Detachment is moving your 'self' to the witness of your mind( manas-sAksi)/spectator in you and not the player in you. That is vairagya. That is jnana. Bhakti is the path to this jnana or vairagya.

If your self is aligning with witness of your mind inside, you will be the spectator of everything including your thoughts and actions, in a detached way like a spectator. You will introspect. If your self is aligned with your mind, you will feel all the woes of the player.

Mind will always be sensitive as it controls indriyas. There's no practical way to become a living jadam. The only way is to practice to be the witness. If one uses devotion or bhakti to develop it, that's sattvic bhakti.
