While one is young is the time to investigate, to experiment with everything. The school should help its young people to discover their vocations and responsibilities, and not merely cram their minds with facts and technical knowledge; it should be the soil in which they can grow without fear, happily and integrally.

Do you know that even when you look at a tree and say, `That is an oak tree', or `that is a banyan tree', the naming of the tree, which is botanical knowledge, has so conditioned your mind that the word comes between you and actually seeing the tree? To come in contact with the tree you have to put your hand on it and the word will not help you to touch it.

All outward forms of change brought about by wars, revolutions, reformations, laws and ideologies have failed completely to change the basic nature of man and therefore of society.
J. KrishnamurtiThe primary cause of disorder in ourselves is the seeking of reality promised by another.

Fear is the destructive energy in man. It withers the mind, it distorts thought, it leads to all kinds of extraordinarily clever and subtle theories, absurd superstitions, dogmas, and beliefs.

But if you have no relationship with the living things on this earth, you may lose whatever relationship you have with humanity.

What has validity is your living, not what happens tomorrow.
J. Krishnamurtiسوف أكون غامضاً بجلاء؛ أستطيع أن أكون فى العموم واضحاً، ولكن ليس فى نيتى أن أكون كذلك. ذلك أنه حالما يتم تعريف شىء، يموت
J. KrishnamurtiWhy are we such tortured human beings, with tears in our eyes and false laughter on our lips? If you could walk alone among those hills or in the woods or along the long, white, bleached sands, in that solitude you would know what meditation is. The ecstasy of solitude comes when you are not frightened to be alone no longer belonging to the world or attached to anything. Then, like that dawn that came up this morning, it comes silently, and makes a golden path in the very stillness, which was at the beginning, which is now, and which will be always there.

Andar sempre a procura de «experiências transcendentes», mais variadas e intensas, é uma forma de fugir da realidade presente, daquilo que é, ou seja, de nós mesmos, da nossa própria mente condicionada. Uma mente desperta, inteligente, livre, que necessidade tem dessas experiências?
A luz é luz, não anda à procura de mais luz.
