Transformation can only take place immediately; the revolution is now, not tomorrow.

Thought comes to an end. Then there is that sense of absolute silence in the brain. All the movement of thought has ended.

Adhere to the Truth rather than to the personality, and take to heart the Truth rather than the authority of another.

Beyond all explanations which a good brain can give, why do we choose the worse and not the better, why hate rather than love, why greed and not generosity, why self-centred activity and not open total action? Why be mean when there are soaring mountains and flashing streams? Why jealousy and not love? Why?
