Ending the Self's War with Reality

March 4, 2018 

In this talk, Dharma teacher Fred Eppsteiner explains how our conditioned Self is coloring reality with thoughts, memories, opinions, and emotionality, and that because of this we do not see things clearly. In addition, the Self is constantly dissatisfied with the way it perceives things; it is constantly wanting things to be different than they are. Fred term's this as the Self being at war with reality. He explains that it is this misperceiving and rejecting of reality that are the basis of all of our Self created dramas in life.  Fred goes on to explain that transforming our fundamental view of reality so that we see things clearly is key to transforming our suffering which arises from these fundamental misperceptions.
