Krishnamurti: A Wholly Different Way of Living

Q: What is responsibility in human relationship?

What is your responsibility for human growth, human culture, human goodness? What is your responsibility to the earth?

When you feel responsible for a child there is a flowering of real affection and care and you don't train him or condition him to kill another for the sake of your country.

Human beings are now conditioned to be irresponsible. What are the serious people going to do with the irresponsible people?

If you show me how irresponsible I am, what responsibility means, you care for me. When there is total responsibility in which freedom and care go together, the mind has no image in relationship.

Krishnamurti: A Wholly Different Way of Living

Q: What does it mean to be serious?

In the word ‘communication’ is implied the art of listening.

Listening demands a quality of attention in which there is a real sense of having an insight as we go along, each second.

Communication implies that we must be at the same level at the same time, with the same intensity, walking together on the same road, thinking together in the same tongue, observing together, sharing together.

Responsibility means total commitment. The world is in a mess and it's my responsibility, living in this world as a human being who has created this mess, to be serious about its resolution.

Krishnamurti: A Wholly Different Way of Living

Q: What place has knowledge in relationship?

There must be freedom from the known, otherwise the known is merely the repetition of the past, the tradition, the image.

The observer is tradition, the past, the conditioned mind that looks at things, at itself, at the world.

When the observer observes he does so with memories, experience, hurts, despairs, hopes, with the background of knowledge.

Whenever man operates with that knowledge in relationships there is division and therefore conflict.

Krishnamurti: A Wholly Different Way of Living

Q: Is there freedom in knowledge?

It is our business as human beings to realize the enormous suffering, misery, confusion in the world. Do we realize with all seriousness our responsibility to the whole of mankind?

Do we see the basic factor that we are the world, that the world is not separate from us?

What place has knowledge, experience in changing the quality of a mind that has become violent, petty, selfish, greedy, ambitious?

What are the limits of knowledge? Can the mind be free from the known, not verbally but actually?
