Meditation is the process of understanding your own mind.

We should awaken feelings of respect for each other. In other words, awaken the desire to kill selfishness.

To be is to be related.

A conditioned mind may be inventive; it may think up new ideas, new phrases, new gadgets; it may build a dam, plan a new society, and all the rest of it; but that is not creativity. Creativity is something much more than the mere capacity to acquire a technique. It is because this extraordinary thing called creativity is not in most of us that we are so shallow, empty, insufficient. And only the mind that is free can be creative.

It seems to me that the real problem is the mind itself and not the problem which the mind has created and tries to solve.

Observe, and in that observation there is neither the "observer" nor the "observed" - there is only observation taking place.

Without total freedom, every perception, every objective regard, is twisted. It is only the man who is totally free that can look and understand immediately. Freedom implies really, doesn't it, the total emptying of the mind. To completely empty the whole content of the mind — that is real freedom.
