people tend to always want certain things to be different,a tad too warm ,cold, rainy ,whatever...they judge....but everything is constantly changing anyway ...so why bother....same is true for the sensory perception....with the eyes receiving 40 billion impressions per second...while consciously aware we are of only 50 per second.the rest going directly subconscious...still we are proud of our awareness,what a joke;)
i think this may be as well be a kind of protective mechanism...being truly open would shut down this imagined system,nicely described by u.g. krishnamurti in his calamity experience,his world went upside down,a hell of a ride...but thereafter he smiled with us about our helplessness,humility...bodhicitta...but clearly stating the trap,the conondrum and paradoxy we face is real,for us to see...
