Quote

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.

Again, I maintain that no organization can lead man to spirituality.
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
Image
And as we are - the world is. That is, if we are greedy, envious, competitive, our society will be competitive, envious, greedy, which brings misery and war. The State is what we are.

Jiddu Krishnamurti
Image
I would teach my child to respect what is right - the word right is a difficult word to use - I would teach him to respect the intrinsic value of things. Do you see what I mean? The true proportion of things.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
Image
To seek fulfillment is to invite frustration.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
Image
Fear is the process of the mind in the struggle of becoming. In becoming good there is the fear of evil in becoming complete, there is the fear of loneliness.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
Image
Only in relationship can you know yourself, not in abstraction, and certainly not in isolation.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
Image
Belief creates its own experience therefore, such an experience is not true.
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.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
Image
Is not virtue a negation of becoming?
Jiddu Krishnamurti
Image
Freedom is entirely different from revolt. There is no such thing as doing right or wrong when there is freedom. You are free and from that centre you act.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
