Most Of Us Are Frightened Of Dying

Goodness Has No Opposite. Most Of Us Consider Goodness As The Opposite Of The Bad Or Evil And So Throughout History In Any Culture Goodness Has Been Considered The Other Face Of That Which Is Brutal. So Man Has Always Struggled Against Evil In Order To Be Good; But Goodness Can Never Come Into Being If There Is Any Form Of Violence Or Struggle.

Surely Education Has No Meaning Unless It Helps You Understand The Vast Experience Of Life With All Its Subtleties, With Its Extraordinary Beauty, Its Sorrows And Joys. You May Earn Degrees, You May Have A Series Of Letters After Your Name And Land A Good Job, But Then What? What Is The Point Of It All If In The Process Your Mind Becomes Dull, Weary, Stupid?

In The Search For Reality, Energy Creates Its Own Discipline. But Mere Discipline, Without Full Comprehension Of All This, Has No Meaning, It Is A Most Destructive Thing.

When I Understand Myself, I Understand You, And Out Of That Understanding Comes Love. Love Is The Missing Factor; There Is A Lack Of Affection, Of Warmth In Relationship; And Because We Lack That Love, That Tenderness, That Generosity, That Mercy In Relationship, We Escape Into Mass Action Which Produces Further Confusion, Further Misery. We Fill Our Hearts With Blueprints For World Reform And Do Not Look To That One Resolving Factor Which Is Love.

You May Be Reborn A Thousand Times, But You Can Never Know The Real, For Only That Which Dies, That Which Comes To An End, Can Renew Itself.
