The role of the teacher - 26 March 1971

  • Q: There is much talk of a spiritual revolution among young people. Do you see in this very mixed phenomenon any hope of a new flowering for civilisation or possibility of growth?
  • One can go into oneself at tremendous depths and find out everything. To go into oneself is the problem. Not being able to do it we ask for help.
  • If there were no books, no gurus, what would you do?
  • Q: You speak against effort, but doesn't the growth and well-being of all sidesof man demand something like hard work of one sort or another?
  • Why is there this cult of effort? Why have I to make effort to reach God,enlightenment or truth?

  • The state of not-knowing is intelligence.
