Think On These Things
I haven’t started reading it yet as I’ve been traveling. I’m sure it’s profound
I’ve noticed, in this short time of reading and watching videos of Krishnamurti, that his language and process of self-inquiry, produces a heightened awareness of the cognitive experience. He taps into one of the distinguishing features of being human (as far as we know), that we are aware that we are aware, and that we think of thinking. It is in heightened awareness of that dynamic that I can then experience a sense of timelessness (in the moment? eternity?). So far, I’ve thoroughly enjoyed my journey with him. I question why the strict adherence to logic. Emotional intelligence is also part of what it means to be human, and it appears that is not a significant concern of his. I wonder what it would be like to marry logic and emotional intelligence in the same observation and process of self-inquiry.
