Every Insight You Have Is Born Out of Your Thinking - UG

UG

1. Nature is interested in only two things--to survive and to reproduce one like itself. Anything you superimpose on that, all the cultural input, is responsible for the boredom of man.
2. I think the solution to your real problems is, in any case, not possible for you unless you undergo the sort of biological transformation that has happened to me.
3. You do create me. I don't create you for the simple reason that I don't have any image of myself.
4. All revolutions are nothing but reevaluations of our value systems. You only replace one system with another system.
5. This body is a perfect piece that has been created by nature. In this assemblage of the species of human beings on this planet one being is endowed with the intelligence of an Einstein, another is endowed with the brawn of a Tyson, and someone else is endowed with the beauty of a Marilyn Monroe. I can't conceive any possibility of all the three blooming in one individual--brain, brawn and beauty.
6. Traveling destroys many illusions and creates new illusions for us. I have discovered, to my dismay, if I may put it that way, that human nature is exactly the same whether a person is a Russian, or an American, or someone from somewhere else.
7. We think that thoughts are there inside of us. We think that they are self-generated and spontaneous. What is actually there is what I call a thought-sphere. The thought-sphere is the totality of man's experiences, thoughts, and feelings passed on to us from generation to generation.
8. Boredom is a bottomless pit. As long as you think that there is something more interesting, more purposeful, more meaningful to do than what you are actually doing, you have no way of freeing yourself from boredom.
9. You are not ready to accept the fact that you have to give up. A complete and total surrender. It is a state of hopelessness which says that there is no way out... Any movement in any direction, on any dimension, at any level, is taking you away from yourself. Only if you reject all the other paths can you discover your own path.
10. When belief is not producing the results you expect of that , you introduce what is called faith. That means hope. There is no way you can look at anything without the use of the knowledge that you have of what you are looking at. The talk of intuition and insight is another illusion. Every insight you have is born out of your thinking.
