False distinction - False distinction

Japanese: 虚妄分別 - きょもうぶんべつ
False distinction - False distinction

For example, according to the Vedanta and Sankhya schools of thought that originated from the Upanishads, the world we experience is the result of our ignorance (ignorance) of what our true nature (Atman) is, and is therefore created by our everyday perception (discrimination, delusion). This is basically the same in Buddhism, where the Avatamsaka Sutra's "Mind Only in the Three Realms" and the Yogacara school's "No Realm of Consciousness Only" and "Transformation of Consciousness" also teach that the world is formed by the mental action of "false discrimination," which is the view of the subject-object opposition in everyday life. The world is, so to speak, the product of "ideas."

*Some of the terminology explanations that mention "false discrimination" are listed below.
