Summary
What is the future of mankind when the computer can outdo everything that man has done or will do?
Can fear possibly come to an end, or will we continue with it for the rest of our life?
Why is there contradiction in human beings?
Any form of persuasion, reward or punishment is violence.
Is there a mind which cannot be persuaded, is not obstinate but is a mind that sees very clearly?
Can we be free from violence and hatred?
Psychologically, what is the process of being hurt?
In fear is involved desire, time, the past impinging on the present, and the sense of wanting to go beyond fear.
Thought and desire are like two horses running together.
Hunger for food is natural. Ambition, hunger for position and status, is that natural?
Is there psychological time at all, or has thought as hope created time?
