One is as acquired through learning, from family, friends and teachers, an informal system of philosophy or psychology - culture - that teaches that the person exists as an independent being and so do objects in the world exist as independent "stuff". Through coming into contact with this type of education - mistaken view of life - we learn it and believe it as correct. The second self-object (dualistic) point-of-view is innate and has been with us since the beginning of time. It has travelled with human beings through our evolution and has become a part of how our consciousness (?brain?) has become a patterned function: the known and knower. It is not easy and quite unnatural to overturn this conditioning.
