The
future of the family is gone.
The commune has the future, and only the commune can make you so free that
marriage becomes non-essential. Two persons decide to live together -- they
live together.
They decide to separate -- they separate.
The law does not come into it; the government has nothing to do with it, nor
has society anything to do with it. It is two persons' personal affair! And
they are contributing to the commune for the care of their children.
Even those who don't have children -- they are also contributing to the
commune, because all the children are their children. A feeling of vastness...
every child is loved by the whole commune.... Every person of the age of his
father becomes his uncle; every woman of the age of his mother becomes his
aunt.
We are giving him a bigger, richer experience. And with this richer experience
he will be a man of multidimensional capacities.
Man's liberation is absolutely necessary just as is woman's liberation. And
they both should be together to figure out how they can be free.
There is no need to fight, because anything that comes out of fighting has some
ugliness in it.
The liberation should come out of understanding.
All intelligent men and women should get together, and try to understand the
problems all over the world and how they can be solved.
And I don't see that there are many problems.
There are very few problems ...
which can easily be solved.
