We Are Being Surrendered

The Persuasive Power of Sense Perception

A woman asks how religions have lost the original meanings of their teachings. Rupert responds that it’s due to the persuasive power of sense perception. He compares it to the once-held belief that the earth is flat – such distortions of understanding arise from limitations in our perception. Future generations, he suggests, will look back with disbelief at our current belief in ourselves as separate, temporary beings limited to body and mind.
