Image
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
Image
To come upon love without seeking it is the only way to find it.
Jiddu Krishnamurti

To meditate is to observe yourself, for you are totally responsible for your body, mind, thought.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
Image
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
Image
When there is love, there is no duty. When you love your wife, you share everything with her-your property, your trouble, your anxiety, your joy. You do not dominate. You are not the man and she is not the woman to be used and thrown aside, a sort of breeding machine to carry on your name. When there is love, the word duty disappears.

Jiddu Krishnamurti
Image
There is hope in people, not in society, not in systems, but in you and me.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
Image
In the denial of that disorder there is order.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
Image
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
Image
Is there a thinker apart from thought?
Jiddu Krishnamurti
Image
If you do not give your children freedom, when they grow up, they will break away from the family, and then your hearts will be broken.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
Image
To keep always in the same place means to stagnate.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
Image
Meditation is not a process of learning how to meditate it is the very inquiry into what is meditation. To inquire into what is meditation, the mind must free itself from what it has learnt about meditation, and the freeing of the mind from what it has learnt is the beginning of meditation.

Image
It is necessary that one be a light to oneself in a world that is becoming utterly dark.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
Image
It is only those who are in constant revolt that discover what is true, not the man who conforms, who follows some tradition. It is only when you are constantly inquiring, constantly observing, constantly learning, that you find truth, God, or love.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
Image
There is no partial sensitivity either it is the state of one's whole being, total consciousness or it is not there at all
