Krishnamurti: Magnitude of the Mind

When we talk about world government, world organisation, world religion, world economy, where would we begin?

Is your mind capable of comprehending the global issue?

As human beings are violent and ambitious, seeking power and position, we create the society in which we live.

Is religion a series of rituals? Is religion to be translated by priests?

What shall we do together to bring about a different kind of education in the world?

We are investigating what fear is. In the very investigation, fear ends.

What is the root of fear? Not your particular fear.

Fear is like a tree with many branches, with all kinds of flowers and fruits.

Can time as thought come to an end, which then does not create fear?

Why does the mind register fear?

Krishnamurti: Magnitude of the Mind

The art of listening to what the book of life is saying.

The book is you; you can’t tell the book what it should reveal; it will reveal everything.

Learning means inquiring into the limits of knowledge and moving away from it.

Disorder exists as long as there is contradiction.

As long as you are acting self-centredly, selfishly, egotistically, personally, narrowing the whole of this vast life into the little ‘me’, you will inevitably create disorder.

The book asks you: is it possible to be completely free of fear?

What is the relationship between time and thought?

Time destroys understanding because understanding is immediate; it is not ‘I will learn to understand’.

Real meditation is to inquire whether time can ever stop.

To inquire into the nature of the ending of time requires a silent mind, a mind that is free to observe, that is not frightened.

Krishnamurti: Magnitude of the Mind

What is the condition of man?

Listening is a great art, one we have not cultivated: to listen completely to another.

To bring about a different society you as a human being who is the rest of mankind must radically change.

Doubt is of great importance, it gives you tremendous energy.

Life is a movement in relationship; you cannot exist without relationship.

What is our present relationship with each other?

To understand image-making common to mankind, one has to go into the question of what is thought, thinking and the nature of thought.

Is it possible to live a daily life without a single image?

The mirror in which you can study yourself is the mirror of relationship.

In watching, listening to yourself carefully without any direction or motive, you begin to read the story of mankind, which is yourself.

Krishnamurti: Thought Can Never Change Man

If religion is divorced from our daily life, it can only create further chaos, confusion and conflict.

Without order in your life, without being totally moral in your daily activity, how can you think of meditating?

By clearly observing the outer you discover the inner, and see it is one movement.

To see clearly you must observe silently.

Meditation is the emptying of the content of consciousness.

Is beauty the total absence of the observer?

Krishnamurti: Thought Can Never Change Man

Is love desire, pleasure, attachment?

Sensation plus thought is desire.

What is dying?

Can you without choice observe the mechanical movement of the brain?

Time has a stop when there is no longer any movement of the stream of fear, conflict, sorrow and confusion.

When death takes place, we are afraid of losing the structure which thought has built as ‘me’.

Krishnamurti: Thought Can Never Change Man

What do we mean by action?

Does thought bring about correct action?

Is there thinking when there is no word?

Can you listen without thinking?

Is biological survival possible when the world is divided?

Will you give up the psychological securities to which you hold?

As long as you are seeking security in illusion or attachment, physical security becomes impossible.

Is there freedom which is not a reaction?

Krishnamurti: Thought Can Never Change Man

What do we mean by action?

Can there be correct action if based on an ideal?

We live in the past, which meets and modifies the present. In this process, action is never complete.

To find correct, accurate, right action, needs care.

Can you look at fragmentation without judgement?

Thought is a fragment and creates fragmentary activity.

Why do human beings behave as they do?

Thought leads to sorrow.

Krishnamurti: Thought Can Never Change Man

Is there a way of living, a non-mechanistic action not based on the movement of thought as time?

The psychological reality in which we live is mechanistic.

Is there is an action that in itself is the flowering of order, free of regret and corruption, that doesn’t leave a residue or create contradiction?

Why does the human mind pursue pleasure?

Action through insight is not mechanistic.

What takes place when you suffer?

Krishnamurti: Thought Can Never Change Man

What is the root cause of fear?

Is time a factor of fear?

The ‘me’ to which we cling is fictitious. Clinging to something non-existent may be the root cause of fear.

Deep-rooted fear is the movement of thought in time, a material process.

Thought has created an artificial structure called the ‘me’ and clings to that fragment.

Thought is itself a fragment.

If you don’t waste energy, and that is only when the observer is the observed, you have immense energy to transform ‘what is’.

Krishnamurti: Thought Can Never Change Man

Why are we being educated?

Can anybody help me to learn about myself?

Can you observe without verbalising?

Why are human beings in conflict?

Is contradiction two opposing desires?

Where there is comparison there must be envy, imitation and the desire to conform to a pattern.

Can you look at the feeling of envy as it arises?

Can you look without conclusion, opinion or judgement?

As long as there is a division between the observer and the observed, there must be conflict.
