh.. i have mixed thoughts, i´ve always loved and admired your life´s styel and i totally agree with the journey now... what i am having trouble is with extreme possesionless behavior, at the point of getting rid of your pants, and i dont have any problems with nudity, but i think life is giving the body what it needs in the physical world, and we should use it. Not saying to go to the other side, but finding a balance is the best that i have been able to figure out. I do try to live a simple life like you and try to serve others... and i will keep following you... Best wishes..

[@krissyk9767]

Yeah I like the idea of what he is doing, letting go of personal posessions - but wouldn't you need some clothing? We can make use of items that we need to survive whilst still practicing detachment and non ownership. Even Buddhist monks for example, who own nothing still wear a robe and I think have one bowl for food. Interested to see what happens at the end of the walk.

[@carl8568]

​@@ExitTheMatrixVR That is literally an extreme though. You can call it a false reality, but will you be calm and peaceful if you have been hit by a car or one of your loved ones has died? Unfortunately there is a lack of respect for the 3D realm and our egoic pattern in some spiritual circles. There are multiple levels of reality and people talk the talk like death is nothing. Speak of death after you've had a few.

Could taking a trail like the Pacific Crest trail or a bigger or smaller one be an option ? I'm afraid to take any trail because I am all by myself but I'm sure you would find people who would walk with you portions of it. No matter where you walk- my best wishes for you. You are one of the few good ones out there! 🌸 The Appalachian trail and Camino de Santiago in Spain are on my bucket list... But I'm afraid I will kick the bucket before I can work on my list.😉
