The brain being programmed, or wired, programmed to conflict. It is caught in that pattern. You can see it for yourself. And we are asking if that pattern can be broken immediately, not gradually.
Is it possible for a brain so conditioned to break that conditioning immediately?
This is maybe a theoretical, non-actual question. You may say that’s impossible, it is just a theory, it is just a wish, a desire to be free of this. But if you examine the thing rationally, logically, which is part of our intelligence, time will not solve this conditioning, right? That is the first thing to realise, not tomorrow, there is no psychological tomorrow, I am just saying that implies time. If one sees actually, not verbally, deeply in one’s heart, in one’s mind, in the very, very depths of one’s being, time will not solve this problem.
That means you have already broken the pattern, beginning to see the cracks in the pattern because we have accepted time as a means of unravelling, breaking up this programmed brain. So when you observe clearly that time, under no circumstances, will free the brain from time.
But once you clearly for yourself see absolutely, irrevocably, that time is not a factor then already you begin to see the cracks in the world, in the enclosure of the brain.
Philosophers and scientists have said time is a factor of growth. Biologically, linguistically, technologically, time is necessary, but they have never gone, perhaps some may have, we don’t know, never enquired into the nature of psychological time.
And we are asking if that pattern can be broken.
If one realises that time is a factor of conflict then that very perception is action, decision has taken place, you don’t have to decide, the very perception is the action and decision.
