Conflicts are always there, no doubt, in the mind. We need not create them deliberately. They are already there of their own accord, compelling us to look into them and try for their redress. Normally their elimination is our concern, the set purpose of our life. All our efforts are generally directed to this end.
Spirituality or philosophy has the aim of probing into truth and exposing it, whatever and wherever it may be. The seeker has to relentlessly pursue his seeking. The thing sought has to be discovered, understood, to the satisfaction of the seeker as well as seeking.
Seeking knows no stealth, no corruption. In it is the innate pulsation of the unsullied human mind, intrinsic human emotions, the undeniable thirst of man for knowledge and the light it sheds.
What is a conflict, a contradiction?
When two or more options, opposite to each other, are present before the mind and the mind, unable to choose, suffers under their pressure, a conflict or contradiction will result. When the forward urge of the mind is met with a backward thrust of facts from outside, then too a conflict will emerge.
