I just don't quite understand it the idea to reach the higher states is that you to become "detached" right well I have done my best to completely remove any and all feelings thus making myself about as "detached" as I can possibly get.

so why is this not doing anything I mean I am able to think much clearer than I could before as regardless of whatever "feeling" comes up inside of me be sadness or anger ect ect I just ignore it completely as I thought we were supposed to do allow the feelings to surface but simply ignore them and stay focused at all times.

Is there something I am missing here as I don't think I am doing anything wrong REMEMBER I am NOT "burying" the feelings but allowing them to come up and just ignoring them completely isn't that what we are supposed to do?
