To understand oneself profoundly, one needs balance. Neither renunciation nor acquiescence.
Quotations
J. Krishnamurti
All ideologies are idiotic, whether religious or political, for it is conceptual thinking, which has so unfortunately divided man.
Are you aware of the significance of every thought, of every reaction that you happen to have?
Self-knowledge is not a thing to be bought in books, but it is awareness, from moment to moment.
Action has meaning only in relationship and without understanding relationship, action on any level will only breed conflict. The understanding of relationship is infinitely more important than the search for any plan of action.
The end is the beginning of all things, suppressed and hidden, awaiting to be released through the rhythm of pain and pleasure… Pain itself destroys pain. Suffering itself frees man from suffering.
Life is a journey towards the unknown. An empty mind is useful in that journey rather than a mind filled with past.
Truth is a pathless land, and you cannot approach it by any path whatsoever, by any religion, by any sect.
