“Meditation is not a withdrawal from life. Meditation is a process of understanding oneself. And, when one begins to understand oneself, not only the conscious but all the hidden parts of oneself as well, then there comes tranquility. Meditation demands constant watchfulness, constant awareness of every word, thought and feeling, which reveals the state of our own being, and as that is arduous, we escape into every kind of conformity, deceptive thing and call it meditation.”

“But there's a sacredness which is not of thought, nor of a feeling resuscitated by thought. It is not recognizable by thought nor can it be utilized by thought. Thought cannot formulate it. But there's a sacredness, untouched by any symbol or word. It is not communicable. It is a fact.”

“When I did a therapist education in USA 1984, one of the course leaders – who had given personal and spiritual guidance to thousands of seekers of truth from all over the world, and who I consider to be one of the best spiritual therapists in the world – said that I was going to get enlightened, that I would ”disappear into the silence”.
I did not really understand what he meant then, and it was totally absurd for me when other course participants congratulated me afterwards. The thought that I was going to be enlightened was totally absurd for me. For me enlightenment was something that happened to special and chosen persons like Osho, Buddha, Jesus, Lao-Tzu and Krishnamurti. I did not feel either special or chosen. I did not feel worthy of being enlightened.”

“You know, it is one of the most marvellous things in life to discover something unexpectedly, spontaneously, to come upon something without premeditation, and instantly to see the beauty, the sacredness, the reality of it. But a mind that is seeking and wanting to find is never in that position at all.”

“And another question we are asking is: what is going to happen to humanity, to all of us, when the computer outthinks man in accuracy and rapidity—as the computer experts are saying it will? With the development of the robot, man will only have, perhaps, two hours of work a day. This may be going to happen within the foreseeable future. Then what will man do? Is he going to be absorbed in the field of entertainment? That is already taking place: sports are becoming more important; there is the watching of television; and there are the varieties of religious entertainment. Or is he going to turn inwardly, which is not an entertainment but something which demands great capacity of observation, examination and non-personal perception? These are the two possibilities. The basic content of our human consciousness is the pursuit of pleasure and the avoidance of fear. Is humanity increasingly going to follow entertainment?

“Resim yapıyor musunuz, bilmiyorum. Eğer yapıyorsanız, genelde resim öğretmeni size nasıl resim yapılacağını anlatıyordur. Bir ağacı görüp onu kopyalarsınız. Fakat resim yapmak ağacı görmek demektir; ağaç hakkındaki izlenimlerinizi, onun sizde uyandırdığı izlenimi, yaprakların hareketini, onların arasında esen rüzgarın fısıltısını tuvale veya kağıda geçirmek demektir.”

“Yalnızca ölürken yalnızsınızdır. Hayattayken her zaman ilişki içindesinizdir, babanızla, kardeşinizle, dilenciyle, yol işçisiyle, tahsildarla, tüccarla. Her zaman ilişki içindesiniz ve bu ilişkiyi anlamadığınız için çatışma çıkıyor. Başkalarıyla olan ilişkilerinizi anlasanız çatışma çıkmaz, o zaman yalnız yaşama sorunu ortadan kalkar.”

“...nosotros no somos personas inocentes, hemos tenido miles de experiencias, un millar de años; todo está ahí, en la células cerebrales mismas. El tiempo ha cultivado la agresión, la brutalidad, la violencia, el sentimiento de dominación... ¡Oh!, ¡tantas experiencias! Nuestras mentes no son inocentes, claras, frescas, jóvenes; han sido manchadas, torturadas, distorsionadas.”
