I don’t belong to any #country, to any #religion, no #dogma, no #belief. That negation of what is #false, the #nature of #change, is #truth.

Can it completely negate it, put it away? When it does put it away through negation, the nature of change is the positive order. The positive can only come through the negative. I see what nationalism, the division of religions, the separateness belief brings about – all conflict, disorder – I see that actually, feel it in my blood. And I put it away, not verbally but actually in myself.

Disorder cannot be made into order, but the denial of disorder is the nature of change. The very denial is the change. The negation of disorder is the positive nature of change. That is, I see disorder in myself – anger, jealousy, brutality, violence, suspicion, guilt – you know what human beings are – I’m aware of it; the mind is totally aware of all this, which is disorder.

I see the futility of #smoking; not intellectually but #actually, and I drop it, without motive, without saying, ‘I’ll do it tomorrow’ – just let go. If I can see something in a flash and drop it, I will know what to do.

If you imitate the silence which I describe, then you are not silent.
You have to find out for yourself what silence is.
Sit quietly and find out; don’t let somebody else tell you.

When there is #nohate , when there is no fear, when there is no ambition, when there is no self-concern, then there is #love.
Be free from #hate, from #ambition, from #greed.

To see truth or falseness does not demand effort.

We are trying to seek something beyond, something permanent. It requires a great deal of maturity to drop all this. Not in the sense of no sex, no money, no power, but to just understand it and let it go.

The sense of fame, power, position, prestige and being somebody, probably that is the basis of our existence. When we do go beyond all that, if it is ever possible, we either move away from it as a reaction to all of it and withdraw into ourselves, hermetically seal ourselves in ideas or experiences, or in some form or other.

Most of us are interested in #money, #sex and #power. Not mere sex as sex, but all the implications of it: #family, #possessiveness, #domination. We want money that gives us #freedom and #security, a sense of being related. And the sense of power, not only in this world but inwardly, through austerity, control, discipline, a sense of achievement, being somebody, not only today but also tomorrow. Probably that is our make-up. The power to express, to write, pictorially, imaginatively, and allthat
