And still further, it separates the environment, which it calls society, into classes, races and economic, national and geographic groups. Here we have a very complex situation, the inner dividing itself into compartments and further separating itself from its environment. But if it is a real problem then we can go into it deeply. Is this really a problem to you or are you inventing it in order to have a good discussion? If it is for a discussion then it has no real content. Krishnamurti: You seem to be carried away by your own words. Here is a problem so confusing, so contradictory, so vast that the intellect invents an outside agency called God to bring them together, and this further complicates the whole business. So these two contradictory things within him are further in opposition to the third which appears to be outside himself. And added to these two things within man there is a third which is his changing environment. To bring them together so that man can act as a total entity has always been one of the principle aims of life.
These two driving forces in life are often so contradictory that they seem to tear apart the very fabric of our being.
Questioner: Why is it that man has divided his being into different compartments - the intellect and the emotions? Each seems to exist independently of the other.
