implicity comes into being when there is freedom from the desire to achieve - 27 August 1949

  • One who is sincere can never be simple because he who is trying to be sincerealways has the desire to pattern or approximate himself to an idea.
  • Self-knowledgecanbediscoveredmorefully,deeply,widely,onlywhenthereispassive awareness, which is not the exertion of will.
  • In the search for self-knowledge we get caught in self-consciousness. Beingcaught we make the thing in which one is caught the most important thing.
  • To go beyond self-consciousness there must be freedom from the desire toachieve a result, because the achievement of a result is what the mind wants.
  • Q: Would you please explain what you mean by dying daily?
  • Q: How does a truth when repeated become a lie? What really is a lie?
  • Q: I think I can help, but whatever I say or do to another is interpreted asinterference and as domineering. Why does this happen to me?
  • Q: What is aloneness? Is it a mystical state?
