This channel is managed by the Krishnamurti Foundation Trust​​, UK​, and by the Krishnamurti Foundation of America.

The role of the foundations was described by Krishnamurti when he said,​ ​'The foundations will see to it that these teachings are kept whole, are not distorted, are not made corrupt. They will not give rise to any sectarian spirit in their activities... nor create any kind of place of worship around the teachings or the person.​'​

We maintain extensive archives of Krishnamurti's original works and all four Krishnamurti foundations are actively engaged in the publication of material in various forms.

Our videos contain thousands of subtitles in more than 25 languages, translated by volunteers from all over the world. If you would like to help us with translating subtitles, please contact us at [email protected]

    I am 18years of age now , I don't know how I am here but I think I found something precious ....
  • @johnsouza001
    This is how a conversation should happen between 2 people. In this world, everyone shouts and no one listens. We forget how to listen with respect and with full awareness of the other person's view.
  • Everyone should read at least one of Krishnamurti's books and really try to grasp what he's trying to convey in his lectures. If you're very religious, into enlightenment, consciousness, spirituality, or higher self, you might have a hard time understanding what message he's trying to passed forward. You will want for him to give you a method, a mantra, a routine to enlightenment, but that won't happen. I was that person that was looking for self realization but instead I learned so much more. Also read the story of his life, very interesting.
  • Thinker is the thought Observer is the observed Experiencer is the experience Analyzer is the analyzed Controller is the controlled.

    I love how excited and enthusiastic JK is. Infected by his divinity.
  • @TheVicdub
    I was only 11 when I first read his “Freedom From The Known”, and even at that age it all made sense, as though I knew it all (except the timelessness part) It may have been easier for me to understand him because of my unconditioned mind. He has been my teacher since. 🧘‍♀️
  • 19:24 Try this exercise; look at ( experience) a sunset without using words ( even mentally ) to describe it. In fact, don’t describe it at all - just experience it fully, directly without word labels. Doing this exercise demonstrates this idea.
  • It's fascinating to see Krishnamurti talk with someone he clearly feels understands what he's talking about. Normally he seems terribly frustrated and annoyed at people.
  • @maneckt1893
    At about 23 minutes he says "BE CHOICELESSLY AWARE". Amazing use of words to describe a state which is beyond words.👌👌👌👌👌
  • @beezee7691
    Krishnamurti is always ever so gently edging the listener away from a fearful mental existence.
  • Krishnanmurthi is on a whole different level , one has to be open to understand it 🙏
  • @amanchoubey1
    Krishnamurti is like a star who is always shining everywhere in this universe.
  • @TheVicdub
    He was the most enlightened Buddha since Gautama the Buddha ❤️
  • "...the emptying of the mind brings unity." Awareness. Seeing. No one seeing.
  • Basically, the song "The Wall" by Pink Floyd summarises what Khrisnamurti is saying. In the West we are taught "I think therefore I am" but the truth is the exact opposite; the moment I cease thinking is the moment I truely am. 😁💖🤗🙏😀

    Just turned 20 and found this guy...i don't know why but it seems this is it
  • @ManavSukhija
    Based on my experience ... you don’t empty your mind ... it happens by itself ... when “You or Me” is not there ...!!
