What is wrong with desire?
Though we know everything is energy, is there activity of this energy that does not produce sorrow?
How does one perceive the totality of anything?
Why do we suffer? What is the nature of suffering?

142 • Ojai 1966 (7/9) • Talk 5: Meditation Is Freeing the Mind of the Known

Krishnamurti: Effort To Be Intelligent Is Not IntelligentOjai 1966, Public Meetings7/9: Meditation Is Freeing the Mind of the Known
Is it possible to end the decaying process of the brain and mind?
Are we aware that there is an image, conscious or unconscious, in each of us about ourselves?
When one realises the observer is the image-maker, our process of thinking changes tremendously.
The emptying of the mind is meditation.
There is understanding and action only when the mind is completely quiet.
Emptying of the mind takes place when there is no observer as the observed.
Questions from the audience followed the talk.

143 • Ojai 1966 (8/9) • Talk 6: Is It Possible to Radically Change ‘What Is’?

Krishnamurti: Effort To Be Intelligent Is Not IntelligentOjai 1966, Public Meetings8/9: Is It Possible to Radically Change ‘What Is’?
Is there a state of mind awakened to beauty without the object?
Why are we psychologically discontented?
If one is aware of ‘what is’, there is no seeking and the movement of ‘what is’ is entirely different.
When seeking comes to a complete end, you have the energy to look at ‘what is’.
Is it possible to totally bring about a mutation in ‘what is’?
There will be conflict only as long as there is the observer and the observed.
When you give your complete attention to look, is there an observer?
Questions from the audience followed the talk.

144 • Ojai 1966 (9/9) • Discussion 3: How Can a Shallow Mind Become Deep?

Krishnamurti: Effort To Be Intelligent Is Not IntelligentOjai 1966, Public Meetings9/9: How Can a Shallow Mind Become Deep?
How can a mind that is dull, superficial, petty, self-concentred, become deep?
What do we mean by a shallow, petty, narrow mind, full of opinions, judgments and self-concerned activity?
Is comparison the centre of shallowness?
We have been trained by society in education to compare, and that has conditioned me. Can I instantly break this?
The seeker is the maker of shallowness.

145 • Ojai & Brockwood Park 1980 (1/15) • Conversation with David Bohm 1: The Roots of Psychological Conflict

Krishnamurti: The Ending of TimeOjai & Brockwood Park 1980, Conversations with David Bohm1/15: The Roots of Psychological Conflict
Has humanity taken a wrong turn?
What is the root of this tremendous inward conflict of humanity?
When I am trying to become something it is a constant battle.
Can the brain itself see that it is caught in time and as long as it is moving in that direction conflict is eternal, endless?
Can the mind realise, resolve a psychological problem immediately?
Has mankind journeyed through millennia to come to this: that I am nothing and therefore I am everything and all energy?

Krishnamurti: The Ending of TimeOjai & Brockwood Park 1980, Conversations with David Bohm2/15: Cleansing the Mind of the Accumulation of Time
Time is the enemy of man.
Is there a beginning which is not enmeshed in time?
We said nothingness is everything and so it is total energy. It is undiluted pure, uncorrupted energy. Is there something beyond that?
Has man ever been free from the ‘I’?
That emptiness can only exist when there is death of the particular.

147 • Ojai & Brockwood Park 1980 (3/15) • Conversation with David Bohm 3: Why Has Man Given Supreme Importance To Thought?

Krishnamurti: The Ending of TimeOjai & Brockwood Park 1980, Conversations with David Bohm3/15: Why Has Man Given Supreme Importance To Thought?
Q: Is the 'ground' indifferent to mankind, as the physical universe appears to be? 
How does one find out if there is something more than the merely physical?
Q: Why is it that theories are necessary and useful in organising facts about matter outwardly, and yet inwardly, psychologically they are in the way, of no use at all?
Seeking security for myself, for my family, for my group, for my tribe, has brought about division.
Why has man given importance to thought as the supreme thing?
If I accept I am irrational completely, I am rational.

148 • Ojai & Brockwood Park 1980 (4/15) • Conversation with David Bohm 4: Breaking the Pattern of Egocentric Activity

Krishnamurti: The Ending of TimeOjai & Brockwood Park 1980, Conversations with David Bohm4/15: Breaking the Pattern of Egocentric Activity
What will make a human being change, deeply, fundamentally, radically?
Will I, as a human being, give up my egocentric activity completely?
The more knowledge I have acquired, as I have evolved, as I have grown, as I have experienced, it has strengthened me, and I have been walking on that path for millennia. Perhaps I may have to look at this problem totally differently - which is not to walk on that path at all; discard all knowledge I have acquired.
Explanations have been the boat on which to cross to the other shore. The man on the other shore says there is no boat. Cross! 
What happens to me when I meet something that is completely solid, immovable, absolutely true?
Psychological knowledge has made us dull.

149 • Ojai & Brockwood Park 1980 (5/15) • Conversation with David Bohm 5: The Ground of Being, and the Mind of Man

Krishnamurti: The Ending of TimeOjai & Brockwood Park 1980, Conversations with David Bohm5/15: The Ground of Being, and the Mind of Man
Why has having ideas become so important?
What is the difference between a religious mind and a philosophic mind?
What is the human mind’s relationship to the ground?
Why has man accumulated knowledge?
When you love somebody there is no ‘me’, it is love. In the same way, when I say I am humanity, it is so. It is not an idea, it is not a conclusion, it is part of me.
There is only one thing and that is to discover that what I have done is useless, ashes. You see, that doesn’t depress one. That is the beauty of it. It is like the Phoenix, born out of ashes.

150 • Ojai & Brockwood Park 1980 (6/15) • Conversation with David Bohm 6: Can Insight Bring About a Mutation of the Brain Cells?

Krishnamurti: The Ending of TimeOjai & Brockwood Park 1980, Conversations with David Bohm6/15: Can Insight Bring About a Mutation of the Brain Cells?
Can insight change the brain cells?
In the brain is there an activity which is not touched by consciousness?
Insight is not dependent on the material process, which is thought.Where there is violence, peace cannot exist. Where there is peace, is there violence?
As insight is causeless, is not born out of cause, that insight has a definite effect on that which has cause.
The material process acts in ignorance, in darkness. This flash of insight enlightens the whole field, which means ignorance, darkness has been dispelled.
