See the joke

The fact is that still the higher the ideal you set up for somebody to live to the bigger the threat they've got, is that right sir? Because there's more threats to the ideal, more things that might bug him.
Now, what's wrong with experiencing being conscious of this world? Now I have found one interesting phenomena. A person with peace of mind is non vicious, you know, what you would call criminal. That's being vicious. I have found people with peace of mind peaceful to live with. I have found people in conflict, struggle and resistance, now matter how good they're trying to be, to be quite vicious. Have you possibly seen that in your line of work sir? (yes.Hmm? yes) So now are we interested in being good or being conscious? If you are conscious you obviously are  not in conflict, struggle, or resistance. You have peace of mind, hmm? You see being good or being kind and considerate is a by product of being conscious not a destination. It's a by product of peace of mind. We have peace of mind when we see the truth. Now it is peculiar that seeing the truth is being able to see a certain joke.  To see the truth is to see the joke.
When we see the fallacy or the joke in setting ideals, we have seen the truth, because then we ceased to be in a state of conflict, struggle, and resistance. We have seen the joke of the ideal. Now somebody's always layin' one on us, you know, you know what that means don't you? somebody laid one on you,they tie you up. So we get an ideal and we start livin' with it and we don't realize that that is the source of all our difficulty. Now the first ideal that we set up is this first little decision that the whole purpose of living is to be non disturbed by gaining pleasure and escaping pain on all levels. Then other people come along and accentuate that.
