Seminars at Brockwood Park, UK - June 1984 (3-DVD Set)Disc 1: What is thought?Disc 2: Is there an action in which there is no limitation?Disc 3: Can thought come to an end?Can one observe the structure and nature of the brain in oneself, rather than externally?Is it necessary to have a theory or model to see what is actually going on?Why do we divide the brain at all?What is thought? What is thinking?The observer is the past, memory, knowledge, experience. Can I look at something without the past?Psychologically, why should I accumulate? If action is ‘I will do’ or ‘I have done’, it is not action. Action is now. When the observer is the observed there is a radical change in the brain.To change a physical habit is fairly simple but a psychological habit demands much greater energy. I have an insight that going north is futile, and the insight says go east, and I move. There is no interval in this movement.
