buddhist quotes

"Brian Perkins said:
This sounds an extraordinary statement to make, but in fact all truth is very ordinary. It is peoples' fantasies of what is true that is so extraordinary. That that we were born and that we face eternal extinction after death is an extraordinary fantasy".




so that we make alot out of everything, and what we believe is true can be more like illusion or fantasy.

this is what i am getting from the buddhist quote.

that we are creating alot of our beliefs, a bit like modern society is created by design, where as basic truths are much more mundane, or not so much created by people.

so not to let the world be too overbearing.
