    About this series

    Is it possible to end the thousand yesterdays? - 13 November 1968

    • Living together amicably, creatively, in complete relationship with one another

    – if that is what is essential then we need not only a different kind of mind but

    also a different quality of affection, love.

    • What is the function of a religious mind?

    • Our struggle in life is dualistic: good and bad, right and wrong, holy and unholy,

    the ideal and the fact. There is only the fact, not the ideal.

    • Is it possible to look at life as though you are looking for the first time?

    • What is the content of the unconscious? It is the racial residue, the traditional,

    the family, the personal. It is as trivial as the conscious mind.

    • Q: It seems to me that the ‘I’, the ego only exists in relation to other things.

    Could you comment on this?

    • The impossible becomes possible only when you discard the impossibility of it.

    To find out anything you must go beyond the impossible.

    • Q: What do you mean by meditation?

    • There is no ‘how’.

      Freedom of choice is not freedom - 11 November 1968 • What do we mean by free will? Is there such thing? • Is choice ever necessary? • Freedom exists only when I perceive very clearly, when the mind sees things as they are. • Q: Is it possible to be free in society? • Q: Is love the absence of hate? • To find out what truth is you must be free of propaganda: the propaganda of the Church, the propaganda of literature, propaganda of tradition, so that you see things clearly for yourself.

      Learning is action - 12 November 1968 • Our education is concerned with the accumulation of knowledge.Very few of us are capable of living a life without the influence of specialists. • What is the point of going to a university, getting a degree and disappearing into the vast structure of society? • Q: How shall we approach the idea of study? • If you express from something already accumulated it is a deadly bore, but if you are all the time watching, not only yourself but the world, you are learning. • Q: You say that a mantra is an escape. Do you think that people use drugs as an escape or because they want to become closer? • When I observe myself I cannot learn if I condemn what I find. • We observe through our imagination, through our image, through our knowledge.
