The Krishnamurti Collection

Krishnamurti Foundation Trust

The Krishnamurti Collection is an official podcast by Krishnamurti Foundation Trust.

Across this wide selection of events, from public talks to in-depth conversations, Krishnamurti explores fundamental questions of human existence: the nature of thought, fear and desire; the roots of conflict and conditioning; and whether the mind can be free – questions 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.’

This podcast sits alongside 'Urgency of Change: The Krishnamurti Podcast', which features carefully curated extracts on over 200 topics. The Krishnamurti Collection, by contrast, makes complete recordings available in a convenient format, preserving the unedited, natural unfolding of each talk.

Established by Krishnamurti in 1968, Krishnamurti Foundation Trust is a non-profit charity based at Brockwood Park in the UK, which is also home to The Krishnamurti Centre and Brockwood Park School. To learn more about our activities and retreat programmes, and to donate, please visit:

29 • Ojai 1976 (3/9) • Discussion 1: What Is the Function of Learning?
Krishnamurti: Thought Can Never Change Man Ojai 1976, Public Meetings 3/9: What Is the Function of Learning? Why are we being educated? Can anybody help me to learn about myself? Can you observe without verbalising? Why are human beings in conflict? Is contradiction two opposing desires? Where there is comparison there must be envy, imitation and the desire to conform to a pattern. Can you look at the feeling of envy as it arises? Can you look without conclusion, opinion or judgement? As long as there is a division between the observer and the observed, there must be conflict. - The Krishnamurti Collection is an official podcast by Krishnamurti Foundation Trust.

28 • Ojai 1976 (2/9) • Talk 2: Why Is Thought Fragmentary?
Krishnamurti: Thought Can Never Change Man Ojai 1976, Public Meetings 2/9: Why Is Thought Fragmentary? What is the nature of thought? Why has thought divided you and me, we and they? Why has thought invented ideals? The interference of the observer, who is the past, prevents a radical change of ‘what is’. Our consciousness is full of the things of thought and is fragmentary. Is there a consciousness that is not fragmentary? Thought as knowledge has its right place, but it has no place in the psyche. Can the mind, the whole structure of the psyche, cease to be?

What does it mean to be related to another? When you say ‘I am hurt’, what is the ‘me’ that is hurt?

26 • San Diego 1972 (2/2) • Conversation with Eugene Schallert 2: Ending Disorder Is the Ending of Death
Krishnamurti: Goodness Only Flowers in Freedom San Diego 1972, Conversations with Eugene Schallert 2/2: Ending Disorder Is the Ending of Death Inwardly we are all in a state of confusion. Love is total attention. All this brings us to the question whether man can change at all. How is it possible for a human being to bring about a total psychological revolution? What is pleasure and joy? To understand pleasure is far more important than to understand joy. What is death? Is there such thing as a permanent entity? First understand what it means to live, not what it means to die. To not belong means to stand alone. When you have order you don’t belong to disorder. - The Krishnamurti Collection is an official podcast by Krishnamurti Foundation Trust.

Krishnamurti: Goodness Only Flowers in Freedom San Diego 1972, Conversations with Eugene Schallert 1/2: Goodness Only Flowers in Freedom Freedom is the negation of being conditioned by any culture, religious or political division. What separates man, divides human beings? Goodness only flowers in freedom. It doesn’t flower within the law of religious sanctions or religious beliefs. The ‘me’ is the root of separation. Is it possible to completely empty the mind of the ‘me’? How is the content to be emptied in one stroke, so that the mind is really empty, active and therefore capable of perception? - The Krishnamurti Collection is an official podcast by Krishnamurti Foundation Trust.

Krishnamurti: Meditation Is the Total Release of Energy Brockwood Park 1971, Public Meetings 6/6: Meditation Is the Total Release of Energy How is one to have the quality of energy which is without friction? When you practise a method in order to achieve enlightenment, bliss, a quiet mind or a state of tranquillity, it obviously makes the mind mechanical. Q: What do you mean by observing greed without naming it as greed? Is it the same as observing the action of the past without naming it? How is one to observe the whole content of consciousness, the obvious and the hidden, the superficial and the profound, in one look? Meditation is putting aside altogether everything that man has conceived of himself and the world. Q: What is intuition? Q: When one is aware of one’s sexual appetites they seem to disappear. Can that awareness, attention, be maintained all the time? Q: Can we be aware of what goes on when we are asleep? - The Krishnamurti Collection is an official podcast by Krishnamurti Foundation Trust.

Krishnamurti: Meditation Is the Total Release of Energy Brockwood Park 1971, Public Meetings 5/6: What Is the Relationship Between the Pursuit of Pleasure and Love? Why does pleasure play such an important part in our lives? When there is the quality of deep, passionate freedom, then sex has its own place. Then what is chastity? The word ‘innocence’ means a mind that does not hurt or receive hurts, but yet is totally vulnerable. Such a mind is a chaste mind. What is love? Death, love and living are interrelated.

Krishnamurti: Meditation Is the Total Release of Energy Brockwood Park 1971, Public Meetings 4/6: Can Habit End Without Decision or Choice? Q: What is the difference between analysis and examination of one’s immediate reactions? Q: I am full of fears, deep-rooted uncertainties - how am I to be completely free of them? When I analyse myself and my reactions or behaviour, there is the act and the actor. There is a division between the two and that creates conflict between ‘what is’ and ‘what should be’. At the moment of actual fear there is no division. How is it possible to look at life non-fragmentarily? What takes place when I say I am not looking for an answer, I am not expecting a thing? What goes on in the mind? To find out what death is, I must have energy. Can I live without fear? - The Krishnamurti Collection is an official podcast by Krishnamurti Foundation Trust.

