The Art of Being – On Self-Analysis, Self-Awareness and Meditation

The most important step in learning the art of being is to strengthen our capacity for higher consciousness and our ability to think critically and inquisitively when it comes to the mind. This is not primarily a matter of intelligence, education or age, but of character; In particular, it is a matter of remaining personally independent of all kinds of idols and irrational authority, which man has previously achieved. How will this large-scale independence be gained? Here we can only say this: once a person becomes conscious of the vital importance of not being obedient (here I mean internal disobedience, not necessarily outright arrogant and dogmatic disobedience), he becomes very sensitive to small signs of obedience, questions the rationalizations that justify obedience, shows courage and Once he grasps the problem with its vital importance, he discovers that he can find many solutions to the problems on his own.
