131 • New Delhi 1962 (9/9) • Talk 8: The Freedom and Energy Necessary for a New Way of Living

Krishnamurti: A Complete Revolution of the MindNew Delhi 1962, Public Meetings (No recording of Talk 4)9/9: The Freedom and Energy Necessary for a New Way of Living
If one is to find out what freedom is, one must question everything.
We have built resistance because we are always in conflict.
The idea that you will gradually change is a form of resistance.
Can you look at something without thought?
One who would understand freedom must be ruthlessly free of society.
For most of us, action is based on an idea.
Why does one depend?
A free mind is the essence of humility because such a mind can learn.
An energy born out of freedom.

132 • New Delhi 1983 (1/4) • Talk 1: Bringing About Peace Requires Great Intelligence

Krishnamurti: The Shared Consciousness of HumanityNew Delhi 1983, Public Meetings1/4: Bringing About Peace Requires Great Intelligence
Governments talk about peace, but there has never been peace in the world.
The world is fragmented into nationalities geographically, linguistically, religiously; broken up into the business, spiritual, religious and non-sectarian worlds.
Conflict ultimately is war.
We have created society; the society then controls us.
We blame the environment, education, governments, but we have made all this and are responsible for it.
You can’t bring about order; you can only remove disorder.
Remove confusion and there is clarity.
In relationship, conflict is brought about by thought.
Is there another instrument than thought?

133 • New Delhi 1983 (2/4) • Talk 2: Your Consciousness Is Not Separate From Humanity’s

Krishnamurti: The Shared Consciousness of HumanityNew Delhi 1983, Public Meetings2/4: Your Consciousness Is Not Separate From Humanity’s
Why do you have ideals?
Ideals separate people and bring about conflict.
We are not analysing the content of consciousness but are observing.
Is there an observation without the observer?
The consciousness you think is yours is shared by all humanity.
To realise that fact that you are not individual means a tremendous psychological change.
To observe, we must understand the nature of thought and the nature of time.
Thought and time are the two major factors in life. Are they separate?
Can you live without a single image? Otherwise, you will be hurt and never have the beauty of humility.

134 • New Delhi 1983 (3/4) • Talk 3: Fear, Thought and Love

Krishnamurti: The Shared Consciousness of HumanityNew Delhi 1983, Public Meetings3/4: Fear, Thought and Love
Thought can only imagine the illimitable, the timeless, the immeasurable.
One of the major burdens of our consciousness is fear.
Fear is part of violence.
Thought projects into the future and that creates fear.
Is it possible to stop thought and the continuity of a movement as time?
How do you observe the fact that thought and time are the causation of fear?
When there is freedom from fear, there is love.
Thought is the creator of fear and the continuity of pleasure.
Is love pleasure? Is love desire? Is love the instrument of thought?
Love has intelligence.

135 • New Delhi 1983 (4/4) • Talk 4: Being With Death While Living

Krishnamurti: The Shared Consciousness of HumanityNew Delhi 1983, Public Meetings4/4: Being With Death While Living
Can you look at sorrow, hold it as you would a precious jewel?
Where there is sorrow, there cannot be love.
To understand life and death, one must approach non-dualistically.
Is it possible as we live to die to the things to which we are attached?
Live with death so that you are a guest in this world.
Is my consciousness mine at all?
It is possible to live a life in which there is not a continual recording?
How do you come upon that which is sacred?

136 • Ojai 1966 (1/9) • Talk 1: Freedom To Inquire

Krishnamurti: Effort To Be Intelligent Is Not IntelligentOjai 1966, Public Meetings1/9: Freedom To Inquire
If we merely consider the individual, we shall not inquire very deeply.
Freedom is one of the fundamental issues of life.
It requires tremendous inquiry, intelligence and sensitivity to find out what it is to be free.
Revolt is not freedom.
You may reject outward war, but inwardly we are in a battle with ourselves and others.
To resolve anything, one has to watch without time, see immediately and so bring about a total mutation.
Questions from the audience followed the talk.

137 • Ojai 1966 (2/9) • Talk 2: Learning Is in the Active Present

Krishnamurti: Effort To Be Intelligent Is Not IntelligentOjai 1966, Public Meetings2/9: Learning Is in the Active Present
Where are human beings heading?
One has to meet this immense challenge with the understanding of the whole of the human world.
To understand, there must be discipline.
I am always learning, always in the present. This active learning ceases when it becomes, ‘I have learnt.’
To me, there is no unconscious.
Learning demands awareness of the machinery of thought and feeling, without choice. 
Is there actual significance to living?
Questions from the audience followed the talk.

138 • Ojai 1966 (3/9) • Discussion 1: Is It Possible To End Violence Without Effort?

Krishnamurti: Effort To Be Intelligent Is Not IntelligentOjai 1966, Public Meetings3/9: Is It Possible To End Violence Without Effort?
Is it possible, living in this world, to be non-aggressive and not to have war?
To understand violence, we must be rid of the idea of non-violence.
Why do we have ideals?
How do I know I am violent?
Making an effort to change violence is part of violence.
Does comparison bring about an ending of ‘what is’?
Is it possible to be free from the known immediately?
Effort exists as long as there is the idea of gradualness.

139 • Ojai 1966 (4/9) • Talk 3: Giving Complete Attention to Pleasure

Krishnamurti: Effort To Be Intelligent Is Not IntelligentOjai 1966, Public Meetings4/9: Giving Complete Attention to Pleasure
Passion with a motive is bound to come to an end.
When you attend, there are no borders of inattention.
Without understanding pleasure, there can be no freedom from fear.
Observation cannot be taught by another. If you are taught how to observe, you cease to observe.
Only when there is an end to time is there something totally new. Otherwise it is merely a continuity what has been, modified through the present and conditioned by the future.
Pleasure has in it pain; the two cannot be separated.
Questions from the audience followed the talk.

Krishnamurti: Effort To Be Intelligent Is Not IntelligentOjai 1966, Public Meetings5/9: Dying To Everything Known
Understanding the nature of conflict and effort.
Fear is thought in action with regard to the past through the present, to the future.
The more the tension between the observer and the fact of fear, the greater the effort and desire to escape or cover up.
You cannot separate death from love and living.
Dying every day to everything that we know is to love.
Love is not something to be cultivated.
Questions from the audience followed the talk.
