we will explore the concept of "avidya," or "not seeing," which refers to the blind spots in our understanding or perception that can lead to negative outcomes in our interpersonal relationships. We will look at how we often view ourselves as separate and disconnected from others, failing to recognize the ways in which we are interconnected and interdependent. We will examine the concept of "interbeing," which suggests that everything we experience is interconnected and dependent on other things for its existence. We will also explore the cost of believing ourselves to be separate, such as increased isolation and loneliness, a lack of empathy, and environmental degradation. Finally, we will look at how we can bring attention to our self-centeredness and lack of self-awareness in order to make a difference in the world.
