Krishnamurti: Can Thought Become Quiet?
Amsterdam 1968, Students Discussions
4/4: It Is Only in Freedom That There Can Be Love

When there is a response to a challenge, is that response free, in the sense unconditioned, or are all our responses conditioned? 

There is only one challenge, which we translate differently according to our conditioning. The challenge is: be free. 

Is there freedom from the mechanical habits that the brain has developed?

To be free I have to ask if there can be an end to thought. 

Can you look at a flower without thinking?
