Fetters
See Through the Illusion
Free · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
See through the illusion. AI-guided self-inquiry through the ten fetters.
A contemplative app guiding you through the ten fetters of Buddhist psychology. No beliefs required — only honest looking.
THE PATH
The Buddha identified ten fetters (samyojana) — mental patterns that bind us to suffering. This app guides you through each one using AI-powered self-inquiry based on the Liberation Unleashed methodology.
AI-GUIDED INQUIRY
Engage in deep, personalized conversations that point you toward direct experience. Not philosophy or belief — just honest looking at what's actually here.
JOURNAL YOUR INSIGHTS
Capture what you notice after each inquiry session. Writing deepens seeing. Review your journey over time.
WALK TOGETHER, ALONE
See who else is looking right now. Share insights with fellow travelers on the path.
THE TEN FETTERS
1. Self-View (Sakkaya-ditthi) — The belief in a separate experiencer
2. Doubt (Vicikiccha) — Uncertainty about the path
3. Rites & Rituals (Silabbata-paramasa) — Attachment to practices
4. Sensual Desire (Kama-raga) — Craving pleasant experiences
5. Ill Will (Vyapada) — Aversion to unpleasant experiences
6. Desire for Form (Rupa-raga) — Attachment to material existence
7. Desire for Formless (Arupa-raga) — Attachment to subtle states
8. Conceit (Mana) — The sense of "I am"
9. Restlessness (Uddhacca) — Subtle mental agitation
10. Ignorance (Avijja) — Not seeing things as they are
