The Significance Of Life Is Living.

Why Is One A Slave To Thought ? Why Has Thought Become So Important In All Our Lives -thought Being Ideas, Being The Response To The Accumulated Memories In The Brain Cells? Perhaps Many Of You Have Not Even Asked Such A Question Before, Or If You Have You May Have Said, "it's Of Very Little Importance- What Is Important Is Emotion." But I Don't See How You Can Separate The Two. If Thought Does Not Give Continuity To Feeling, Feeling Dies Very Quickly. So Why In Our Daily Lives, In Our Grinding, Boring, Frightened Lives, Has Thought Taken On Such Inordinate Importance?

Education In The True Sense Is Helping The Individual To Be Mature And Free, To Flower Greatly In Love And Goodness. That Is What We Should Be Interested In, And Not In Shaping The Child According To Some Idealistic Pattern.

It Is Very Easy To Conform To What Your Society Or Your Parents And Teachers Tell You. That Is A Safe And Easy Way Of Existing; But That Is Not Living...to Live Is To Find Out For Yourself What Is True.

Using Another As A Means Of Satisfaction And Security Is Not Love. Love Is Never Security; Love Is A State In Which There Is No Desire To Be Secure; It Is A State Of Vulnerability.

The World Is Not Something Separate From You And Me; The World, Society, Is The Relationship That We Establish Or Seek To Establish Between Each Other. So You And I Are The Problem, And Not The World, Because The World Is The Projection Of Ourselves, And To Understand The World We Must Understand Ourselves. That World Is Not Separate From Us; We Are The World, And Our Problems Are The World's Problems.
