The second recording from a four-part online workshop taking a journey through Freedom from the Known. The book was edited by Mary Lutyens from a selection of talks from the years 1963 to 1967 to produce what she called a ‘Krishnamurti primer’. The title, which was K’s idea, is a key aspect of his approach to human freedom and wholeness.

Our inquiry will take us sequentially through the sixteen chapters (i.e., four chapters per session) in the book. In our four meetings we will be covering, in broad strokes, the fields of awareness and self-knowledge, the issue of conflict and violence in relationship, the conditioned structure of thought and consciousness, and the nature of meditation and the religious mind. None of these aspects are separate from each other but continuously and inherently interwoven. Naturally, each of them subsumes many other issues that we do our best to include.
