New York 1971 - Public Talk 4 - Can the mind become quiet?

Summary:

A mind that is inquiring into the question of religion must be free entirely of any form of belief or fear.

In the very inquiry into disorder, there is order.

The mind has to find out whether the brain cells which have developed through millennia in knowledge can be totally quiet, and respond to a dimension it does not know.

Meditation is the emptying of the mind of will.

Q: If one can have the privilege of becoming aware, how can one then help those who are conditioned, to become receptive and aware?

Q: What is the relationship between consciousness and seeing things exactly as they are?

Q: Could you talk about psychological time?

This channel is managed by the Krishnamurti Foundation Trust​​, UK​, and by the Krishnamurti Foundation of America.

The role of the foundations was described by Krishnamurti when he said,​ ​'The foundations will see to it that these teachings are kept whole, are not distorted, are not made corrupt. They will not give rise to any sectarian spirit in their activities... nor create any kind of place of worship around the teachings or the person.​'​

We maintain extensive archives of Krishnamurti's original works and all four Krishnamurti foundations are actively engaged in the publication of material in various forms.

Our videos contain thousands of subtitles in more than 25 languages, translated by volunteers from all over the world. If you would like to help us with translating subtitles, please contact us at [email protected]
