“Cut off from innate wisdom, a lost thinker experience isolation, fear and confusion.
This is why there are so many horrible atrocities throughout the world. Newspapers are full of wars, killings, children starving ” – Sydney Bank.

Or as the great anthropologist Gregory Bateson said: “The major problems in the world are the result of the difference between how nature works and the way people think”

And not only major global problems, but also personal problems, burnouts, relationship arguments, parenting, work-related stresses, … are due to a misunderstanding of how our experience is created. That’s what happens on the psychological level.

A deeper confusion on the spiritual level happens with mistakenly identifying as a separate self. A separate self which is disconnected and distinctly different from others and the world.
