The word 'Vairagya' literally means that
which is opposed to attachment.
Vairagya does not mean that you
should give up everything and retire in to a forest.
Vairagya really means you
should stay where you are,
in whatever station of life you are in,
and understand the subtle nature of things,
while giving up worldly desires.
It means that by using discrimination
you should know what to accept and what to reject.
You should strive to recognise the divinity
in every object you see and enjoy it.
Vairagya is not merely giving up things.
It consists in enjoying, without attachment,
things which were previously enjoyed with attachment.
That is real Vairagya.
That is the mark of a true human being.
