The speaker has repeated several times
What thought is
But each time when we talk about it
You discover something new
Unless you do it together
Not merely listen to what the speaker is saying
We are doing it together
Than you will for yourself discover
The truth
And the significance
And the limitation of thought
Thought has created the problems
Which surround us
And our brains
Are trained
Educated
Conditioned
To solving problems
Please understand this
Thought has created the problems
Like division between nationalities
Though has created the division
And therefore the conflict between various economic structures
Thought has created
Invented
Various religions
And divided them
And therefore there's conflict
And the brain is trained
To solve these conflicts which thought has created
I wonder if you see all this?
Can we go on?
We understand this problem together?
And
Unless we deeply understand
The nature of our thinking
The nature of our reactions
Which part of our thinking
And
Thought dominates our lives
Whatever we do
Whatever action takes place
Thought is behind that action
Every activity
Whether it is sensual activity
Or intellectual activity
Or merely biological physical activity
Thought
Is operating all the time
Biologically
Though centuries
It has been programmed conditioned
The body acts in its own ways
Breathes
But
The brain
Which has evolved through millennia upon millennia
That has been programmed to a certain pattern
Which is obvious
If you are a catholic or a hindu or a budd—or whatever it is
You repeat it over and over again and over again
And
As we asked the other day
What is thought?
Why has thought become so extraordinary important
In our lives?
Is there
An action
Which is not born of thought?
We have to inquire on this
Its not just ask this question and wait for somebody else to answer
No body's going to answer
And if you put the question to yourself
And are serious
In that question
You break the pattern
I'll show you as we go along
The speaker will go into
Thought
Is the movement
Of time
I'll go very carefully into this
Please lets go together in this
Thought
Is the movement of time and space
Which is
Thought is memory
The remembrance of past things
Thought is the activity of knowledge
Knowledge which has been gathered together
Though millions and millions of years
And
Stored
As
Memory in the brain
Please
The speaker is not an expert on the brain
But if you observe your own activity
You will see
Experience is the basis of us
And knowledge is the basis of our lives
And knowledge is never complete
It must always go together
With ignorance
See the importance
Please understand
Knowledge we think is going to solve all our problems
Whether it is the knowledge of the priest
The guru
Or the scientist
Or the philosopher
Or the latest psychiatrist
But we have never
Questioned
Whether knowledge
In itself
Not about something
You understand the difference?
Whether knowledge in itself
Can solve any of our problems
Except perhaps technological problems
So we must go into it
Knowledge is come—
Put to—comes through time
If one has to learn a language
You need time
If you have to learn a skill
You need to have time
If you want to drive a car efficiently
You have to learn about it
That requires time
You have knowledge
How to drive
How to do something skillfully as a carpenter
Or to put together a computer
You must have knowledge
Which means time
That same movement
Which is movement of time
Is brought over to the psychological field
They too will say
I must have time to learn about myself
I must
In order to change myself from what is to what should be
I must have time
The same activity as in the technology world
We've brought over that same movement into the psychological world
You following all this?
Which means that time is a great factor in our lives
Tomorrow
The past
And the future
And the present
So
Time
Is thought
