It is important first to realise – not intellectually or verbally but actually – that one is totally confused. This is an obvious fact. Read any paper, any magazine, go to any church, listen to any political talk – it is really quite despairing to see how terribly we are confused. Realising that, never to escape; never to escape from that actual fact. Then you will begin to discover how you look at the fact, the fact of what you are actually – not what you think you should be, which is again such an escape. Then you will discover for yourself that you are looking at it as an observer and the observed, and creating a space and therefore inviting in that space infinite conflict and contradiction. When you realise all this, your mind is then in a state of meditation.
