Jiddu Krishnamurti
Now, is it possible not to be hurt at all? Because the consequences of being hurt are the building of a wall around oneself, withdrawing in one's relationship with others in order not to be hurt more. In that there is fear and a gradual isolation. Now, we are asking: Is it possible not only to be free of past hurts but also never to be hurt again?
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
Self-knowledge is only from moment to moment, and therefore there is a creative happiness from moment to moment.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
When inquiry is suppressed by previous knowledge, or by the authority and experience of another, then learning becomes mere imitation, and imitation causes a human being to repeat what is learned without experiencing it.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
The mind gives meaning to anything but the meaning it gives is meaningless.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
