Can we, as human beings, look at the world as we have made it? I wonder if we ever ask ourselves whether we are individuals at all. Our consciousness is made up of our reactions, our beliefs, our faith, all the prejudices that we have, the multiplication of opinions, the fears, the insecurity, the pain, the pleasure, and all the suffering that human beings have borne for thousands of years—all that is our consciousness. Our consciousness is what we are. And in this confusion, this contradiction, can there be creativity? ... So, if thought is not the ground of creation, then what is creation? When does it take place? Surely creation can take place only when thought is silent. ... Science is the movement of knowledge gathering more and more and more. The ‘more’ is the measurement, and thought can be measured because thought is a material process. Knowledge has its own limited insight, its own limited creation, but this brings conflict. We are talking about holistic perception in which the ego, the ‘me’, the personality, does not enter at all. Then only is there this thing called creativity. That is it.
