Game!


Here are the rules:

1. Grab the nearest book
2. Open the book to page 123
3. Find the fifth sentence
4. Post the text of the next 3 sentences (#5,6,7) on your blog, along with these instructions.
5. Don't you dare dig for that "cool" or "intellectual" book in your closet! I know you were thinking about it. Just grab what is closest. No cheating.

Is it on experience? Is it on varuious forms of intellectual, emotional, sentimental conclusions? Please, as we are saying, observe, if you do not mind, your own actual relationship with another- actual, not what you think ought to be, not an ideal relationship, but factual, daily, everyday relationship- because that is what we live with, and if we understand that then we can go much further.

- Krishnamurti, On Relationship
