| read some of your thoughts. Do not say change does not exist. It is so wrong. The | 95 SELF-ALIENATION AND THE WAY BACK TO THE REAL SELF |
| retrospectively. But the very essence of life is change. If there is no change, there is no | 95 SELF-ALIENATION AND THE WAY BACK TO THE REAL SELF |
| of life is change. If there is no change, there is no life. If you remain static | 95 SELF-ALIENATION AND THE WAY BACK TO THE REAL SELF |

| the human struggle. If you find growth and change pleasurable because of past development that has already | 95 SELF-ALIENATION AND THE WAY BACK TO THE REAL SELF |
| flux. At the same time your resistance to change and growth where the hard work of facing | 95 SELF-ALIENATION AND THE WAY BACK TO THE REAL SELF |
| where the hard work of facing and initiating change still has to take place causes you to | 95 SELF-ALIENATION AND THE WAY BACK TO THE REAL SELF |
| by fuller and fuller awareness of reality, growth, change, on all levels of your being. So do | 95 SELF-ALIENATION AND THE WAY BACK TO THE REAL SELF |

| only thing that is possible, I might say. Change is the only organic, natural process of creation | 95 SELF-ALIENATION AND THE WAY BACK TO THE REAL SELF |
| grow, so that eventually a real and noticeable change occurs. Let me say one more thing about | 95 SELF-ALIENATION AND THE WAY BACK TO THE REAL SELF |
| you reach the point when you want to change a pattern because you have made certain recognitions | 95 SELF-ALIENATION AND THE WAY BACK TO THE REAL SELF |
| in the old way and you want to change, yet in doing the right act you don't | 95 SELF-ALIENATION AND THE WAY BACK TO THE REAL SELF |
| phase of search in this area and therefore change, with its necessary discipline, is premature. Look only | 95 SELF-ALIENATION AND THE WAY BACK TO THE REAL SELF |
| is premature. Look only for further awareness here. Change may already have occurred in another area, but | 95 SELF-ALIENATION AND THE WAY BACK TO THE REAL SELF |
| this respect. I repeat, such search constantly creates change in your emotional, mental, spiritual and even physical | 95 SELF-ALIENATION AND THE WAY BACK TO THE REAL SELF |
| candor. But this is the first type of change I discussed, and not the second which requires | 95 SELF-ALIENATION AND THE WAY BACK TO THE REAL SELF |
| a feeling of the real self. When you change inner direction by no longer feeling dependent on | 96 QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS; COMMENTS ON LAZINESS AS SYMPTOM OF SELF-ALIENATION |

| and therefore it is difficult to risk the change. You do not want to stand on your | 96 QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS; COMMENTS ON LAZINESS AS SYMPTOM OF SELF-ALIENATION |

| you can never really be flexible enough to change. Your haste, and your shame for not being | 97 PERFECTIONISM OBSTRUCTS HAPPINESS -- MANIPULATION OF EMOTIONS |
| create a rigid wall that makes growth and change impossible. The trouble is that people are so | 97 PERFECTIONISM OBSTRUCTS HAPPINESS -- MANIPULATION OF EMOTIONS |
