We Don’t Understand Ourselves

Image result for Ringu TulkuFrom the Buddhist point of view our suffering originates from the limitations of our ordinary, unenlightened mind.

Firstly, we are unaware of the basic truths of existence. Through ignorance, we have misunderstood our true nature and the nature of reality.

Secondly, confused and easily agitated, we are unable to control our minds.

We do not understand ourselves or our emotions.

—Ringu Tulku
