The state of not-knowing is intelligence
Two Conversations with Jacob Needleman, Malibu, USA, 1971
Beskrivelse av boken
1. The role of the teacher - 26 March 1971
Duration: 56 minutes
• Q: There is much talk of a spiritual revolution among young people. Do you see
in this very mixed phenomenon any hope of a new flowering for civilisation or
possibility of growth?
• One can go into oneself at tremendous depths and find out everything. To go
into oneself is the problem. Not being able to do it we ask for help.
• If there were no books, no gurus, what would you do?
• Q: You speak against effort, but doesn't the growth and well-being of all sides
of man demand something like hard work of one sort or another?
• Why is there this cult of effort? Why have I to make effort to reach God,
enlightenment or truth?
• Why do we divide energy at all?
• The observer only comes into being when wanting to change 'what is'.
• The state of not-knowing is intelligence.

2. Inner space - 26 March 1971
Duration: 61 minutes
• Is it possible to be free of the centre, so that the centre doesn't create space
around itself and build a wall?
• Can the centre be still or fade away?
• Can consciousness empty itself of its content?
• Is love within the field of consciousness?
• If you don't form an image now, the past images have no place.
• Q: Are there environments which can be conducive to liberation?
• The company of the good doesn't teach me what is good and what is false or
true. I have to see it.
