Story
What is truth, and what is reality? 18 May 1975. Duration: 70 minutes. What is truth, and what is reality? Anything that thought thinks about or reacts upon or projects - that is reality. And that reality has nothing to do with truth. The art of seeing is to place reality where it is and not move that in order to get truth. You can't get truth. How am I to empty that consciousness and yet retain knowledge - otherwise I couldn't function - and reach a state which will comprehend reality?

Story
Is thought detrimental? 15 August 1965. Duration: 63 minutes. Why does one seek pleasure? Can the mind face only facts and not thought? Why have I never said, 'Thought is poison' to myself? Meeting something one doesn't know, facing something which has no answer. Acting without knowing. What is a state of mind which is silent? Time is detrimental. Are we twisting everything to our core of pleasure?

Story
A radical transformation in the psyche itself. 8 November 1968. Duration: 80 minutes. To communicate we must know that the word is not the thing and also be in that state of mind whose quality is attention, care. That can take place only if we are serious. We are the world, and the world is us. To bring about a radical transformation, which is so essential in society, there must be radical transformation in ourselves.

Complete freedom from thought. 9 September 1972. Duration: 76 minutes. Learning is instant perception and action. What place has thought in learning? To learn about freedom, must thought be completely silent? Does insight into freedom take time? Can thinking, however rational, bring about a psychological revolution in us? Is thought always conditioned? Is freedom the nonexistence of thought?

The role of the teacher. 26 March 1971. Duration: 56 minutes. There is much talk of a spiritual revolution among young people. Do you see in this very mixed phenomenon any hope of a new flowering for civilisation or possibility of growth? One can go into oneself at tremendous depths and find out everything. To go into oneself is the problem. Not being able to do it, we ask for help. If there were no books, no gurus, what would you do?

Story
During his life, Jiddu Krishnamurti (1895-1986) was known for his ability to see the core issues of our day with a timeless vision. With a gift for crossing the barriers of time, space, and spirit, he influenced a host of great 20th-century minds, including George Bernard Shaw, Aldous Huxley, and Henry Miller. In Truth Is a Pathless Land, Krishnamurti discusses a startling constellation of philosophical issues: love, greed, violence, separation, time, death, conflict, and fear.

Publisher's Summary
- To look without a concept is to be aware of the observer and the thing observed. 20 May 1967. Duration: 88 minutes.
- Where there is pleasure, there is the shadow of pain. 21 May 1967. Duration: 83 minutes.
- Is it possible to renew the mind? 24 May 1967. Duration: 81 minutes.
Violence and sorrow are not limited to the West or the East; they are parts of the human structure psychologically.
Is it possible to bring about a change radically, a total revolution in the psyche itself, not through time?
The first and last freedoms are when the mind is totally free from concepts and the mechanical process of building a formula.
It is an art to look, which is much more important than any art in the world, any painting, music or book; because when we can look so totally and completely, being directly in contact, there is an ending.
If one has cancer, how can one be free from death?
The whole movement of living, which is relationship, is a movement in action.
What is consciousness? When do you say, 'I am conscious, I am aware, I am attentive'?
Is there actually a division between the conscious and the unconscious, or it is a total movement, operating all the time?
The mind that pursues pleasure must inevitably invite its opposite, which is pain. The two go together; they are not separate.
If you love your own child, your attention to your child is fairly complete, bu tif you are a teacher you cannot give attention to all the students.
When the mind is living through imagination and thought, it is incapable of living in the complete fullness of the present.
Thought has created time - not chronological time but psychological time. That is, 'I will be', 'I should be'.
Is it possible for the brain to be quiet, to give an interval between the old and the new? This interval is the timeless nature in which thought cannot possibly enter.
That which has continuity is repetitive, which is time. It's only when time comes to an end that there is something new taking place.
To die every day to every problem, every pleasure, and not carry over any problem at all; so the mind remains tremendously attentive, active, clear.
Since love is not desire or pleasure, how does one come upon it?
Is the feeling of responsibility a part of the order and discipline you were talking about?
Why don't people get angry with what you are saying?

Thoughts is memory.
Krishnamurti will ask you to let go of self and be with his way he uses words. Once you see there is no need to go back. Be.

Before you listen
If you come to JK looking for answers or anything you are most likely frustrated quickly with what seems like rambling never to the point dialogue. Rather if you are willing to turn your ideas off and listen to him talk, without trying to understand, but like letting rain wash over you. Then when you hear the music in rain you will hear him telling you the only thing he can.

A mind stretched
This is another reminder to all those who listens to this mind and spirt. The lectures are insightful and forces awake a sleeping mind. The quality of the audio is not the best at times but it’s worth it. Will re listen several times as the lesson are quenching

Serious Inquiries Only
It's evident through the questions asked by the students in this audio that thought, or thinking, is inhibiting the answers they/we seek. I've become aware that I, too, had questions but none of which I'd find answers to other than the actual application of "going into" the question itself without judgment, a little bit of observation, but coming to know for myself from just doing it.
An excellent audio for those who have tried so many other spiritual practices and pursuits but left unfulfilled.
