“The cry for freedom is a sign of suppression. It will not cease to ring as long as man feels himself captive.

When you have an ideal, you cease to observe, you are then merely approximating the present to the idea, and therefore there is duality, conflict, and all the rest of it.

The mind is simply - aware.” MindIdeasStatesConflictIdealsCeaseObservationAstonishingDuality Author:Jiddu Krishnamurti
