MA7980T5 - Why does the mind live in concepts?
Madras (Chennai), India - 5 January 1980
Public Talk 5
Summary
Can the human mind be free of concepts?
Is the making of concept an escape from action?
Can you listen and not make a concept but apply?
Is fear the word ‘fear’?
Integrity means saying things that you actually mean.
Time will not solve fear but will complicate the issue.
When you listen completely there is no movement of thought but merely observation.
The mind seeking pleasure is invariably attached to the action that brings pleasure.
Is there time at all psychologically?
Can the brain free itself from its tradition without time?
When there is a clear, total sensory response there is no centre from which you are observing.
Pleasure like fear is the movement of time.
If there is any form of attachment there is no love.
How will you have this flower, the great beauty of love?
