You have been overcome; and whether you are overcome by envy or by a so-called noble influence, you are still a slave, you are not free.
Jiddu KrishnamurtiWhether we call ourselves communists or capitalists, Hindus or Buddhists, Moslems or Christians, whether we are blind, lame, well or happy, this earth is ours...not somebody else's...it is not only the rich man's earth, but our earth...yours and mine.
Jiddu KrishnamurtiFree yourself from the psychological structure of society, which is to free yourself from the essence of conflict.
Jiddu KrishnamurtiIs there a meditation that is not the ego trying to become? Is meditation conscious if every effort implies time?
Jiddu KrishnamurtiTo revolt within society in order to make it a little better, to bring about certain reforms, is like the revolt of prisoners to improve their life within the prison walls; and such revolt is no revolt at all, it is just mutiny. Do you see the difference? Revolt within society is like the mutiny of prisoners who want better food, better treatment within the prison; but revolt born of understanding is an individual breaking away from society, and that is creative revolution.
