Image
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
Image
Society is the product of relationship, of yours and mine together. If we change in our relationship, society changes.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
Image
It is very easy to conform to what your society or your parents and teachers tell you. That is a safe and easy way of existing but that is not living...To live is to find out for yourself what is true.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
Image
The world is me and I am the world.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
Image
As the world has to attain the fulfilment of eternal life, to me it does not in the least matter what I am called -'Enlightened One', 'Son of God', or something else. To me, it has no purpose - as little as when the Buddha said, 'I am the Enlightened One'.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
Image
I don't mind what happens.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
Image
My chief concern is to make clear the Truth which I have attained, to give an understanding of the Truth, which is the Truth for all. And hence, if there is understanding rather than blind following, people will not create a religion.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
Image
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
Image
It does not in the least concern me whether I shall have at the end of my life thirty people who understand or three hundred. I am like an artist who paints a picture because he must, otherwise he is unhappy - not unhappy, but he must obey that creative impulse.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
Image
Charity is unconscious of itself, there is no accumulation first and then distribution. It is like the flower - natural, open, spontaneous.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
Image
It is necessary that one be a light to oneself in a world that is becoming utterly dark.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
Image
Put away the book, the description, the tradition, the authority, and take the journey of self-discovery. Love, and don't be caught in opinions and ideas about what love is or should be. When you love, everything will come right. Love has its own action.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
Image
Meditation is not a withdrawal from life. Meditation is a process of understanding oneself.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
Image
Doesn't becoming imply time?
Jiddu Krishnamurti
Image
Governments want efficient technicians, not human beings, because human beings become dangerous to governments – and to organized religions as well. That is why governments and religious organizations seek to control education.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
Image
Religion is the frozen thought of man out of which they build temples.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
Image
Belief conditions experience, and experience then strengthens belief.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
Image
Does a human being know the responsibility he has to himself and to all of mankind
Jiddu Krishnamurti
Image
All paths do not lead to truth. There is no path to truth, it must come to you.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
Image
It is more important to find out what you are giving to society than to ask what is the right means of livelihood.
