To the Tibetan, the inevitability of suffering and illness is a reflection of the fact that we are born. The Tibetans believe that we "take birth" because we are ignorant of the true nature of reality and that it is this ignorance that is the cause of all suffering and disorder.

Tibetans believe that our false perceptions of the world and its projections actually change the world, which is fundamentally neutral. "In sooth to every man that's born A hatchet grows within his mouth, Wherewith the fool, whene'er he speaks And speaks amiss, doth cut himself . . ."
