What is the operation of thought?

'What is the operation of thought? - 14 July 1974 In the world around us and inside us, is there a relationship between the inner and the outer? Are you free to listen or do you listen with interpretation and prejudices? Do I observe the content of my consciousness as an outsider? Can one observethe content without choice? If you look with eyes that are divided is there not conflict between you andanother? Is division between the observer and the observed? Is it intelligent for thought to create and maintain division while talking aboutpeace? Is there an intelligence which is not cunning and is not the function or result ofthought?Questions from the audience followed the talk.'
