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.

More quotes by Jiddu Krishnamurti
The more you know yourself, the more clarity there is.
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
Insight is not a matter of memory, of knowledge and time, which are all thought.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
Does a human being know the responsibility he has to himself and to all of mankind
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
To seek fulfillment is to invite frustration.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
You must understand the whole of life, not just one little part of it. That is why you must read, that is why you must look at the skies, that is why you must sing and dance, and write poems and suffer and understand, for all that is life.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
It is truth that liberates, not your effort to be free.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
To meditate is to observe yourself, for you are totally responsible for your body, mind, thought.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
Goodness is not in the backyard of the individual nor in the open field of the collective goodness flowers only in freedom from both.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
Understanding of the self only arises in relationship, in watching yourself in relationship to people, ideas, and things to trees, the earth, and the world around you and within you. Relationship is the mirror in which the self is revealed. Without self-knowledge there is no basis for right thought and action.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
It is a great art to have an abundance of knowledge and experience - to know the richness of life, the beauty of existence, the struggles, the miseries, the laughter, the tears - and yet keep your mind very simple and you can have a simple mind only when you know how to love.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
Doesn't becoming imply time?
Jiddu Krishnamurti
Happiness is strange it comes when you are not seeking it. When you are not making an effort to be happy, then unexpectedly, mysteriously, happiness is there, born of purity, of a loveliness of being.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
There is hope in people, not in society, not in systems, but in you and me.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
It is only the religious mind that is a truly revolutionary mind.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
The constant assertion of belief is an indication of fear.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
The more you know yourself, the more clarity there is. Self-knowledge has no end - you don't come to an achievement, you don't come to a conclusion. It is an endless river.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
The enemy is not the other, the enemy is you
Jiddu Krishnamurti
Meditation is one of the greatest arts in life - perhaps the greatest, and one cannot possibly learn it from anybody, that is the beauty of it.
Jiddu Krishnamurti
