Engage in these short films that prompt reflection and investigation into the complexities of human behavior.

It’s true that our upbringing and environment shape our beliefs and values in ways that go beyond formal education. This can result in unconscious biases that we carry with us throughout our lives. To visualize this, we can think of the human mind as an onion, with layers of conditioning and environment covering up the natural state of the mind at the core. To get to this core, we need to peel back these layers, much like peeling back the layers of an onion. It’s important to note that our intellect operates by drawing inferences based on certain premises, which we often receive from sources like our parents, religion, society, and education. These premises become internalized, making it difficult to challenge the process of inference. However, we can challenge these premises by analyzing them before we start the process of inferencing. In doing so, we can uncover our biases and move closer to our natural state of mind.
