More quotes by Jiddu Krishnamurti
When you are free, you have no choice.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
If there is no meditation, then you are like a blind man in a world of great beauty, light and colour.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
Freedom from something is not freedom.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
When inquiry is suppressed by previous knowledge, or by the authority and experience of another, then learning becomes mere imitation, and imitation causes a human being to repeat what is learned without experiencing it.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
Living is not this tawdry, mediocre, disciplined thing which we call our existence. Living is something entirely different it is abundantly rich, timelessly changing, and as long as we don't understand that eternal movement, our lives are bound to have very little meaning.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
What brings understanding is love. When your heart is full, then you will listen to the teacher, to the beggar, to the laughter of children, to the rainbow, and to the sorrow of man. Under every stone and leaf, that which is eternal exists.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
It does not matter what you call the gaoler so long as he has the key that will open the door of your prison! Similarly, as I have the key to release Life from its prison, it does not matter in the least what you call either the key or myself. I am not concerned about the title.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
A cup is useful only when it is empty and a mind that is filled with beliefs, with dogmas, with assertions, with quotations is really an uncreative mind.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
To follow implies not only the denying of one's own clarity, investigation, integrity and honesty, but it also implies that your motive in following is reward.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
All tradition is merely the past.
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
When you say that I have followers, let me assure you that I do not want followers, nor would I ever encourage the idea of following.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
Life behind all form is one, the expressions of that life are not of very great importance.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
Truth is a pathless land.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
Order cannot possibly be brought about through conformity to a pattern, under any circumstances.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
The ending is the beginning, and the beginning is the first step, and the first step is the only step.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
Find out for yourself what are the possesions and ideals that you do not desire. By knowing what you do not want, by elimination, you will unburden the mind, and only then will it understand the essential which is ever there.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
Seeing, observing, listening, these are the greatest acts
Jiddu Krishnamurti
[on the secret to a happy, content life] Do you want to know what my secret is? I don’t mind what happens.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
To come upon love without seeking it is the only way to find it.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
