To choose rightly, we should strive to be free of personal preferences, superfluous attachments and performed opinions.St.Ignatius of Loyola counseled radical detachment "We should not fix our desires on health or sickness, wealth or poverty, success or failure, a long life or short one."

One who performs his duty without attachment, surrendering the results unto the SupremeLord, is unaffected by sinful action, as the lotus is untouched by water.(Bhagavad Gita 5.10).So detachment plays a vital role in  all the religion and so on.
