Goodness shows itself in behaviour and action and in relationship. Generally our daily behaviour is based on either the following of certain patterns – mechanical and therefore superficial – or according to very carefully thought-out motive, based on reward or punishment. So our behaviour, consciously or unconsciously, is calculated. This is not good behaviour. When one realizes this, not merely intellectually or by putting words together, then good behaviour comes out of negating what it is not.
The Whole Movement of Life is Learning, chapter 2: Freedom is essential for the beauty of goodness
The cosmos: According to Bruce all human brains are damaged from the beginning of all human life. Alleging, positing for decades, that all reforms and tyrannies are from damaged brains and all human beings except himself have damaged brains . Is this a serious theory from science or another theory thought invented that supports the religious theories that…

In considering marriage: We are trying to understand the problem of marriage, in which is implied sexual relationship, love, companionship, communion. Obviously if there is no love, marriage becomes a disgrace, does it not? Then it becomes mere gratification. To love is one of the most difficult things, is it not? Love can come into being, can exist only…

The Door to Understanding: You cannot wipe away fear without understanding, without actually seeing into the nature of time, which means thought, which means word. From that arises the question: Is there a thought without word, is there a thinking without the word which is memory? Sir, without seeing the nature of the mind, the movement of the mind, the…

Can we meet the new Year with an acknowledgement that traditionally meeting the new, with the old ways is stultifying all of us who do. Meanwhile the world races ahead into the future and we get left behind with an old habit riddled mind? Can we see that together too? Every day, in every year is a day, that has never been. What approach to that reality…

Can you and I dig into this, so that we together have this insight by understanding each other in a way that brings about a change? That is, we are experiencing this understanding, this enlightenment, that an understanding of reality and truth may open up. Some may find helpful discussions that Krishnamurti and Bohm had in Gstaad, 1975, also the book Truth and Actuality. Continue

This discussion should include some research into what the hell "THE NEW WORLD ORDER" is and how and to what degree we are to prepair to be leaders of it. I mean I would want to know what it actually is, or at least try to findout. The New World Order has long been thought of as a conspiracy theory peddled by anti-government, religious extremists, which mainly belong to the Republican party. A new world order is by the common definition a one-world government, which critics fear would lead to…Continue

I feel something has gone terribly wrong with our understanding of what science is, what its usefulness is and where it has been misused and become destructive. We can go into the definition science and scientism and what the difference is. Also, it is important to be aware of what we are are being told about science and led to believe about it, verses what it actually is. One individual with apparently great power in government identifies completely with science, "I represent science," he…Continue
