Your Mind Is Lying to You-And Evolution Programmed It That Way
Picture your brain as a smartphone designed millions of years ago. It runs outdated software optimized for a world that no longer exists-one of scarcity, tribal warfare, and saber-toothed predators. Yet here you are, using this ancient operating system to navigate traffic jams, social media, and existential dread. The result? A constant stream of anxiety about presentations that go fine, cravings for foods that make you sick, and road rage that accomplishes nothing. What if these aren't personal failings but design features? What if an ancient tradition discovered this truth thousands of years before neuroscience caught up? Buddhism isn't asking you to believe in reincarnation or chant mantras-it's offering something far more radical: a clear-eyed diagnosis of why your mind systematically misleads you, and a practical method for seeing through the illusion.
