More quotes by Jiddu Krishnamurti
Knowing the cause of something is not going to help you to be free of it.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
Knowledge, idea, belief stands in the way of wisdom.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
I don't mind what happens. That is the essence of inner freedom. It is a timeless spiritual truth: release attachment to outcomes, deep inside yourself, you'll feel good no matter what.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
I am life. I have no name. I am as the fresh breeze of the mountains.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
Freedom from something is not freedom.
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
If you seem something that is true and do not act then you are wasting your life. And life is too precious. It is all that we have.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
Look what is happening in the world - we are being conditioned by society, by the culture we live in, and that culture is the product of man. There is nothing holy, or divine, or eternal about culture.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
You can only be afraid of what you think you know.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
Belief creates its own experience therefore, such an experience is not true.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
We all want to be famous people, and the moment we want to be something we are no longer free.
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
The Creative knows the great beginnings. The Receptive completes the finished things. The Creative is decided and therefore shows to men the easy. The Receptive is yielding and therefore shows to men the simple. Learning is movement from moment to moment.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
The crisis is not out there in the world, it is within our own consciousness.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
Seeing, observing, listening, these are the greatest acts
Jiddu Krishnamurti
To meditate is to observe yourself, for you are totally responsible for your body, mind, thought.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
Compassion being action without motive, without self-interest, without any sense of fear, without any sense of pleasure.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
People must work things out for themselves. It is no good saying, I have found a house which suits me and therefore everybody must adopt the same kind of house.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
The real is near, you do not have to seek it and a man who seeks truth will never find it. Truth is in what is - and that is the beauty of it. But the moment you conceive it, the moment you seek it, you begin to struggle and a man who struggles cannot understand. That is why we have to be still, observant, passively aware.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
To know oneself is to study oneself in action, which is relationship.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
