REBUTTLE

"-Violence is not merely killing another. It is violence when we use a sharp word, when we make a gesture to brush away a person, when we obey because there is fear. So violence isn't merely organized butchery in the name of God, in the name of society or country. Violence is much more subtle, much deeper, and we are inquiring into the very depths of violence "

A word of violent connotation isn't necessarily a feat of violence. I can call you a fucking dickhead right now, but by no means am I being far more destructive than to have been able to bleed you. They are merely words, and in the end made-up human tools. If you want to be truly subjective, then words, and violence mean nothing to begin with- As everything is playing on the part of human impulse, which is on the level of animal instinct. Violence is easily discernible, because we can be objective to it when we consider the sake of our social integrity. Violence wouldn't be violence if it were happening in the jungle between tribes of undressed chimps, it would simply be nature again.

"-I maintain that Truth is a pathless land, and you cannot approach it by any path whatsoever, by any religion, by any sect. "

I take it this statement is some weird attempt to secure your initial point of discussion as some unmovable natural law in an impenetrable ivory tower of super-intelligence. Boring, and overall meaningless.

"-Tradition becomes our security, and when the mind is secure it is in decay "

There is nothing wrong with security. You might not let yourself be alert to the anxieties of impending danger, or worsening changes, but security brings to many people comfort, and comfort brings with it relax, and with relax comes the peace to be able to let perspectives remain uninterrupted by such fears. Your eyes of the world let windows to the very thoughts of animals.

People of tradition in themselves are never unoccupied to engage the idea of fear, or decay, because they are productive of themselves. They have little issues with the world around them, and it is their traditions that let most of them accept a linear happiness with what they are raised to know. In summation, they are truly in cyclical peace.

"-The constant assertion of belief is an indication of fear "

There is nothing wrong with fear. You yourself are made fearful to have inspired the belief that beliefs with them are born from fear. Fear is a natural part of most every animal's essence. It's a tool to survive, and better perceive the world around it, for better, or for worse.

"-A man who is not afraid is not aggressive, a man who has no sense of fear of any kind is really a free, a peaceful man. "

This is wrong, as any creature without fear can not look toward any feelings of consequence, you said man, though, which doubly represents a danger than any man without fear could in turn be more hurtful to others, and interrupt them aggressively without standings of consequence in his mind. A man without fear is a man without complete conscious. This man can't perceive danger without fear, and a fearless man is a man reckless to his impulses, impulse is a leap of blind faith. Potentially more dangerous than an utterly fearful man.

"-Freedom and love go together. Love is not a reaction. If I love you because you love me, that is mere trade, a thing to be bought in the market; it is not love. To love is not to ask anything in return, not even to feel that you are giving something- and it is only such love that can know freedom. "

Freedom is an abstract, "Freedom" is another made-up human word. We are all truly born free, it is simply the fear of consequence, or generally ignorant happiness which keeps most of us from exercising the true freedom to express any impulse, ideal, and action we choose. Freedom in this point you make is meaningless, it holds no bar of engagement. Freedom itself is such an openly subjective idea it's as free, and ghostly as any cloud in the sky. Love is a reaction, it is itself a reaction based on chemicals, environment, and perceptions. I can love you, if for a moment, if you do something nice for me. Now, whether I like you or not is a more important facet to a long-term component of ever lasting love.

"- If we can really understand the problem, the answer will come out of it, because the answer is not separate from the problem ”

2+2 = 4

"-In oneself lies the whole world and if you know how to look and learn, the door is there and the key is in your hand. Nobody on earth can give you either the key or the door to open, except yourself."

I can teach you that 2+2 = 4! In fact, most people will learn of themselves a perception of the World to help them identify their own answers coupled to what they are taught from those around them, it's a culmination of what we learn, and of what we make of this knowledge ourselves. We might not be let this idea on a silver plate from others, but they could very well help us set the table when we're done in the kitchen.

"-A consistent thinker is a thoughtless person, because he conforms to a pattern; he repeats phrases and thinks in a groove. "

Consistent thinkers master a path of human perspective in the integrity of their vast engagements of experience in whatever linear feeling they are possessed to attach themselves to. Then again, it can be said that any idle person will be thrown between every feeling in the aimless wander of an unoccupied mind. A person can feel elated to whatever truth they have worked towards in endless contemplation. A consistent thinker is a lord of feelings.

"-There is no end to education. It is not that you read a book, pass an examination, and finish with education. The whole of life, from the moment you are born to the moment you die, is a process of learning."

Something most everyone knows in one way, or another.

"-All ideologies are idiotic, whether religious or political, for it is conceptual thinking, the conceptual word, which has so unfortunately divided man. "

You're wrong again, there is nothing threatening about most ideologies, be it religious, or political. In fact, conceptual thinking would work fine if it weren't for still rampant animal impulses which inspire more than almost every motive and desire in us. Be it for "I want more" or "This person makes me feel threatened" every "poor" reaction to the sake of an ideology could have been made all the same but to the beat of a different excuse, as in the end it was all riding on the impulse of an animal instinct we have all yet still to accept of ourselves. We are still very animal, and the true practice of perfect ideology might be a tool of training to help ourselves move forward from this.

If a man could truly turn a cheek to another man without the slightest fraction of hidden remorse to their transgressions, we might all move forward together hand in hand to call one another family, and thus set aside perceptions which might have continued to hold us back from advancing as a civilization. It will be the facets of understanding, reason, and forgiveness which will help us move forward as a people.

"-The description is not the described; I can describe the mountain, but the description is not the mountain, and if you are caught up in the description, as most people are, then you will never see the mountain"

I can see the mountain by the virtue that I can describe the mountain of it's geography, and possibly it's history. Where are you even going with this statement? What does it even mean? It sounds like a poor attempt to show some deeper understanding of what's truly there, which is simply, a mountain- And that in itself could be the deepest understanding of all. To know truly that there is only the mountain there.

"-The moment you have in your heart this extraordinary thing called love and feel the depth, the delight, the ecstasy of it, you will discover that for you the world is transformed. "

You will discover that YOU are transformed. The world around you only changes to the rhythm of a cyclical beat unchanged, if simply challenging to our short understandings. 

"-It is no measure of health to be well adjusted to a profoundly sick society. "

That's just your own fearful belief, imagine if our society were a jungle somewhere, or desert plains. We are all the animals. We are acting no different truthfully than the animals do, and it won't be until we've grown up a little more as a species that we'll probably abandon the notion that "We are sick" when we're actually just working naturally to the pace of any of our other cousins on the planet.

The only difference is that we talk, and dress funny, and try to cheat death more often than they do really
