Is it Possible to Live with Total Lucidity? (Krishnamurti with Dr. Hus
In his introductory statement, Dr. Huston Smith describes Krishnamurti as a sage of our century. Krishnamurti and Dr. Huston Smith inquire into the question of lucidity and ask whether it is possible to live in this world with total lucidity. As Krishnamurti often does, he begins with an examination of the question and sets out to define the word lucidity.
Krishnamurti asks, “Is it possible for a human being living in this world to find within himself a clarity that is constant, that is true, in the sense, not contradictory, is it possible for a human being to find it?” Krishnamurti goes on to explain that he feels it is possible.

Jiddu Krishnamurti lived from 1895 to 1986, and is regarded as one of the greatest philosophical and spiritual figures of the twentieth century. Krishnamurti claimed no allegiance to any caste, nationality or religion and was bound by no tradition. His purpose was to set humankind unconditionally free from the destructive limitations of conditioned mind. For nearly sixty years he traveled the world and spoke spontaneously to large audiences until the end of his life in 1986 at the age of ninety. He had no permanent home, but when not traveling, he often stayed in Ojai, California, Brockwood Park, England, and in Chennai, India. In his talks, he pointed out to people the need to transform themselves through self knowledge, by being aware of the subtleties of their thoughts and feelings in daily life, and how this movement can be observed through the mirror of relationship.
