More quotes by Jiddu Krishnamurti
Analysis does not transform consciousness.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
When you identify yourself with a group of people or a set of ideas, aren't you separating yourself?
Jiddu Krishnamurti
Those who play a safe game die very safely.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
A mind that practices love cannot love.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
Perception without the word, which is without thought, is one of the strangest phenomena. Then the perception is much more acute, not only with the brain, but also with all the senses. Such perception is not the fragmentary perception of the intellect nor the affair of the emotions. It can be called a total perception, and it is part of meditation.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
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
Take a journey into the things which you are carrying, the known- not into the unknown-into what you already know: your pleasures, your delights, your despairs, your sorrows. Take a journey into that, that is all you have.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
Of course it is better to emphasize the unity of human beings rather than to emphasize the diversity of forms, that is to say, the man and the woman separately. If you have separate organizations for men and women you will tend to set them apart from each other, which is what often happens at present and is absurd!
Jiddu Krishnamurti
We demand to be coaxed and comforted, to be encouraged and gratified, so we choose a teacher who will give us what we crave for. We do not search out reality, but go after gratification and sensation.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
Discipline does not mean suppression and control, nor is it adjustment to a pattern or ideology. It means a mind that sees 'what is' and learns from 'what was'.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
Constantly to seek the purpose of life is one of the odd escapes of man. If he finds what he seeks it will not be worth that pebble on the path.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
Despair exists only when there is hope.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
I don't mind what happens. That is the essence of inner freedom. It is a timeless spiritual truth: release attachment to outcomes, deep inside yourself, you'll feel good no matter what.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
To know yourself you need not go to any book, to any priest, to any psychologist. The whole treasure is within yourself.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
When we suffer we have made it into a personal affair. We shut out all the suffering of mankind.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
To be free comes not from changing or fixing this world, but from seeing this world as it is and opening the heart in the midst of it.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
My contention is that it is impossible to limit Truth, for that would mean that you were stepping down the Truth to the individual, who is limited. It would be useless to lay down a crystallized method for everyone to follow.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
Freedom lies outside the pattern of society but to be free of that pattern you have to understand the whole content of it, which is to understand your own mind.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
A man who is seeking to understand violence does not belong to any country, to any religion, to any political party or partial system he is concerned with the total understanding of mankind.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
Sir, when two people have the extraordinary quality of this state, words are not necessary. Where that quality of love exists, words become unnecessary. There is instant communication.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
