Krishnamurti: To Learn About Myself Means Observing Without the Past Santa Monica 1970, Public Meetings 4/4: Inquiring Into Religion and Meditation Religion has become a matter of propaganda. One must be free of belief to find truth. Energy is necessary, and the body must be extraordinarily sensitive. Systems, practices and methods imply habit. Yoga is a way of life, not just practising exercises to keep young. Awareness, concentration and attention. The meaning and beauty of meditation. What is the quality of the mind that has come so far without effort? Q: I experienced the observer and the observed being one. Q: What can we do when we realise the past is interposed between inner and outer? Q: Why do you have greater awareness of ‘what is’ than I do? What is your secret? Q: Did you say that to be free we should have no teachers? Q: Attention and discipline, how do you put them together? Q: Do you eat meat or fish? Q: What is humour? - The Krishnamurti Collection is an official podcast by Krishnamurti Foundation Trust.

196 • Santa Monica 1970 (2/4) • Talk 2: You Cannot Be Free of Fear Without Understanding Pleasure

Krishnamurti: To Learn About Myself Means Observing Without the Past Santa Monica 1970, Public Meetings 2/4: You Cannot Be Free of Fear Without Understanding Pleasure There is no such thing as gradually getting rid of fear. There is physical fear and various subtle forms of psychological fears, hidden and open. In analysis, there is always the analyser and the thing analysed. What is pleasure? What place has thought? What is the quality of mind that sees that thought must function and also the danger of thought? Q: Most of us are frightened of the unknown. Is that the basis of fear? Q: I have read the expression, ‘Father, I believe, help thou my disbelief.’ How can we…?

195 • Santa Monica 1970 (1/4) • Talk 1: To Look at Violence Without the Past

Krishnamurti: To Learn About Myself Means Observing Without the Past Santa Monica 1970, Public Meetings 1/4: To Look at Violence Without the Past What is one to do in this chaotic world? What is right conduct? Seeing needs freedom from the image you have about yourself. We are violent; that is an absolute fact. How do you look at it? Do you condemn it? Do you justify it? If you can look without fragments, you look at the whole without the observer. One must observe not only at the conscious level but also at the deep recesses of the mind. Q: When the observer becomes the observed, a state of nowness exists. Q: How can we reveal ourselves to each other? Q: Why do you separate the conscious from the unconscious if you do not believe in separation? - The Krishnamurti Collection is an official podcast by Krishnamurti Foundation Trust.

194 • San Francisco 1975 (4/4) • Talk 4: The Art of Meditation

Krishnamurti: Meditation Is the Transformation of the Mind San Francisco 1975, Public Meetings 4/4: The Art of Meditation In meditation, one must understand the significance of thought, its value and its total irrelevancy in going beyond measurement. Meditation implies freedom from measurement and time. There is no control or discipline of thought in meditation because the one who disciplines is a fragment of thought. Don’t follow anybody, including the speaker, or any system because this will make your mind dull. Can the mind can be absolutely still? That which is still has great energy. Meditation is non-directive, with no operation of will. - The Krishnamurti Collection is an official podcast by Krishnamurti Foundation Trust.
