Freedom and love
November 19, 1967

Attention implies care, to look with care at one's own life, one's way of thinking and activity. You cannot care if there is no affection.

Without freedom, total freedom, there can be no love. A serious man is committed to these two things only and to nothing else.

A mind that is not free, that is tethered to a belief, an ambition, a family, or to some petty god of its own invention, such a mind can never understand the extraordinary beauty or love that comes out of freedom.

To look, to see and to listen is only possible when there is freedom from thoughts, emotions, condemnations and judgements.

Q: Is choiceless awareness possible in the activities of daily life: in the office, at home, when you are by yourself or when you are talking?
