Episode notes
INSIGHT

Perception Is A Distorted Mirror

  • You never see the world as it is; you see it as reflected in the mirror of your mind.
  • That mirror is biased by identifications and prejudices, so perception is always distorted.
INSIGHT

Life Often Passes As Reflections

  • Most people spend life watching reflections and die bewildered because they never tasted their true being.
  • Only extreme, nonthinking situations sometimes break the mirror and produce vivid experience.
ADVICE

Train Vision By Counting Triangles

  • Practice seeing forms geometrically by breaking the body into triangles to sharpen attention and imagination.
  • Increase the number of triangles progressively to train the mind to hold vivid, detailed images.
