It is raining and you can hear the pattern of the drops. You can hear it with your ears, or you can hear it out of that deep silence.

Jiddu Krishnamurti
If you have the desire, if you establish the goal - which is harmony, which is happiness through liberation- then these stages of revolt, of war, of struggle, can be avoided - should be avoided. You are not going to wallow in the gutter if you can jump over it.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
Meditation is the action of silence.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
The moment you follow someone you cease to follow Truth.
Jiddu Krishnamurti

Jiddu Krishnamurti
Surely, life is not merely a job, an occupation life is something extraordinarily wide and profound, it is a great mystery, a vast realm in which we function as human beings.
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
All life is a movement in relationship. There is no living thing on earth which is not related to something or other.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
As long as the mind is seeking to fill itself, it will always be empty. When the mind is no longer concerned with filling its own emptiness, then only does that emptiness cease to be.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
We are to learn about fear, not how to escape from it.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
