More quotes by U.G. Krishnamurti

Image
Life has to be described in pure and simple physical and physiological terms. It must be demystified and depsychologised
U.G. Krishnamurti
Image
You can have the courage to climb the mountain, swim the lakes, go on a raft to the other side of the Atlantic or Pacific. That any fool can do, but the courage to be on your own, to stand on your two solid feet, is something which cannot be given by somebody.
U.G. Krishnamurti
Image
It would be more interesting to learn from children, than try to teach them how to behave, how to live and how to function.
U.G. Krishnamurti
Image
You cannot experience the death of anybody
U.G. Krishnamurti
Image
It is fear that makes you believe that you are living and that you will be dead.What we do not want is the fear to come to an end. That is why we have invented all these new minds, new sciences,new talks, therapies, choiceless awareness and various other gimmicks.
U.G. Krishnamurti
Image
You think when you don't want to do anything. Thinking is a poor alternative to acting. Your thinking is consuming all your energy. Act, don't think!
U.G. Krishnamurti
Image
If anyone thinks he can help you, he will inevitably mislead you, and the less phony he is the more powerful he is, the more enlightened he is, the more misery and mischief he will create for you.
U.G. Krishnamurti
Image
Thought can never capture the movement of life, it is much too slow. It is like lightning and thunder. They occur simultaneously, but sound, travelling slower than light, reaches you later, creating the illusion of two separate events.
U.G. Krishnamurti
Image
The fact is that we don't want to be free. What is responsible for our problems is the fear of losing what we have and what we know.
U.G. Krishnamurti
Image
Thought can never capture the movement of life, it is much too slow.
U.G. Krishnamurti
Image
Don't follow me, I'm lost.
U.G. Krishnamurti
Image
There is no need to change this world at all and there is no need to change yourself either.
U.G. Krishnamurti
Image
The questioner has to come to an end. It is the questioner that creates the answer and the questioner comes into being from the answer, otherwise there is no questioner.
U.G. Krishnamurti
Image
There is nothing there - no soul - there is only this question about after death. The question has to die now to find the answer - your answer not my answer - because the question is born out of the assumption, the belief, that there is something to continue after death.
U.G. Krishnamurti
Image
Your constant utilization of thought to give continuity to your separate self is you. There is nothing there inside you other than that.
U.G. Krishnamurti
Image
There is no power outside of man. Man has created God out of fear. So the problem is fear and not God.
U.G. Krishnamurti
Image
You love fear. The ending of fear is death, and you don't want that to happen. I am not talking of wiping out the phobias of the body. They are necessary for survival. The death of fear is the only death.
U.G. Krishnamurti
Image
All I can guarantee you is that as long as you are searching for happiness, you will remain unhappy.
U.G. Krishnamurti
Image
All your experiences, all your meditations, all your prayer, all that you do, is self-centred. It is strengthening the self, adding momentum, gathering momentum, so it is taking you in the opposite direction. Whatever you do to be free from the self also is a self-centred activity.
U.G. Krishnamurti
Image
Your situation and prospects only seem hopeless because you have ideas of hope. Knock off that hope and the crippling feelings of helplessness go with it.
U.G. Krishnamurti
