You must look most intimately and discover for yourself then it is your own, not somebody else’s, not something that you have been told, because there is no teacher and no follower.

More quotes by Jiddu Krishnamurti
And the idea of ourselves is our escape from the fact what we really are.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
Intelligence is the seeing of what is.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
Fear is the process of the mind in the struggle of becoming. In becoming good there is the fear of evil in becoming complete, there is the fear of loneliness.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
It is more important to find out what you are giving to society than to ask what is the right means of livelihood.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
You cannot ask which system is the better because you cannot standardize one system for the whole of the world. You cannot have one stereotyped code of morality for every country. One system may work very well in one country and very badly in another. You cannot grow a tropical flower in a cold climate.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
The ambitious man has never found his true vocation.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
To know yourself you need not go to any book, to any priest, to any psychologist. The whole treasure is within yourself.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
Is not virtue a negation of becoming?
Jiddu Krishnamurti
It is only the dull, sleepy mind that creates and clings to habit. A mind that is attentive from moment to moment - attentive to what it is saying, attentive to the movement of its hands, of its thoughts, of its feelings - will discover that the formation of further habits has come to an end.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
A lily or a rose never pretends, and its beauty is that it is what it is.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
Relationship between human beings is based on the image-forming, defensive mechanism. In our relationships each of us builds an image about the other, and these two images have relationship, not the human beings themselves.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
Meditation is like the breeze that comes in when you leave the window open but if you deliberately keep it open, deliberately invite it to come, it will never appear.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
From innumerable complexities we must grow to simplicity we must become simple in our inward life and in our outward needs.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
Conflict is not in the feeling of being in love. The feeling of being in love is utterly without conflict. There is no loss of energy in being in love.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
Discipline is necessary to curb the mind, otherwise there is no peace.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
Without love the acquisition of knowledge only increases confusion and leads to self-destruction.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
It is very difficult to be like the other guy, to be ordinary. Mediocrity takes a great deal of energy. But to be ourselves is very easy. You don't have to do a thing.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
Thought is matter as much as the floor, the wall, the telephone, are matter.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
A mind that is disciplined, controlled, is free within its own pattern but that is not freedom. The end of discipline is conformity its path leads to the known, and the known is never the free.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
Your belief in God is merely an escape from your monotonous, stupid and cruel life.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
