Most of our lives are pretty ugly, sordid, miserable and petty. Our existence is a series of conflicts, contradictions, a process of struggle and pain, with fleeting joy and momentary satisfaction. We are bound by so many adjustments, conformities, patterns, and there is never a moment of freedom, never a sense of complete being. There is always frustration because there is always a seeking to fulfil! We have no tranquillity of mind and are always tortured by various demands. To understand all these problems and go beyond them, it is surely necessary to understand the nature of knowledge and the process of the mind.

If we can understand the problem of frustration, we shall have a mentality that is not merely intellectual but an integrated activity. Our religions, our social activities are based on frustration and sorrow. If we can go into this question of frustration, which is really the problem of duality, we may be able, for ourselves as individuals, to come to a creativity that is not a mere capacity or gift but a totally different action.
