J. Krishnamurti - Washington DC 1985 - Public Talk 1 - In the present is the whole of time
Published 2014-01-07
Summary:
Why are we, after this long evolution, perpetually in conflict?
Being absorbed in a poem, a face, is that beauty?
Why has humanity, each one of us, accepted fear as a way of life?
Why do we live, act on the basis of thought? What is the relationship to time of thought?
Can there be total mutation now, in all our behaviour, way of living, thinking, feeling?
If you had no memory at all, could you think?
Memory arises from knowledge, experience. Is experience different from the experiencer? If there is no experiencer, is there experience?

I went to this with my dad and some of his friends...I was only about 4-5yrs old but I remember seeing him sit on stage and I also remember the sound of his voice. Didn't really understand the things he was saying bc I really didn't know English at that time so it's really good to be able to see this on YouTube.

You can already see how tired he is due to the developing cancer that takes his life not even a year later, yet he is still giving it his all to share his profound knowledge and wisdom pointing people in the right direction. Hats off to J. Krishnamurt the most influental man in the 20th century.

“Beauty is which takes away the self”. Mind boggling statement.

This talk has such profound depth and meaning, that mere mortals like us cannot grasp it in one go. This is to be held, cherished, repeated and felt. This talk has the potential to change the very foundation of life as we understand it

When you feel you are not able to communicate to people around, you listen to him and one gets clarity within our own thinking….

only in retrospect do I realize how powerful his words are! I started reading his books at the end of maybe 1991, because an elderly gentleman came up to me at a tiny new age bookstore, strongly recommending this author. He bought two copies of "Freedom is the First Step." #LifeChanging #TotalBreakthru #NewMind #NewBrain #NewHumanity #GraceGraceGrace

Escuchar a Krishnamurti, es abrir una ventana a la libertad, aire fresco para nuestro ser. Pero…. preferimos estar aislados en nuestro pequeño mundo egocéntrico, porque ello nos da mayor seguridad. ¿Quiénes nos atreveremos a desafiar el individualismo?Gracias por compartir la exposición del maestro. 🙏🏾❤️
