Order cannot be cultivated

Order is virtue. And order isn’t a thing to be cultivated; you can’t say “I will be orderly”, “I will do this and I won’t do that”—then you are merely disciplining yourself, becoming more and more rigid, mechanical. Such a mind is totally incapable of coming upon this beauty that has no name, no expression. Order, like virtue, cannot be cultivated—if you cultivate humility you are obviously not humble; you can cultivate vanity, but to cultivate humility is not possible any more than to cultivate love. So order which is virtue cannot be practised. All that one can do is to see this total disorder within and outside oneself—see it! You can see this total disorder instantly and that is the only thing that matters—to see it instantly.
