beliefs, rituals, with their separations, with their
factions. Human beings have created this. Is
that what is preventing us from being good? Is
it because we believe, or because we are so self-

anxiety, loneliness, wanting to fulfil, wanting to
identify with something or other? Is that what is
preventing a human being from being good? If
those things are preventing us, then they have no
value. If you see that to bring about this quality
of goodness any pressure from any direction—
including your own belief, your own principles,
your own ideals—utterly prevents that goodness
from being, then you will naturally put them aside
without any equivocation, any conflict, because
they are stupid.
