The man who lives without conflict, who lives with beauty and love, is not frightened of death because to love is to die.
Jiddu KrishnamurtiAwareness is that state of mind which takes in everything-the crows flying across the sky, the flowers on the trees, the people sitting in front, the colors they are wearing - being extensively aware, which needs watching, observing, taking in the shape of the leaf, the shape of the trunk, the shape of the head of another, what he is doing.
Jiddu KrishnamurtiWar is a stage brought about by the standardizing of thought, revolt, and life - not by the freedom of life, not by the revolt of life.
Jiddu KrishnamurtiAs the beauty of the picture depends not on the painter but on the picture itself, what I say must depend on its own intrinsic value and not on the authority of my attainment, nor on the authority of others.
Jiddu KrishnamurtiThe word 'innocence' means 'incapable of being hurt'. To have a mind that is not capable of being hurt, does not mean that it has built up a lot of resistance - on the contrary, such a mind is dying to everything that it has known in which there has been conflict, pleasure and pain. Only then is the mind innocent; that means it can love. You cannot love with memory, love is not a matter of remembrance, of time.
