More of Krishnamurti World – Website of J Krishnamurti in English

“One
is always seeking endlessly.

But what we are really seeking is not clarity, is not the understanding of the
actual state of life, but rather we are searching for ways and means to escape.
When one observes all this – the increasing population, the deteriorating
environment, the utter disregard for others’ feelings, for others’ lives, the
utter neglect of the social structure – one wonders if order out of this chaos
can be brought about.”

“We need order.

There is a great deal of disorder, both in us and in our surroundings, of which
one is vaguely, speculatively, casually aware. One feels the problems are too
immense. Yet most of us ask ourselves, “What can I do as a human being living in
this chaotic misery, violence, stupidity? What can I do?” The invariable
answer is “very little”. There one stops. But the problem demands a much deeper
answer.”

What then is the answer?

What Krishnamurti means to me

In November I met J.Krishnamurti, a man who didnt fit any category at all. He was giving a series of daily talks at Rajghat in Benaras. Not only was he not a Christian,
he was not a Hindu, not a Buddhist. That was just his point. Truth is a
pathless land, he said. You cant approach it by any path whatsoever, by any
religion, by any sect. He didnt say, Follow me. On the contrary, he said, I
desire those who seek to understand me to be free, not to follow me, not to make
out of me a cage which will become a religion, a sect. He did not care for the
labels of any religion. Indeed, he observed the way in which we fearfully,
anxiously, shape our whole lives by religious, political, cultural, and personal
labels and names all of which function as a buffer zone of security between
ourselves and the experience of life.
