Public Talk 6 Saanen, Switzerland
August 6, 1961

Escapes, explanations, beliefs and hopes bring about sorrow. The fact can never bring sorrow.

It is possible to be totally free from sorrow when the mind no longer seeks explanations but faces the fact.

Can each one of us intelligently, sanely face the fact when someone is dead and one is lonely?

Why does each one of us have sorrow? Is it possible to be rid of sorrow completely?

Sorrow is conflict. Why are we in conflict?

Can the mind live, function, be, without any shelter?

Can the mind face every fact as it arises and never seek escape, facing 'what is' all the time, every minute of the day?

Various questions were asked by the audience at the end of the talk.
