What does it mean to cooperate - not the word but the spirit of
it? You cannot possibly cooperate with another, with the earth
and its waters, unless you in yourself are harmonious, not
broken up, non contradictory; you cannot cooperate if you
yourself are under strain, pressure, conflict. How can you
cooperate with the universe if you are concerned with yourself,
your problems and your ambitions? There can be no cooperation if
all your activities are self centered and you are occupied with
your own selfishness, with your own secret desires and
pleasures. As long as the intellect with its thoughts dominates
all your actions, obviously there can be no cooperation, for
self-centered thought is partial, narrow and everlastingly
divisive. Cooperation demands great honesty. Honesty has no
motive. Honesty is not some ideal, some faith. Honesty is
clarity - the clear perception of things as they are. Perception
is attention. That very attention throws light with all its
energy on that which is being observed. This light of perception
brings about a transformation of the thing observed. There is no
system through which you learn to cooperate. It is not to be
structured and classified. Its very nature demands that there be
love and that love is not measurable, for when you compare -
which is the essence of measurement - self has entered. Where
self is, love is not.
When the truth of all this is seen and
understood man's responsibility undergoes a radical change not
only towards his immediate environment but also towards all
living things. This total responsibility is love. This love acts
through intelligence. This intelligence is not partial,
individual separate. Love is never partial. Love is the
sacredness of all living things.
We have stated the problem, the cause and now we must find
the solution. Through no effort of his, could man possibly make
it. All this is possible only when your heart is filled with the
Presence. The Presence flows into you through deeksha.
Deeksha would thus help create a new generation of human
beings, with a new outlook, with a new sense of being citizens
of the world, concerned with all the living things of the earth.
It is your grave responsibility to help bring about this
Oneness.
