More quotes by Jiddu Krishnamurti

Jiddu Krishnamurti
Truth is a pathless land.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
Goodness, generosity, or love does not come into being save through the search for reality.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
When all authority of every kind is put aside, denied, then you can find out for yourself.
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
Understanding of the self only arises in relationship, in watching yourself in relationship to people, ideas, and things to trees, the earth, and the world around you and within you. Relationship is the mirror in which the self is revealed. Without self-knowledge there is no basis for right thought and action.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
The ending is the beginning, and the beginning is the first step, and the first step is the only step.
Jiddu Krishnamurti

Jiddu Krishnamurti

Jiddu Krishnamurti
We are very defensive, and therefore aggressive, when we hold on to a particular belief, a dogmas, or when we worship our particular nationality, with the rag that is called the flag.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
Contentment is not happiness. Contentment is stagnation and decay, whereas happiness is life and growth.
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
One must know oneself as one is, not as one wishes to be, which is merely an ideal and therefore fictitious, unreal it is only that which is that can be transformed, not that which you wish to be.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
Despair exists only when there is hope.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
Seeing, observing, listening, these are the greatest acts
Jiddu Krishnamurti
The only freedom is the freedom from the known.
