You are this, which does not satisfy, so you want to be that. If there were an understanding of this, would that come into being? Because you do not understand this, you create that, hoping through that to understand or to escape from this.

True understanding is possible only when we are fully conscious of our thought, not as an operative observer on this thought, but completely and without the intervention of a choice.

Most of us are frightened of dying because we don't know what it meant to live.We don't know how to live,therefore we don't know how to die

The society in which we live is the result of our psychological state.

True education is to learn how to think, not what to think. If you know how to think, if you really have that capacity, then you are a free human being-free of dogmas, superstitions, ceremonies-and therefore you can find out what religion is.

It is astonishingly beautiful and interesting, how thought is absent when you have an insight. Thought cannot have an insight.

Without freedom from the past, there is no freedom to all.
