Are you being duped by your ego?
I have been duped by my ego. I have fallen back into the “scientific” attitude of thinking I was being the “objective” observer.
I am beginning to realize how telling the story of the "objective" observer of other people’s behavior is an egoic state and does not serve me. One person could not possibly be objective towards the behavior of another. Regardless of what we may think, our views are always filtered by what we think we know about human behavior.
