How Should Ignorance & Cognitive Dissonance Be Handled? - Attlas Live S1 E34
Streamed 12/10/2021. On the Path of awakening and Self-realization of the Being, we invariably must deal with two phenomenon which plague this humanity. First and foremost is our own ignorance. We must not deny our lack of knowledge, awareness, experience; the relative uninformed nature of our present level of being. Even if we do believe we already know a great deal, as we press onward, sooner or later we will be forced to confront the second phenomenon: that of cognitive dissonance when faced with new information which contradicts what we already believe we know. How should we handle it? What is behind our discomfort when confronted with the Truth, anyway? What are the ways the mind tries to alleviate that discomfort? Do they inhibit our progress? Does the very desire to end that discomfort sabotage our efforts on The Path? What aspects of our nature should we employ to overcome the suffering of ignorance in the right way?
Since you are likely reading this on YouTube or Facebook, you know there is no shortage of ignorance and cognitive dissonance online. Coping with our own uninformed and/or resistant mind is one thing; dealing with that of others is something else entirely...or is it? Join us as we examine the relationships between hypnosis and ignorance--our own and that of others--the suffering they cause and some practical, useful strategies we can use to get ourselves and others to pull their heads out of the sand.
