	Description:		Episode Description: In this episode, John Dunne explores how our rigid concepts of reality breed conflict and separation based in confusion. John begins by looking at the motives and methods different schools of meditation take to address the issue of suffering and liberation. John quotes Dharmakirti when he says, “Only by addressing our own suffering can we learn to help others.” John shows how by fusing our thoughts with reality we erroneously see thoughts as reality. When our thoughts are viewed as reality that is when the “us and them” are created. In recognizing that falsity, separation dissolves and connections can be made. *To help keep these podcasts freely available, we hope you will consider making a suggested donation of $25 to our* Dharma Podcast Fund.
