Episode notes
Perception Is Mind's Rendering
- Our perception is not direct; light bounces off objects and is rendered in the mind as an image.
- What we see is a mental construction based on sensory input and brain processing, not the physical reality itself.
Past Distorts Present Experience
- Disturbing experiences pass through our senses but get filtered and distorted by past memories.
- This filtering causes us to experience a personalized, often biased version of reality.
Resistance Causes Lingering Suffering
- We suffer because we resist and suppress unpleasant past events that cannot be undone.
- Stored emotional energy causes ongoing internal disturbance until truly let go.
