To know yourself you need not go to any book, to any priest, to any psychologist. The whole treasure is within yourself.
Jiddu KrishnamurtiThe ending is the beginning, and the beginning is the first step, and the first step is the only step.
Jiddu KrishnamurtiWhen you do not name a group of people, you are compelled to look at each individual face and not treat them all as the mass.
Jiddu KrishnamurtiWhy is one a slave to thought ? Why has thought become so important in all our lives -thought being ideas, being the response to the accumulated memories in the brain cells? Perhaps many of you have not even asked such a question before, or if you have you may have said, "it's of very little importance- what is important is emotion." But I don't see how you can separate the two. If thought does not give continuity to feeling, feeling dies very quickly. So why in our daily lives, in our grinding, boring, frightened lives, has thought taken on such inordinate importance?
