The transformation of man

This popular series of dialogues with scientists, held in 1976 between Krishnamurti, Dr. David Bohm, and Dr. David Shainberg, delve deeply into the quintessential questions facing each individual that sees the need to bring about a radical, fundamental change in human consciousness.

From the DVD:

Q: Mr Krishnamurti, how can the viewer best share in these dialogues? How can he gain the most from this experience?

Krishnamurti: I think it all depends how serious you are. How serious in the sense of how deeply you want to go into these questions, which is after all your life. We are not discussing theoretically some abstract hypothesis, but we are dealing with actual daily life of every human being, whether he lives in India, or here, or in America, or anywhere else.

We are dealing with the actual facts of fear, pleasure, sorrow, death and if there is anything sacred in life. Because if we don't find something real, something that is true life has very little meaning.

So if you are really serious to go into this matter very carefully and with care, with attention, then you can share a great deal. But you have to be serious, really serious. And if you listen to it, listen with care, with attention, with a sense of affection, not agreeing or disagreeing, that anybody can do, but if you really care to find out how to live properly, what is right relationship between human beings, then you will share completely, I think, with all that we discuss or have a dialogue about during the next few days.
