Publisher's Summary

  • What makes one control? 14 March 1970. Duration: 97 minutes.
  • 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.

  • 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?

  • 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?
