‘Relationship, if we allow it, can be a process of self-revelation; but, since we do not allow it, relationship becomes merely a gratifying activity. As long as the mind uses relationship for its own security, that relationship is bound to create confusion and antagonism.’

This week’s podcast has two sections. The first extract (2m 14s) is from Krishnamurti’s first talk in Ojai 1973, titled ‘A life in which there is no conflict in relationship’.

The second extract (1h 2m 55s) is from the second talk in Ojai 1949, titled ‘Right relationship’.

 Each weekly episode in this season of the Krishnamurti podcast is based on a major theme of the philosopher’s talks, such as freedom, self-knowledge, beauty, intelligence and meditation. Extracts from our archives have been carefully selected to represent Krishnamurti’s different approaches to each of these universal and timelessly relevant themes.
