This episode marks the first of a new season of the Krishnamurti podcast. The next 50 episodes, released each week, are based on major themes of Krishnamurti’s teachings, such as freedom, self-knowledge, authority, beauty, death and meditation. Extracts from our extensive archives have been carefully selected to represent Krishnamurti’s different approaches over the years to each of these universal and timelessly relevant themes. 

 

This week’s theme is Listening. Upcoming themes are Images, Passion and Confusion.

 

This week’s podcast has four sections. This first extract (starting at 2:19) is from Krishnamurti’s first talk in Saanen 1962, titled 'The Act of Listening'.

 

The second part (starting at 35:04) is from the sixth talk in Saanen 1983, titled 'In Listening is a Miracle'.

 

The third part (starting at 44:50) is from the fourth talk in Ojai 1977, titled 'The Art of Listening'.

 

The final extract this week (starting at 50:34) is from the ninth talk in Saanen 1965, titled 'You are Listening to Yourself and not to the Speaker'.
