| "Now, is there another way? A way of life which is action, which is relationship, but without conflict, which means without idea. Please listen to this carefully—first see the problem. The word 'problem', what does it mean? It's a challenge. All problems become a challenge—I'm sorry—all challenge becomes a problem, because we don't know how to respond. Here is a problem, which is: the word 'problem' is something that is thrown at you, and you don't know any other way to respond to that problem except the old way. That is, conformity, imitativeness, the repetition, establishing a habit, and from that repetitive, imitative, habitual way of life we act. The habitual way of life is what we call action, and that has brought about untold misery, chaos in the human mind and heart."
