come to you. Love comes to you, and if society changes, family cannot be. It is possible. A society can be without family, a society can be without husband and wife relationship. Mm?You know hippies? and other.... A society can be without any family. Without any familiar relationship, but a society cannot be without love. Animals are with love, there is no family, but love is there. So love is something that comes by nature, is instinctive. Family is something that comes through intellect.
So, one has to discover in his mind relationships, in his movement through life what is real that comes, or what is unreal that is imposed. If this search goes on, in every walk, in every aspect, then something -- a mind which witnesses -- will be discovered. Because through this discrimination; this is real, this is unreal.... Don't ask any scripture, don't ask any guru. Because if through asking, you cling to some theory, then you will begin to impose. Then you will say, "This is unreal because Geeta says so." It has become nonsense. You have lost the path.
Geeta says so, let it say. What you understand, a very little understanding, is so much valuable than so much great knowledge. Understanding is needed not knowledge. And this understanding comes through day to day movement; go on discovering, go on seeking what you are imposing, what you are finding. This discrimination will create a new force within you. The understanding mind -- that will be created, that will come in force, that will become a living entity.
That mind liberates. That mind by and by becomes a mirror. Then you neither discriminate, neither choose. There is no choice then. The mind knows and acts, and there is no gap between the knowing and the action. And there should not be any gap. The gap, the gulf, between knowing and the action is the most basic difficulty for a seeker. But that comes by and by. And in everything: the most little, the most small, the most trivial; there too, you have to be aware, and seeking and seeking.
Some friend comes to you, you greet him, then let it be known completely to you whether the greeting was authentic, real or just an imposition, just an acting.
