Selfish? Perhaps, I won't deny it. But it is debatable if every action we do is selfish, that nothing we do is 100% for another person. This is basic philosophy as well. Psychological Egoism.
Whether or not you believe that, of course, is key. Bliss may be the ultimate goal of selfish people, however, if there are no selfless acts, then everyone is striving towards bliss--in one form or another.
Of course, this is all a moot point, because there is no possible way to "unlearn" what we already know....and even if we could, we'd re-learn it through other means--it's not possible in this modern world.
