You Can Only Be Afraid Of What

Understanding Of The Self Only Arises In Relationship, In Watching Yourself In Relationship To People, Ideas, And Things; To Trees, The Earth, And The World Around You And Within You. Relationship Is The Mirror In Which The Self Is Revealed. Without Self-knowledge There Is No Basis For Right Thought And Action.

If There Is No Meditation, Then You Are Like A Blind Man In A World Of Great Beauty, Light And Colour.

Not To Know Is The Beginning Of Wisdom.

It Is Only In A Very Quiet Mind That Great Things Are Born; And A Quiet Mind Does Not Come About Through Effort, Through Control, Through Discipline.

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?
