You would never hear any song played twice in the same way. The words were retained, but within a certain frame there was great latitude, and the musician could improvise to his heart's content and the more the variations and combinations, the greater the musician.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
Image
Sorrow is not in death but in loneliness, and conflict comes when you seek consolation, forgetfullness, explanations, and illusions.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
Image
Our conflict is in relationship, at all levels of our existence and the understanding of this relationship, completely and extensively, is the only real problem that each one has.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
Image
You can look only when the mind is completely quiet.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
Image
Being discontented, we either seek a different job or merely succumb to environment...instead of causing us to question life, the whole process of existence.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
Image
When you practice meditation, the meditator becomes all-important and not the movement of meditation.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
Image
Meditation is the action of silence.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
Image
We have so committed ourselves in different ways that we have hardly any time for self-reflection, to observe, to study.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
Image
Why haven't we, with all our cunning, experience, resolved this problem of fear completely? Isn't fear the cause of the 'me'?
Jiddu Krishnamurti
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
Truth is a pathless land, and you cannot approach it by any path whatsoever, by any religion, by any sect ... Your have to be your own teacher and your own disciple. You have to question everything that man has accepted as valuable, as necessary.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
Image
Tradition becomes our security, and when the mind is secure it is in decay.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
Image
The enemy is not the other, the enemy is you
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
...Choice in every form is conflict. Contradiction is inevitable in choice this contradiction, inner and outer breeds confusion and misery.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
Image
After all, conflict arises, does it not, through the desire to be something, to be other than what is.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
Image
What sex gives you momentarily is the total abandonment of yourself, then you are back again with your turmoil, so you want a repetition over and over again of that state in which there is no worry, no problem, no self.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
Image
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
Image
When the mind goes beyond the thought of 'the me,' the experiencer, the observer, the thinker, then there is a possibility of a happiness that is incorruptible.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
Image
In the space which thought creates around itself there is no love. This space divides man from man, and in it is all the becoming, the battle of life, the agony and fear. Meditation is the ending of this space, the ending of the me.
