J. Krishnamurti - Saanen 1978 - Public Talk 1 - The structure of self-centred concern
Published 2017-06-18
Summary:
Why are most human beings throughout the world so concerned with themselves?
When you listen to these statements of the speaker, do you actually listen or do you make a conclusion or an idea about what you hear?
Can you observe the movement of ordinary, natural sensations without identifying?
Is there an observation of the senses without any form of thought?
Can you be free of pressure?
Where there is a centre held by thought as the ‘me’ there must be suffering. Violence, brutality, cruelty and hate is centred there.

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.

I was fortunate to be there in Saanen in 1978 and was suprisingly able to listen to Krishnamurti very carefully. 40 odd years ago I was a 26 years old man looking for the meaning of (my) life.

Absolutely brilliant. So many gems, one must listen multiple times to absorb it
-
When you look, thought is looking. Wow. Enough said. Thank you as always.

The self is all that there ever is, ever will be, and shall never be again. The self shall never be, never is, and never was anything more than the shared concern of us all.

#36:59 my eyes noticed....his Expression
-
I realize that I have an attachment to my property and that the negative response that I would express if something were to happen to my property is an unnecessary wastage of energy
-
If the observer is the observed, doesn’t that mean that we are mind and body? But without identification we are not body or mind, so which is it?
