"Thought is not the instrument of change - 31 July 1974 • Q: How is thought to end completely? • All cultures have given importance to thought. • Is there another instrument besides thought? • Can thought be silent when the mind is observing? • My concern is to observe and this is prevented when there is any movement or flutter of thought. • Attention is given totally and thought does not enter into it. Can I look without thought? • Observe the world, nature, everything, including your own desires without a single movement of thought."
