Lord Buddha

Through restrained effort, earnestness, discipline, and self-control, a wise person can create a sense of inner strength that cannot be overwhelmed by challenges.

A wise person should leave their attachment to worldly things and cultivate a sense of inner light and positivity.

Lord Buddha referred to it as attachment. Some scriptures call it ego, while others refer to it as pride.

Lord Buddha established the 'Sangha' or monastic order, giving up worldly life and the comforts of home.

A person's love for themselves, their family, possessions, and position can be described as attachment, which has an enslaving element.
