More quotes by Jiddu Krishnamurti
Does a human being know the responsibility he has to himself and to all of mankind
Jiddu Krishnamurti
Only when the mind is still, tranquil, not expecting or grasping or resisting a single thing, is it possible to see what is true. It is the truth that liberates, not your effort to be free.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
There is an art of seeing things as they are: without naming, without being caught in a network of words, without thinking interfering with perception.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
If there is no order in your relationship with your wife, with your husband, with your children, with your neighbour - whether that neighbour is near or very far away - forget about meditation.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
All tradition is merely the past.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
All paths do not lead to truth. There is no path to truth, it must come to you.
Jiddu Krishnamurti

Jiddu Krishnamurti

Jiddu Krishnamurti
One of the functions of thought is to be occupied all the time with something. Most of us want to have our minds continually occupied so that we are prevented from seeing ourselves as we actually are. We are afraid to be empty. We are afraid to look at our fears.
Jiddu Krishnamurti

Jiddu Krishnamurti
When your child is very young, you must protect him from doing harm to himself and others, then later by precept, explaining to him what is going to be for his eventual happiness.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
All authority of any kind, especially in the field of thought and understanding, is the most destructive, evil thing. Leaders destroy the followers and followers destroy the leaders. You 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
And the idea of ourselves is our escape from the fact what we really are.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
Compassion being action without motive, without self-interest, without any sense of fear, without any sense of pleasure.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
If the mind could cease measuring itself against the hero, the perfect, the glorious and all that, it would be what it is.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
Passion is a rather frightening thing because if you have passion you don't know where it will take you.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
Can the mind resolve a psychological problem immediately?
Jiddu Krishnamurti
