So often you\\u2019ll hear me talk about aversion and clinging, two negative mental states from which only negative emotions will arise.

We tend to talk about aversion and clinging because we can readily see these mental states when we experience them.

But there is a third negative mental state that completes what the Buddhist tradition refers to as the three poisons.

And this first poison is the negative mental state that gives way to aversion and clinging.

I\\u2019m talking about the mental state of Delusion.

Simply, this concept of delusion is simply the act of seeing things inaccurately, which I explain in today\\u2019s episode is a habit we cultivate through years of unwitting practice.

One of the most common ways delusion shows up in our lives is in the expectations we carry into most of our experiences.

That\\u2019s what today\\u2019s episode is all about. And I hope you enjoy it!
