About this listen
- Living with a sustained seriousness. 21 February 1970. Duration: 91 minutes.
- Can the brain operate without recourse to the past? 22 February 1970. Duration: 92 minutes.
Is there self-progress? Conflict. Security. Any form of division within oneself is a source of conflict. Can the brain be quiet?
- What makes one control? 14 March 1970. Duration: 97 minutes.
- Being serious without belief. 15 March 1970. Duration: 77 minutes.
- Attention leads to learning. 21 March 1970. Duration: 93 minutes.
- Fear in consciousness. 22 March 1970. Duration: 89 minutes.
- What is order? 28 March 1970. Duration: 81 minutes.
Order and disorder. Why does the mind accumulate? How do you receive something that is not of the mind?
- How is one to be entirely free of fear? 29 March 1970. Duration: 90 minutes.
Fear. All the escaping and the strengthening of fear comes because we are inattentive. What is sleep?
What does it mean to be serious? Becoming. Why do I compare myself with you or with somebody else? Do I look at people through images?
Violence. Why do you control? Security means to be in a state in which there is no choice at all. The mind has become sensitive because it has observed, not because it has experienced.
Either you see the fact with the past or you see the fact as it is now. The word is of the past.
Can the intellect, a fragment, ever be serious? Serious in the sense of a sustained observation without any distortion. Control. What is living? How does it happen that one can be completely harmonious? What does awareness mean?
Inattention and attention. Observing without the word. What is the function of sleep? Is love a matter of culture, a thing of pleasure and therefore dependency?
How does it happen that the deep layers hidden in consciousness can be exposed? Comparison between what is and what has been and what will be is the process of fear. Can the mind observe without comparison?

Story
The roots of psychological conflict. 1 April 1980. Duration: 82 minutes. Has humanity taken a wrong turn? What is the root of this tremendous inward conflict of humanity? When I am trying to become something, it is a constant battle. Can the brain itself see that it is caught in time and as long as it is moving in that direction conflict is eternal, endless? Can the mind realise, resolve a psychological problem immediately?

Story
Is thought detrimental? 15 August 1965. Duration: 63 minutes. Why does one seek pleasure? Can the mind face only facts and not thought? Why have I never said, 'Thought is poison' to myself? Meeting something one doesn't know, facing something which has no answer. Acting without knowing. What is a state of mind which is silent? Time is detrimental. Are we twisting everything to our core of pleasure?

Story
The role of the teacher. 26 March 1971. Duration: 56 minutes. There is much talk of a spiritual revolution among young people. Do you see in this very mixed phenomenon any hope of a new flowering for civilisation or possibility of growth? One can go into oneself at tremendous depths and find out everything. To go into oneself is the problem. Not being able to do it, we ask for help. If there were no books, no gurus, what would you do?

To learn about freedom, must thought be completely silent? Does insight into freedom take time? Can thinking, however rational, bring about a psychological revolution in us?

Story
Though we have plenty of energy, apparently we lack the drive, enthusiasm, vitality to bring about a change in ourselves. As long as there is fear, there must be violence, aggression, anger, hatred. Thought is the source of fear. Is it possible to live everyday life without thought interfering? Thought is always old. When you worship thought, you are worshipping some thing that is dead.
