To understand oneself profoundly, one needs balance. Neither renunciation nor acquiescence.
Quotations
J. Krishnamurti
Are you aware of the significance of every thought, of every reaction that you happen to have?
Do you become spiritual by performing ceremonies and rituals…? Ceremonies and rituals sometimes give a certain sensation, so-called uplift. But they are repetitious, and every sensation that is repeated soon wearies of itself.
All ideologies are idiotic, whether religious or political, for it is conceptual thinking, which has so unfortunately divided man.
Life is a journey towards the unknown. An empty mind is useful in that journey rather than a mind filled with past.
The end is the beginning of all things, suppressed and hidden, awaiting to be released through the rhythm of pain and pleasure… Pain itself destroys pain. Suffering itself frees man from suffering.
You are the centre of that world. That is the world you live in. Now how will you change the world? By changing yourself.
