Essay / Research Paper Abstract
8 pages in length. Mankind's perceived knowledge resides at the foundation of human suffering. The extent to which this is true can be experienced in everyday life as people move from one psychological plane to another without cause to stop and consider how and why they are even here and what might be expected of them on a grander, more esoteric scale. Inherent to man's self-seeking journey is that which becomes distorted, a quest for knowledge that no longer reflects the truth but rather exemplifies how people latch on to what it is they mistakenly think they know. The ultimate consequence of such shortsightedness results in tremendous suffering that humanity has no idea how to abate, much less liberate altogether. Bibliography lists 7 sources.

Throughout the Path we come to understand in depth the causes of others suffering, things which the majority of the world are unaware of, and all because we are
gradually putting our own sufferings to death" (Dave, 2002). II. TRUTH VERSUS UNTRUTH When Locke (1986) comments upon the concept of balance,
he notes that knowledge is the perception of the agreement or disagreement of two ideas. To the philosopher, knowledge seemed to be nothing short of the perception of the
connection of an agreement, or disagreement and repugnancy of any of ones ideas. He indicated that where this perception exists, there is knowledge; however, "though we may fancy, guess,
or believe, yet we always come short of knowledge. For when we know that white is not black, what do we else but perceive, that these two ideas do
