According to Buddhism, it is the nature of man to misinterpret everything around him and then to mindlessly act on his misinterpretations. He has knowledge, but not understanding. He has accomplished what some consider great things, but does take time to reflect or to know his own mind. Buddhists say he can become enlightened if he so chooses.

In Buddhism, the nature of man is characterized by the concept of "anatta" or "non-self." It teaches that there is no permanent, unchanging essence or soul within a person. Instead, individuals are composed of ever-changing aggregates of body, feelings, perceptions, mental formations, and consciousness. This absence of a fixed self is seen as liberating, offering the potential for personal growth and freedom from suffering.
