”Everyday Pack Mentality”

Herd, mob or pack mentality describes how people can be influenced by their peers to adopt certain behaviors on a largely emotional, rather than rational, basis. Today on The Backyard Buddhist Podcast Ronn Pawo McLane and Co-host Danny Hobart are talking about this as an active element in our daily experience and pack mentality from a practical aspect. The wisdom of self-inquiry leads us to wise and complete action by having a wise and complete view and understanding of the truth. Standing in your own confidence of having walked the road of introspection is unshakable. Unskillful are those who stand on the opinions of others which lead us to misdeeds and negative karma. Skillful are those who act on the reality of truth for the welfare and happiness of all.
