Happened to pretty much all of my friends on a path ... lost friends, found new ones, lost them again ... can be a lonely road to travel.

« CAN » ? :-) it IS!

Yes, it happens … Vairagya refers to dispassion or non-attachment, where trapped prana (life energy) or emotional blockages demand an "exit" via conscious release, preventing stagnation. This interruption halts reactive cycles, allowing energy to flow freely again, much like clearing a dam in a river. You do not lose out on a friendship, rather a removal of something not calibrated to the requirements (energy resonance) of that moment.

Sounds true.

Bonjour Loïc

In Stoicism, like Epictetus' teachings, others are "not things you control," so use them indifferently for virtue's sake. Buddhist views echo this — no one is truly enemy or friend permanently; all propel enlightenment by revealing attachment's folly.

Modern takes, like "everyone is your friend, everyone is your enemy," frame life as unpredictable training.

Yes, thank you. And I experienced « friends » that I helped turn into enemies at the first occasion as well. Fortunately quite an isolated case.

Prolly (oft) due to a disharmony of the fractalisation of previous energies which weren't calibrated vis-à-vis karma and the likes. Sometimes the bridge connection is forba particular purpose, not lasting.
