"We don't see what is there, and what we do see is not there"
Geshe Gelek Chodha
In Buddhist philosophy and psychology all problems arise as a result of just one cause: not knowing how things really exist. This "not knowing" (ignorance) both misperceives how things are but then adds its own interpretation. These are "myths" it projects onto everything, every experience, every moment. We will look at several of the most predominant myths that essentially make us less healthy human beings. By knowing, first, that we are even hypnotized by wrong perception we can learn to integrate correct perception and develop a continual path of fulfillment."
