Questions and Answers

Where is the greatest resistance?… In your head… ..This is not a special case. Most often what refuses most to change is the physical mind – so obstinate, isn’t it, in the conviction of its own competence, ooh!… In the love it has for its own ignorance, its own way of thinking, its own way of seeing, its own way of not knowing.
