"1. Does self-knowledge come through searching? - 16 July 1949

• What is it that most of us are seeking?

• Does clarity come through searching and trying to find out what others say?

• Can incessant search and longing give you the extraordinary sense of reality or

creative being that comes when you really understand yourself?

• Without knowing your background and the substance of your thought, where

it comes from, surely your search is utterly futile and your action has no

meaning.

• The responsibility for any action depends on ourselves, not on others.

• Q: Do I have to be at any special level of consciousness to understand you?

• Q: The movement of life is experienced in relationship to people and to ideas."
