Change in society is of secondary importance; that will come about naturally, inevitably, when you as a human being bring about the change in yourself.

You can only be afraid of what you think you know.

How do you listen? Do you listen with your projections, through your projection, through your ambitions, desire, fears, anxieties, through hearing only what you want to hear, only what will be satisfactory, what will gratify, what will give comfort, what will for the moment alleviate your suffering? If you listen through the screen of your desires, then you obviously listen to your own voice.

Society is the product of relationship, of yours and mine together. If we change in our relationship, society changes.

You may be ignorant of all the books in the world, and I hope you are, of all the latest theories, but that is not ignorance.

I think one has to understand, not as a theory, not as a speculative, entertaining concept, but rather as an actual fact - that we are the world and the world is us. The world is each one of us; to feel that, to be really committed to it and to nothing else, brings about a feeling of great responsibility and an action that must not be fragmentary, but whole.

I maintain that Truth is a pathless land, and you cannot approach it by any path whatsoever, by any religion, by any sect.
