Your constant utilization of thought to give continuity to your separate self is you. There is nothing there inside you other than that.
U.G. KrishnamurtiThe search ends with the realization that there is no such thing as enlightenment. By searching, you want to be free from the self, but whatever you are doing to free yourself from the self is the self. How can I make you understand this simple thing? There is no 'how'. If I tell you that, it will only add more momentum to that (search), strengthen that momentum. That is the question of all questions: "How, how, how?"
U.G. KrishnamurtiFood, clothing and shelter โ these are the basic needs. Beyond that, if you want anything, it is the beginning of self-deception.
U.G. KrishnamurtiMan is just a memory. You understand things around you by the help of the knowledge that was put in you. You perhaps need the artist to explain his modern art, but you don't need anybody's help to understand a flower. You can deal with anything, you can do anything if you do not waste your energy trying to achieve imaginary goals.
U.G. Krishnamurti
