It is very liberating to note, through meditation practice, the abysmal gap between the content of the reality occupied by individuals in our mind and the out-of-mind reality of these individuals.
To what extent the exercise of the mind reduces, amputates, distorts, what makes the reality of an individual, his depth, it is from this representation manufactured in our mind that we form our opinions about him, her… that we love, reject, think we understand, from there, that we interact, in a closed bubble, with this representation and create,
always more representations bubble up by this friction.
His questions, uncertainties, we know nothing about them,
Of their changes over time and his fluctuations of being through the situations that others encounter, the states they go through, we know nothing.
Let alone everything that this individual ignores about himself and everything that infinitely surpasses him,
Let us now put our narrow representation of him in relation to all that and see how sad, erroneous, fictitious, illusory it is,
Now, we can abandon it.

And replace it with… ?
