More quotes by Jiddu Krishnamurti
To know oneself is to study oneself in action, which is relationship.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
Everyone must go through all experiences but they need not go through them all in reality -they can do it vicariously, by imagination.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
All tradition is merely the past.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
It is truth that liberates, not your effort to be free.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
Analysis does not transform consciousness.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
In the search for reality, energy creates its own discipline. But mere discipline, without full comprehension of all this, has no meaning, it is a most destructive thing.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
When you identify yourself with a group of people or a set of ideas, aren't you separating yourself?
Jiddu Krishnamurti
We should awaken feelings of respect for each other. In other words, awaken the desire to kill selfishness.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
The real is near, you do not have to seek it and a man who seeks truth will never find it. Truth is in what is - and that is the beauty of it. But the moment you conceive it, the moment you seek it, you begin to struggle and a man who struggles cannot understand. That is why we have to be still, observant, passively aware.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
The very attention given to finding out if the mind can be completely quiet is quietness.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
Can you look at a flower without thinking?
Jiddu Krishnamurti
If we want to change existing conditions, we must first transform ourselves, which means that we must become aware of our own actions, thoughts and feelings in everyday life.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
Belief creates its own experience therefore, such an experience is not true.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
Meditation is like the breeze that comes in when you leave the window open but if you deliberately keep it open, deliberately invite it to come, it will never appear.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
Awareness is that state of mind which takes in everything-the crows flying across the sky, the flowers on the trees, the people sitting in front, the colors they are wearing - being extensively aware, which needs watching, observing, taking in the shape of the leaf, the shape of the trunk, the shape of the head of another, what he is doing.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
From these prejudices there arises conflict, transient joys and suffering. But we are unconscious of this, unconscious that we are slaves to certain forms of tradition, to social and political environment, to false values.
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
You cannot lay down a standard which all must follow.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
If you wish to produce a perfect rose, you must cut off the other buds which are spoiling the growth of the perfect flower.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
It is intelligence that brings order, not discipline.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
