“What is action which is not fragmentary, which is neither right or wrong, and therefore will not create opposition; an action which is not dualistic – please follow all this – and therefore an action in its very activity does not breed conflict, contradiction. So, first of all, after having put that question to yourself in all seriousness, how are you going to find out? You have to find out. Nobody can give it to you – then it won’t be yours. It won’t be something which you have come upon because you have looked with clarity, and therefore can never be taken away, destroyed, or made into something by circumstances. You know in asking this question, the intellect with all its cunning can find a very convenient, observable, actual fact – what to do. Given all the data, all the circumstances, seeing that every contradictory action breeds conflict and therefore misery, it can say: ‘I will do this’ and make that into a principle, a pattern, a formula according to which it will live. Please follow all this. Then if you live according to that formula, as you have done previously, then you are again breeding contradiction, then you are imitating, following, obeying. Therefore to live according to a formula, to an ideology, to a foreseeable conclusion, is to live a life of adjustment, imitation, conformity and therefore opposition; and when there is opposition, a duality, then there is endless conflict and confusion. Right? So the intellect cannot answer this question, nor can thought. You understand what I mean? Thought, if you have gone into it deeply with yourself, thought is always divided, thought can never bring about a unity of action, thought can bring about an integrated action, and any action that is the outcome of thought through integration will inevitably breed contradictory action.”
