Quote

Can't you fall in love and not have a possessive relationship? I love someone and she loves me and we get married - that is all perfectly straightforward and simple, in that there is no conflict at all.

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
Where there is love, there is revolution, because love is transformation from moment to moment.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
Image
Tradition becomes our security, and when the mind is secure it is in decay.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
Image
It is only those who are in constant revolt that discover what is true, not the man who conforms, who follows some tradition. It is only when you are constantly inquiring, constantly observing, constantly learning, that you find truth, God, or love.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
Image
Can another help bring about a transformation in you? If he can, you are not transformed you are merely dominated, influenced.
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

The authority of a belief imposed by religion surely destroys the discovery of reality.One relies on authority because one is afraid to stand alone.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
Image
Thought nourishes, sustains and gives continuity to fear and pleasure.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
Image
Love may be the ultimate solution to all man's difficulties, problems and travails.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
Image
There can only be a relationship between human beings when we accept what is, not what should be.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
Image
It is good to have organizations but not to exaggerate their importance out of due proportion.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
Image
It is only the religious mind that is a truly revolutionary mind.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
Image
Look what is happening in the world - we are being conditioned by society, by the culture we live in, and that culture is the product of man. There is nothing holy, or divine, or eternal about culture.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
Image
Is it possible to live in this world without the operation of will?
Jiddu Krishnamurti
Image
Without total freedom, every perception, every objective regard, is twisted. It is only the man who is totally free that can look and understand immediately. Freedom implies really, doesn't it, the total emptying of the mind. To completely empty the whole content of the mind — that is real freedom.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
Image
The real student is studying, learning, inquiring, exploring, not just until he is twenty or twenty-five, but throughout life.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
Image
We are to learn about fear, not how to escape from it.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
Image
Life behind all form is one, the expressions of that life are not of very great importance.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
Image
I don't mind what happens.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
Image
But the healing of the mind is something totally different. That healing gradually takes place if you are with nature, with that orange on the tree, and the blade of grass that pushes through the cement, and the hills covered, hidden, by the clouds.
