When the mind is relaxed, no longer making an effort, when it is quiet for just a few seconds, then the problem reveals itself and it is solved. That happens when the mind is still, in the interval between two thoughts, between two responses. In that state of mind, understanding comes.
Jiddu KrishnamurtiEveryone must go through all experiences but they need not go through them all in reality -they can do it vicariously, by imagination.
