The ending of sorrow is the beginning of wisdom. Knowledge is always within the shadow of ignorance. Meditation is freedom from thought and a movement in the ecstasy of truth. Meditation is explosion of intelligence.

More quotes by Jiddu Krishnamurti
Can the mind become completely still without coercion, without compulsion, without discipline?
Jiddu Krishnamurti
In the space which thought creates around itself there is no love. This space divides man from man, and in it is all the becoming, the battle of life, the agony and fear. Meditation is the ending of this space, the ending of the me.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
The society in which we live is the result of our psychological state.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
To understand what is right meditation there must be an awareness of the operation of one's own consciousness, and then there is complete attention.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
What you believe you experience.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
And the point is, is it possible for the mind to be totally free from suffering and yet not become indifferent, callous, irresponsible, but to have that passion, the intensity, the energy that freedom brings, freedom from suffering.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
I maintain that Truth is a pathless land, and you cannot approach it by any path whatsoever, by any religion, by any sect.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
When the mind sees itself in the mirror of relationship, from that perception there is self-knowledge.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
Ugliness and evil are necessary for growth but they may be experienced vicariously.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
We demand to be coaxed and comforted, to be encouraged and gratified, so we choose a teacher who will give us what we crave for. We do not search out reality, but go after gratification and sensation.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
You must understand the whole of life, not just one little part of it.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
Being discontented, we either seek a different job or merely succumb to environment...instead of causing us to question life, the whole process of existence.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
By our pontifical assertions, our superior impatience, and our casual brushing aside of their curiosity, we do not encourage their inquiry, for we are rather apprehensive of what may be asked of us we do not foster their discontent, for we ourselves have ceased to question.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
To be whole, nonfragmented in action, in life, in every kind of relationship, that is the very essence of sanity. Sanity means to be whole, healthy and holy.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
To know oneself is to study oneself in action, which is relationship.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
When we talk about understanding, surely it takes place only when the mind listens completely - the mind being your heart, your nerves, your ears- when you give your whole attention to it.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
The crisis is not out there in the world, it is within our own consciousness.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
Hasn't knowledge only crippled me from seeing truth? Is knowledge itself illusory?
Jiddu Krishnamurti
I am life. I have no name. I am as the fresh breeze of the mountains.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
The thought is not the thing.
