Story
What is truth, and what is reality? 18 May 1975. Duration: 70 minutes. What is truth, and what is reality? Anything that thought thinks about or reacts upon or projects - that is reality. And that reality has nothing to do with truth. The art of seeing is to place reality where it is and not move that in order to get truth. You can't get truth. How am I to empty that consciousness and yet retain knowledge - otherwise I couldn't function - and reach a state which will comprehend reality?

Is thought detrimental? 15 August 1965. Duration: 63 minutes. Why does one seek pleasure? Can the mind face only facts and not thought? Why have I never said, 'Thought is poison' to myself? Meeting something one doesn't know, facing something which has no answer. Acting without knowing. What is a state of mind which is silent? Time is detrimental. Are we twisting everything to our core of pleasure?

If we had no belief what would happen to us? - 23 July 1949 • Without self-knowledge we cannot go beyond the self-projected illusions of the mind. • It’s only in relationship that one can know oneself as one is. • A mind that is filled with beliefs, dogmas, assertions and quotations is an un creative, repetitive mind. • Can we look at ourselves without beliefs? • A mind that is quiet because it understands fear and understands itself is creative. • Q: Our mind knows only the known. What is it in us that drives us to find the unknown, reality, or God? J.

Do you see in this very mixed phenomenon any hope of a new flowering for civilisation or possibility of growth? One can go into oneself at tremendous depths and find out everything.

Can the mind undergo a radical revolution?
How do you observe the world? What solves our human problem is observing the whole process of ourselves without judging, condemning, translating or rejecting - just to observe.
Question topics following the talk include: being disturbed in order to know, being confused and transcendental meditation.
We have accepted violence as a way of life, and yet at the same time we want peace. Can one live a life in which there is no comparison at all? Pleasure is the continuance of an experience that is never finished. We are living in the past. How can the conscious mind investigate the total hidden mind?
Can thought ever solve the whole problem of existence? What is the function of thought? Why has sex become so extraordinarily important?
Chastity is the freedom from all image. Is love desire? A new thing can take place only when there is an ending of the old.
Question topics following the talk include: getting better, controlling thought, the process of invention, vegetarianism and images.
Inattention and attention. Observing without the word. What is the function of sleep? Is love a matter of culture, a thing of pleasure and therefore dependency?
How does it happen that the deep layers hidden in consciousness can be exposed? Comparison between what is with what has been and what will be is the process of fear.
Can the mind observe without comparison?
Order and disorder
Why does the mind accumulate? How do you receive something that is not of the mind?
Fear. All the escaping and the strengthening of fear comes because we are inattentive. What is sleep?
