J. Krishnamurti Online

Authority is destructive

"To live without effort requires the greatest sensitivity and the highest form of intelligence. You don't just say, 'well, I won't struggle', and become like a cow. But one has to understand how conflict arises, the duality in us, the fact of 'what is', and 'what should be', there is the conflict. If there is no 'what should be', which is ideological, which is non real, which is fiction, and see 'what is', and face it, live with it without the 'what should be', then there is no conflict at all. It's only when you compare, evaluate with 'what should be', and then look with 'what should be' at the 'what is', then conflict arises."

– J. Krishnamurti
Dialogue in Claremont, California, USA - 15 November 1968

What is meditation?

Public Talk 4
San Diego, California, USA

In meditation what is the place of search?

Can one bring about order without understanding disorder?

Is control necessary for order? Why do we need control when there is understanding of 'what is'?

Without love, that is not touched by pleasure,
meditation is self-hypnosis.

Can a petty mind experience anything other than its own projections and activities? To see clearly musn't the mind be quiet?

If you have this extraordinary thing going on in your life, then it is everything. Then you are the teacher, the student, the beauty of the cloud, and that is love.

Where does one start?
