Some books change your entire perspective and give you a new leash on life.

There are several books that have done that for me, but none have had as profound of an impact as #WhyBuddhismIsTrue by @robertwrighter

1. Natural selection did not design your mind to see the world clearly. It designed your mind to have perceptions and beliefs that would help take care of your genes.
2. Natural selection (like the robot overlords from the matrix) engineered the delusions that control us and built them into our brains. Natural selection perpetrated the delusion in order to get us to adhere to its agenda - the agenda being to get genes into the next generation.
