Revolution in you

Questioner: If all individuals were in revolt, don't you think there would be chaos in the world?


"If you respond as a Hindu or a Buddhist, a Christian or a communist, then your response is very limited- which is no response at all. You can respond fully, adequately only if their is no fear in you, only if you don't think as a Hindu , a communist or capitalist, but as a total human being who is trying to solve this problem; and you cannot solve it unless you are in revolt against the whole thing, against the ambitious acquisitiveness on which society is based. When you yourself are not ambitious, not acquisitive, not clinging to your own security- only then can you respond to the challenge and create a new world."

-Krishnamurti
