All assertions of K come from his unfragmented state of intelligence only. There is no point in analyzing or discussing only the outer expanded applications, without understanding his basic discovery of the 'unfragmented state of intelligence',…

Wondering how one can observe something with totally free mind as jiddu krishnamurti says. He says when such an observation happens there no two things such as observer and the observed they are one and the same

Is it possible to create a new culture based on K's teachings?Not based on greed, glamour, acquisition, domination, fear, longing, sorrow, and escape?Not based on "me" and "you" but "us"?A culture where artists don't sign their name?Where no entertainment lawyers are needed?What would such a culture be like, this K-culture?."Without that creativeness which is not of time, which is not of thought, we cannot bring about a vitally different culture, a different state of human relationship? Is it…Continue

Long ago somebody asked a question to K which most probably goes along this line `Sir, you mean to say all the gurus and all the masters over the past thousands of years were all wrong? '.K said ` why not? why are you so gullible to accept all of them' and he went to explain... I wish Ken perhaps throw more light on this about the original version. I wonder how many of you agree with his statement and think that this is the only original and pristine teachings? (after so many years and gurus I…Continue

K was a lifelong vegetarian, first as a Brahmin in India and later by choice in Europe. He also chose to wear leather shoes (and belts?), which drew questions over the years.Here's a sample of Q&As with K dealing with these issues. While K made it clear that vegetarianism is the compassionate choice, even a natural choice, he also made it clear that it is not the primary issue. Letters to the Schools, Volume Two, Letter 17, 1st November 1983 What is nature? There is a great deal of talk…Continue

This topic arose from Don's "Feminist Men" discussion and I thought it was important enough (for me at least) to deserve a separate discussion.Peter Stephens (On Tuesday):Sorry if I look at this from a more introverted way, but it gets back to the image process. I look at some one of the opposite sex and I notice what I find attractive. But you can't just stare at people, so I don't focus on it, and I get a sense of something more appealing, which is the freshness of life in the human…Continue

ADVICE is very interesting in a most peculiar way because it is like flipping a coin, if we are glad of the outcome, then we feel good about the result and so as the man in the video i posted has learned from his study, we are predisposed to think yes or no, and in fact the beauty of flipping the coin is not that it is letting random make your choice for you but that it moves you one infinitisemal exponential nanofecund closer to your very own conditioning, and something you learn you are…Continue
