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.

Krishnamurti: Meditation Is the Transformation of the Mind San Francisco 1975, Public Meetings 3/4: Why Have We Not Been Able To Resolve Suffering?

192 • San Francisco 1975 (2/4) • Talk 2: What Is the Relationship of Knowledge to Transformation?

Krishnamurti: Meditation Is the Transformation of the Mind San Francisco 1975, Public Meetings 2/4: What Is the Relationship of Knowledge to Transformation? What place has thought in bringing about a totally different quality of mind and heart? Knowledge has its place, but it cannot bring about a psychological revolution. What will? What is the energy that will change man? Find out whether the mind can be free from fear. Fear in all its forms limits energy, confines it, darkens it. Is love pleasure? A mind that evokes pictures of pleasure, sexual or otherwise, is an unchaste mind. Is love memory?

191 • San Francisco 1975 (1/4) • Talk 1: Freedom Is Necessary To Investigate Into Oneself

Krishnamurti: Meditation Is the Transformation of the Mind San Francisco 1975, Public Meetings 1/4: Freedom Is Necessary To Investigate Into Oneself Freedom implies that one can inquire within oneself, to examine the whole structure of the human mind. It is necessary to be free to find out what is true and false for yourself, which no system, philosophy or guru can tell you. Can the mind look at itself, observe without any distortion? Who is the observer? To learn about oneself is to observe without the observer, to see without distortion, prejudice and fear.

190 • San Diego 1972 (2/2) • Conversation with Allan W. Anderson 2: What Is the Point of Education?

Krishnamurti: It’s Only When the Mind Is Quiet You See Things Clearly San Diego 1972, Conversations with Allan W. Anderson 2/2: What Is the Point of Education? What is the function of an educator? Why in the modern world are children so violent, disorganized? What is meditation? Meditation is to cleanse the mind of every form of deception. It’s only when the mind is quiet you see things clearly.  Any conscious effort to meditate is not meditation. Self-knowing is so much more important than meditation.  Wisdom is self-knowing. There is no wisdom in a book. - The Krishnamurti Collection is an official podcast by Krishnamurti Foundation Trust.
