WHAT IS ANALYSIS? Analysis is observation, isn’t it?—a form of observation. I watch, and watching myself I say: I have been angry, why have I been angry?—the explanations, the cause, the justifications, all that is part of analysis, which is part of thought, isn’t it?

And analysis takes time. At the end of it I say: that anger was justified or that anger was not justified, therefore I must be watchful next time, I will only get angry when it is justified—righteous anger and unrighteous anger!

So look what is happening. Thought is awakened to anger and watching anger. Then what takes place? The thought is the observer, isn’t it? Then the observer is different from the thing which it observes, his anger. In observing thought and all the activities of thought—out of that observation comes intelligence. This intelligence is the result of observation of the workings of thought.

Now, that intelligence is watching—watching the mind, watching the body, watching the heart. That intelligence says: don’t eat that food—listen to this—because yesterday you had pain, give it up. And because intelligence is in operation, you give it up instantly.
