More quotes by Jiddu Krishnamurti
In the denial of that disorder there is order.
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
There is no tranquility in ideas.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
Freedom is now or never.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
To meditate is to observe yourself, for you are totally responsible for your body, mind, thought.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
Love, and don't be caught in opinions and ideas about what love is or should be.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
The primary cause of disorder in ourselves is the seeking of reality promised by another.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
Discipline does not mean suppression and control, nor is it adjustment to a pattern or ideology. It means a mind that sees 'what is' and learns from 'what was'.
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
Where there is love, there is revolution, because love is transformation from moment to moment.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
Religion is the frozen thought of man out of which they build temples.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
What is of great importance is that everyone should concern himself with what I am saying, rather than with the personality of the Teacher, the body of the Teacher, where He dwells, and so on. That will lead to confusion.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
Does choice exist when I see something very clearly?
Jiddu Krishnamurti
Silence is difficult and arduous, it is not to be played with.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
When you practice meditation, the meditator becomes all-important and not the movement of meditation.
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
Why does the brain retain the memory of the hurt from yesterday?
Jiddu Krishnamurti
The man-made laws have been made by men who have not perceived the final goal towards which they are making. And that is why it is so important to insist upon the final thing first, and then all the regulations, all the disciplines, will follow.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
I say that when you have perceived or attained the goal, compromises, renunciations, do not exist. If you have seen the goal, compromise ceases to exist. It is then a question of a different attitude.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
The more you know yourself, the more clarity there is.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
