The "Crisis " that K refers to, started when "Thinking " replaced SEEING ?? Unless Man Rises ABOVE Thinking, he is Doomed to Suffer??

[@annelbeab8124]

And thinking is centered around a false idea of who we are thought (!) to be: A separates self. That's where the misery starts, the underlying thought ever present in the conditioned and immature state of human kind, which rules how we go about life. In a limited, often very ugly way, "doing all kind of mischief" selling it to ourselves and others as normal.

[@DS-vq9dm]

The mind makes the man. but unfortunately the mind takes man away from reality too.

[@rickleitch1036]

A dry dead video. Very repetitious but doesnt move forward with his point.

Ive not seen many of his videos, but in the ones I have seen, he provides no answers or insight. Maybe I missed it. What he did do though is explain clearly so many of the frustrations and challenges of our experience. That helped. We all face the unknown to some degree, and knowing its unknown does help.

[@fatoufrancescambow5876]

I’d encourage you to listen to « more » or maybe « differently ». Our self-centred activity is known to us but we do not understand why. We have normalised « survival » propaganda and never enquired as to why we « see » ourselves and « our group » differently from « others ». We also never understood a thing about thought, anxiety, fear and normalised the implementation of desire as a « solution ». Seeing that « the observer is the observed » is revolutionary and K. saw it.

[@user-ri8hd4bo8k]

The explanations are the " answer " , seeing it is doing it , there's no thinking about it , ruminating over it over time and coming to a conclusion much later on ... a conclusion is not an answer or solution ... When we hear his explanations , and see that in ourselves and our lives , then the truth is lived ...

[@annelbeab8124]

He asks you to ask. Yourself. To leave room for insight to come. Maybe check out the talks with A.W.Anderson.

[@ricardo22841]

The question then that has to be confronted is , If it's unknown how can you know it, other than to come up with ideas. Killing another human being clearly means being killed, meaning self sabotaging. Totally irrational as it is to kill another for ideological reasons be it belief in nationalism, religion or racism, social divisions and inequalities. Seeing those beliefs and conditions which we have created for what they are will negate the need to kill.

[@kestutisrasimavicius2467]

Yes you missed the answer you ought to find within and not been told, which changes nothing just clutters the mind. He is just provoking the introspection in you, as any good teacher should. Education is from the word educo, meaning "to draw from within". Not to put information in.

[@WingZeroSymphonics]

Yes lol, very much so. But freedom from the known is one which doesn’t lead to an true path, but rather that truth is a pathless land. So its those on a path, ETA somewhere based on psychological time, that are running head on into each other.

[@iceydaywalker9198]

Sadhu, Sadhu, Sadhu... Thank you & much Love to you, K. Thank you for your tireless, genuine, invested concern in humanity. May I have the determination to live true to this Knowledge. *bows*

[@DS-gu4oi]

the ultimate cause is the human desire, from desire is born comparison and competition between men...from the comparison and competition arises the violence...from that the end is the finishing line.

[@Mansour-nt5je]

The question is very topical right now

[@myfemax]

All those who think K is right must unite

[@Zara-um1nx]

This is very true thank you so much ❤❤

[@ThePianist-yt9wo]

How can I observe without the observer who is the past? I can't do anything without the past.

[@t2z.59]

When you really,truthfully acknowledge and understand that the past is limited and life is new every time which is a fact. The past is gone,dead,passed, past.

[@Olga8888]

Look for the observer, and he disappears. Then, what is left?

[@einbed7600]

Then (if I may suggest) you have solved the problem, and nobody else's ideas are necessary. Keep on doing everything according to the past.

[@PrasadJachak]

observe the thoughts of past as they are now arises....so you are in present observng thoughts without indulgence

[@DS-vq9dm]

You can't. You can only be aware of it and that humbles us to the truth beyond reach.
