Summary
If we do not observe the world carefully, we have no criteria by which to judge when we turn inwardly.
Why have we given such extraordinary importance to thought?
Thinking is the beginning of memory; without memory there is no thinking.
We are a mass of collective remembrance of things past. We are functioning psychologically on memory as the ‘me’ and the ‘you’.
Is there knowledge about oneself? Do we know ourselves?
Are you individual?
Is it possible to be utterly free from all the content of our consciousness?
What is it that is hurt? Is it the image you have about yourself?
What is the capacity of a brain which is functioning holistically?
Is it possible to live without a single conflict?
