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.

More quotes by U.G. Krishnamurti
I am simply pointing out that at the rate at which we are going the whole genetic engineering technology will end up in the hands of the political system to be used for the complete control and subjugation of man.
U.G. Krishnamurti
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
The body is a fortuitous concourse of atoms. There is no death for the body, only an exchange of atoms. Their changing places and taking different forms is what we call 'death.' It's a process which restores the energy level in nature that has gone down. In reality, nothing is born and nothing is dead.
U.G. Krishnamurti
I am not anti-rational, just unrational. You may infer a rational meaning in what I say or do, but it is your doing, not mine.
U.G. Krishnamurti
My teaching, if that is the word you want to use, has no copyright. You are free to reproduce, distribute, interpret, misinterpret, distort, garble, do what you like, even claim authorship, without my consent or the permission of anybody.
U.G. Krishnamurti
Don't follow me, I'm lost.
U.G. Krishnamurti
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
If you have the courage to touch life for the first time, you will never know what hit you. Everything man has thought, felt and experienced is gone, and nothing is put in its place.
U.G. Krishnamurti
*Only if you reject all the other paths can you discover your own path.
U.G. Krishnamurti
The body is not interested in anything you are interested in. And that is the battle that is going on all the time.
U.G. Krishnamurti
Nature is interested in only two things--to survive and to reproduce one like itself. Anything you superimpose on that, all the cultural input, is responsible for the boredom of man.
U.G. Krishnamurti
Society or culture or whatever you might want to call it, has created us all solely and wholly for the purpose of maintaining its continuity and status quo.
U.G. Krishnamurti
To be yourself requires extraordinary intelligence. You are blessed with that intelligence nobody need give it to you nobody can take it away from you. He who lets that express itself in its own way is a Natural Man.
U.G. Krishnamurti
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
Food, clothing and shelter — these are the basic needs. Beyond that, if you want anything, it is the beginning of self-deception.
U.G. Krishnamurti
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
There is no such thing as truth. The only thing that is actually there is your 'logically' ascertained premise, which you call truth.
U.G. Krishnamurti
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
You cannot experience the death of anybody
U.G. Krishnamurti
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
