In listening to you, I feel that the distinction or space between ideal and practice is illusory.

How does it happen that the deep layers hidden in consciousness can be exposed? Comparison between what is with what has been, and what will be, is the process of fear....

What is the relationship of the brain to the totality of the mind? Fear of not being, fear of isolation, fear of not having pleasure, fear of having no relationship, is the soil from which the stem of contradiction grows. I want to be free of this stem to see what happens if there is no attachment, no detachment, because I am not afraid. Is there a peace with no entity saying, ‘I am peaceful?'

How do I observe greed? Do I observe it as an outsider looking in, or do I observe it without the observer? Without the mind being free, you cannot live in order.

Is there a totally different way of approaching the whole turmoil of life? As long as the centre is creating darkness, and thought is operating in that darkness, there must be disorder, there must be everything as society now is. To move away from that, you must have insight. Insight can only come about when there is a flash which abolishes not only the darkness but the creator of darkness. Human beings have been acting according to one pattern, responding to hatred by hatred and so on. There are those few, perhaps many, who did not.

What is the relationship to society of a man who has insight? What is his action with regard to war and the whole world?

Thought and the brain. Can the brain free itself from all self-delusion? Why has the self become important? Can there be only sensation, thought and no desire? Can desire—which brings illusion, self-deception and all the complications of changing desires—can the root of desire be dissipated? What prevents one from having a real insight? That is, seeing the truth of desire and therefore end it. Is it that we have never asked this question? When there is no desire whatsoever then there is a total revolution, and that will affect the consciousness of man.

Can the intellect, a fragment, ever be serious? Serious in the sense of a sustained observation without any distortion. Control. What is living? How does it happen that one can be completely harmonious? What does awareness mean.

Consciousness, because it is in constant movement, has never found an energy which is not contradictory, which is not produced by desire and thought.

Am I aware of the process of thinking? Can I see that thought is destructive, except where it is essential? Why is it that we don't see something immediately? Do you know when you are thinking? Is the thing that we call thinking thinking at all? Do you think from the background noise when a problem arises? When the mind becomes totally aware of the background, is there thinking when a problem arises? What happens when I am aware of this hum, this noise incessantly going on? Is the background noise different from the observer? How am I to live an everyday life with complete silence?

Can the mind undergo a radical revolution? How do you observe the world? What solves our human problem is observing the whole process of ourselves without judging, condemning, translating or rejecting—just to observe.

Inattention and attention. Observing without the word. What is the function of sleep? Is love a matter of culture, a thing of pleasure and therefore dependency? Attention Leads to Learning—21st March 1970.

A Complete Stillness - 25th August 1965. Is there a single movement that will completely transform my whole way of life? The passion is there, but the perfume doesn’t take place. What am I to do?

To communicate, we must know that the word is not the thing and also be in that state of mind whose quality is attention, care. That can only take place if we are serious. We are the world and the world is us. To bring about a radical transformation, which is so essential in society, there must be radical transformation in ourselves. Analysis of violence does not end violence, nor is violence ended by thinking of non-violence.

The Immeasurable is dedicated to exploring the essential questions of our existence; who we are and where we are going. The intent is to inspire listeners to question assumptions of the mind, offering opportunities to ask deep questions into common life themes that are superficially accepted. We take no ideological positions except to encourage the spirit of inquiry. We aim to provide an in-depth look at dialogue and exploration around Krishnamurti’s teachings. There will be interviews of people who have spent time with Krishnamurti, as well as explorations around the content of his ...

L'enseignement de Krishnamurti repose sur la conviction que les transformations de la société ne peuvent se faire qu'au terme d'une transformation des individus. Critique vis-à-vis des religions et des sectes, Krishnamurti n'aura de cesse de répéter que le bonheur passe par le refus de tout type d'autorité. C'est le sens des multiples conférences qu'il a données pendant des dizaines d'années, partout dans le monde. "Dès l'instant où vous suivez quelqu'un, vous cessez de suivre la Vérité."

The Urgency of Change Krishnamurthy ki sarvadhik chunautipurva pustak hai, jaisa ki 1971 mein London se prakashit iske mool angrezi sankaran ke mukhpristh par ingit kiya gaya tha.

Voici le traité de la seule révolution qui vaille : la libération intérieure. L'homme en cage, prisonnier des dogmatismes et des conformismes de pensée, est une ombre illusoire. De l'exigence spirituelle présente de façon plus ou moins confuse dans chaque être humain, jusqu'à cette authentique libération, nous sommes conviés ici à parcourir toutes les étapes : se connaître soi-même, surmonter la peur, découvrir peu à peu le silence et la plénitude.

Jeevan Ek Anveshan consists of 14 intensive dialogues that Jiddu Krishnamurthy held with his close associates, co-scholars and religious seekers. These dialogues are not viewpoints; neither are they questions or answers. Instead, they form a new genre of communication that have a tentative beginning, deep listening that offers deep insights without offering any quick solutions. These explorations lead to newer and deeper perceptions. This book is invaluable for those who wish to have a deeper understanding of the processes of self-knowing.

A Hindi translation of J. Krishnamurti’s On God - by Sanjeev Kumar Sharma, Vinay Kumar Vaidya and Shakti Kumar - the audiobook is an inquiry into the search for the divine. Can we ever know the unknowable? How do we understand it through our thoughts and experiences? Krishnamurti peels off layers within the eternal quest to know that which is beyond human reality.
