There is nothing there - no soul - there is only this question about after death. The question has to die now to find the answer - your answer; not my answer - because the question is born out of the assumption, the belief, that there is something to continue after death.
U.G. KrishnamurtiThere is no such thing as experience here. You seem to know, you imagine. Imagination must come to an end...I don't know how to put it. The absence of imagination, the absence of will, the absence of effort, the absence of all movement in any direction, on any level, in any dimension - THAT is the thing. That is a thing that cannot be experienced at all. It is not an experience.
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. KrishnamurtiThe plain fact is that if you don't have a problem, you create one. If you don't have a problem you don't feel that you are living.
U.G. KrishnamurtiYour constant utilization of thought to give continuity to your separate self is you. There is nothing there inside you other than that.
U.G. KrishnamurtiMy interest is to point out to you that you can walk, and please throw away all those crutches. If you are really handicapped, I wouldnโt advise you to do any such thing. But you are made to feel by other people that you are handicapped so that they could sell you those crutches. Throw them away and you can walk. Thatโs all that I can say. โIf I fall....โ - that is your fear. Put the crutches away, and you are not going to fall.
U.G. Krishnamurti
