Seminars at Brockwood Park, UK - June 1984 (3-DVD Set)
Disc 1: What is thought?
Disc 2: Is there an action in which there is no limitation?
Disc 3: Can thought come to an end?
Can one observe the structure and nature of the brain in oneself, rather than externally?
Is it necessary to have a theory or model to see what is actually going on?
Why do we divide the brain at all?
What is thought? What is thinking?
The observer is the past, memory, knowledge, experience. Can I look at something without the past?
Psychologically, why should I accumulate?
If action is ‘I will do’ or ‘I have done’, it is not action. Action is now.
When the observer is the observed there is a radical change in the brain.
To change a physical habit is fairly simple but a psychological habit demands much greater energy.
I have an insight that going north is futile, and the insight says go east, and I move. There is no interval in this movement.
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.
