The Brain is Always Recording Q: Are you sensitive? If I prejudge you, I can't see you directly. Do all the colours in this valley and the sunlit rock on that hill early in the morning all this beauty around you, does it mean something to you? Do you watch very carefully? If you watch very carefully it never becomes routine. Are you thinking while you are watching? Do you watch with your eyes only? Or altogether? When you watch you begin to learn. I am watching those trees and I am also watching myself. If you do that you become tremendously alive, your brain becomes extraordinary, sensitive. Are you sensitive to people, to other people's suffering? What is your relationship to what is happening in the world? What is the use of education?

It Doesn't Matter If You Die For It Q: What is the cause of corruption? Human beings have capacity, some kind of hidden talent. Talent is to paint, to play the violin or the flute, or to be a very good human being. So find out your own talent, not imposed by education, by your parents, by society, but find out something that you have for yourself. Discover your own talent and stick to it, whether you become poor, rich, or successful. But your brain is conditioned by society, so your own talent is destroyed by this pressure. What is the cause of corruption? If you are interested in yourself, in what you want, in what you must be, if you are greedy, envious, harsh, brutal, then there is corruption. The real cause of corruption is inside you. Unless you find that out and change that you will be a corrupt human being. Subtitles: English, Dutch, French, Portuguese, Spanish, Thai, Vietnamese Dubbing: French |

What is the Taste of Fear? Q: What is fear? Are you afraid of something? What do you mean by fear? What is the feeling that you have when you are frightened? And what is the motivation, what starts fear? What is the cause, the root, the basis of it? People have gone to war, killed each other on account of fear. There is division between us. As long as nationalism, racialism, tribalism exists, you are going to kill somebody or somebody will kill you. If you have no nationality, then what do you identify with? Fear is involved in time. Our life is entangled, is concerned with time. The past controls the present and the present is shaping the future. So the future is now being formed. Is there a way of being free of time?

Thinking About Myself All Day Long What is our brain? The brain contains all you have learned, is full of memories. You are always living in a circle; a circle of what you have learned and acquired as information, which becomes knowledge. My brain is full of knowledge: absurdities, imaginations, illusions, and this whole thing is "me". I am all that: fear, pain, suffering, I am all that accumulation. What is the origin, the beginning of thought? Has thought its roots in experience? Why is the brain so occupied with thought? The word is not the actual. Is there a way of thinking without all the memories of the past? Can our mind ever be quiet? Subtitles: English, Spanish, Thai, Vietnamese Dubbing: Italian |

Supreme Intelligence Is to Have No Illusions What is intelligence? There is the outside authority of a government, a policeman, a judge, the pope or a priest. But inwardly, inside the skin there is the authority of one's own experience, one's convictions, opinions. Do you accept that authority? How do you look at things without authority? Now we are going to question, not say it is right or wrong, but enquire, doubt, ask. In enquiring very carefully step by step you will begin to awaken your own intelligence. Where do you accept and where disregard authority? What will you do when the government asks you to become a soldier? Must we kill each other to be secure? Are ideas and ideals illusions? What do you seek security in? In some illusion? Learn the art of questioning, so that you question everything. Subtitles: English, Vietnamese |
