But detached and unattached are the same thing, so how can both the warrior and Zen Buddhist be spoken of in the same way and yet the stipulation is they are approaching things differently?-Wei
This is the question yes?
Detached and Unattached are two different things imo. Detached connotes that one was attached at one time then de-tached (through avoidance). Unattached connotes that there never was an attachment. True warriors through the process of recapitulation are not only detached (having the remnants of once being attached) but unattached (no remnant left). This brings a whole other way of dealing with and approaching things.
