Krishnamurti: United Nations Talks
New York 1984, United Nations Talks
1/2: The Causes of War
Will institutions and foundations ever bring peace on earth?
Why are human beings so conditioned?
If there is no security in our relationship with each other, that is the beginning of conflict and war.
We are responsible for every kind of war.
Is it possible, not merely intellectually but actually in our daily life, to radically change, bring about deep mutation?
Q: You have given us a bleak and pessimistic picture of the world in which we live and of ourselves. Do you see any positive signs around?
Q: How do we go about the attainment of psychological security within ourselves?
Q: I wonder what proportion of humanity would be able to respond to the very good sense of your comments.

The Krishnamurti Collection is an official podcast by Krishnamurti Foundation Trust.
Across this wide selection of events, Krishnamurti explores fundamental questions of human existence that touch our daily lives and relationships. Each episode of the podcast features a full-length Krishnamurti recording from the Foundation’s archives, with a new series released every week.
Krishnamurti is widely regarded as one of the greatest philosophers and teachers of all time. For seven decades, he spoke to large audiences around the world, as well as with notable individuals and small groups. Krishnamurti stressed that ‘There is hope in humanity, not in society, not in systems, not in organised religious systems, but in you and in me.’
