Speaking of Sensitivity/cleaner version

[Guest guest]

Because the odd characters in version Michael posted made

reading it difficult, I have pasted a cleaner version here:

 

 

Because truth, the real god - the real god, not the god

that man has made - does not want a mind that has been

destroyed, petty, shallow, narrow, limited. It needs a

healthy mind to appreciate it; it needs a rich mind -

rich, not with knowledge but with innocence - , a mind

upon which there has never been a scratch of experience, a

mind that is free from time. The gods that you have

invented for your own comforts, accept torture; they

accept a mind that is being made dull. But the real thing

does not want it; it wants a total, complete human being

whose heart is full, rich, clear, capable of intense

feeling, capable of seeing the beauty of a tree, the smile

of a child, and the agony of a woman who has never had a

full meal.

 

You have to have this extraordinary feeling, this

sensitivity to everything - to the animal, to the cat that

walks across the wall, to the squalor, the dirt, the filth

of human beings in poverty, in despair. You have to be

sensitive - which is to feel intensely, not in any

particular direction, which is not an emotion which comes

and goes, but which is to be sensitive with your nerves,

with your eyes, with your body, with your ears, with your

voice. You have to be sensitive completely all the time.

Unless you are so completely sensitive, there is no

intelligence. Intelligence comes with sensitivity and

observation

It only seems so, because you don´t understand it, and interepret it

in a way which makes you feel good about yourself.

If you understood it, you wouldn´t like it at all, it´s dynamite for

self-complacency.
