The human condition: seeking a cure, giving it up; getting the power to overcome the human condition; giving up useless chat ~ God is truth: What is truth? ~ Going into Me (5 mins) ~ Being in between action ~ Fight and argument; living the truth; the mind and the human condition ~ Question: What brought about this condition in the first place? ~ Question: Is there more than one truth?

Can science enlighten us? 'Us' can never be enlightened ~ Going into Me (4 mins) ~ Being and awareness ~ Niceness: are you too nice to be straight? ~ Single woman: she must accept her life as it is now; longing will push away what she wants ~ Walking from left to right: the symbol of human existence ~ Use of the word God and concepts of God; religions and poetry; seeing things straight; the truth detailed for these times

The public is stupid but the people are not ~ Repeating experience; attachment to the experience of love; why did I get my heart broken? ~ Woman: heavy-heartedness; the deep past in her; woman is nothing; gratitude for her life ~ Karma and the trick of Maya; accepting my life as it is ~ Going into Me (5 mins) ~ In the light of the degeneration in the world, isn't God in charge of everything? The answer is in myth; integrity of God

Truth is in myth, not in scientific theory ~ Man and the pursuit of sex ~ Man's responsibility for what he has done in the world and his failure to love woman ~ Studying Zen Buddhism; living Roman Catholicism ~ Buddha and Mara: facing sex ~ Mixing in the world: I love my ordinary man ~ Question: Woman's fear of sex ~ Tension in the body and symbols ~ Pressure on a man of love to participate in sexual jokes at work
