Summary

What is the function of thought?

Can the mind see the fact that thought will always breed frustration?

Function is necessary, but function with status, position and power must breed frustration.

Without frustration thought says to itself, ‘I am not seeking. I don’t want anything.’

If there is no thought, what happens?

The very perception of the limitation of thought is the act of opening the door, rather than thought opening the door.

To function without prestige, without frustration, that itself is an extraordinary state, meaning to function without self-centred activity.