The demand for psychological security is much deeper than the demand for physiological security. How is thought to function beautifully, efficiently, healthily and not create division between people? Is there a field which is not measurable by thought? There must be a learning of observation in which thought doesn’t interfere at all. How am I to be aware of the unconscious, hidden images?

Krishnamurti: A Wholly Different Way of Living San Diego 1974, Conversations with Allan W. Anderson 18/18: Meditation and the Sacred Mind Q: What place has will in meditation? Can you be choicelessly aware of this movement of desire, control, will, action? What is space? Do we have space? Can the mind have space? When the mind is occupied with family, business, God, drink, sex, is there space? When knowledge occupies the whole field of the mind there is no space. Outward space is not going to give inner space. There is no silence when there is direction. Can the mind empty itself of its content? Can the mind, the brain, the body be really silent? When the mind is utterly silent what is the immeasurable? In silence, time stops. - The Krishnamurti Collection is an official podcast by Krishnamurti Foundation Trust.

Krishnamurti: A Wholly Different Way of Living San Diego 1974, Conversations with Allan W. Anderson 17/18: Meditation, a Quality of Attention That Pervades All of One’s Life Q: What is meditation? Do we accept the orthodox, traditional, Christian, Hindu, Buddhist, Sufi meditation, or could we put away all that and ask: what is meditation? To start from not knowing what meditation is, then I'm free to flow in the inquiry. Is meditation divorced from daily living or does meditation cover the whole field of existence? In my inquiry am I awake or is the past so alive that it is dictating my life in the present? Is there a way of living without control?

What is religion, what is God, what is immortality, what is beauty? Can the mind put aside totally the structure of thought with regard to religion? Can the mind be free of the authority of another, however divine or not divine? Can the mind put away everything that man has taught, invented, imagined about religion, God? Can wisdom be sought through a book, a teacher, from another, through sacrifice, torture, renunciation? Can the mind be free of all the things that are born of fear, desire, pleasure?

In the West and the East, in the world of Islam, Buddhism or Christianity the same principle goes on, worshipping an image which has been created. It is the human being that has created the image. Can the mind observe this phenomenon and see its own demand for security, permanency, and deny all that? Why does the mind divide life, accepting authority in one way and denying it in another? We accept the tyranny of a petty little guru with fanciful ideas and reject a political tyranny or a dictatorship. What is the importance of authority?

If one is not frightened then what is death? What is it one is frightened of in death? Is it of losing the content of consciousness? Death becomes living when the content of consciousness, which makes its own frontier, its own limitations, comes to an end. Can that content empty itself? Can the mind be aware totally of all the content: the collective, the personal, the racial, the transitory? You can only incarnate now when you die to the content. You can be reborn, regenerate totally if you die to the content. So living is dying. Living, love and death are one, moving and indivisible, and that is immortal. - The Krishnamurti Collection is an official podcast by Krishnamurti Foundation Trust.

13 • San Diego 1974 (13/18) • Conversation with Allan W. Anderson 13: A Different Way of Living
Krishnamurti: A Wholly Different Way of Living San Diego 1974, Conversations with Allan W. Anderson 13/18: A Different Way of Living Q: What is living? What actually is existence, living, this whole field of man's endeavour to better himself, not only in the technological world but also psychologically? Man wants to be different, he wants to be more than he is. Isn't the way we live most impractical, an insane way of living, destructive, with utter indifference to the earth? Is this the way to behave, to appreciate the beauty of living? Is there a way of living without conflict? As a human being am I ever conscious? And what is consciousness? Is consciousness its content? Is death a continuity of that consciousness, or the ending of consciousness with its content? - The Krishnamurti Collection is an official podcast by Krishnamurti Foundation Trust.

12 • San Diego 1974 (12/18) • Conversation with Allan W. Anderson 12: Love, Sex and Pleasure
Krishnamurti: A Wholly Different Way of Living San Diego 1974, Conversations with Allan W. Anderson 12/18: Love, Sex and Pleasure Q: What is love? Is love pleasure, the expression of desire? Is love the fulfilment of sexual appetite? Is love the pursuit of a desired end? Is love a thing that can be cultivated? Love has been identified with sex which means, basically, with pleasure. Why have we made sex such an enormous, fantastic, romantic, sentimental affair? What is the relationship of joy, enjoyment and pleasure to love? To come upon this thing called love you must understand the place of pleasure. A mind that has been trained, sustained in this rotten social conditioning must first free itself before it can talk about love. - The Krishnamurti Collection is an official podcast by Krishnamurti Foundation Trust.

11 • San Diego 1974 (11/18) • Conversation with Allan W. Anderson 11: Being Hurt and Hurting Others
Krishnamurti: A Wholly Different Way of Living San Diego 1974, Conversations with Allan W. Anderson 11/18: Being Hurt and Hurting Others Q: What is a religious life? The word ‘religion’ means gathering together all energy, at all levels, so that it will bring about great attention. Can the mind be so totally attentive that the unnameable comes into being? What is the quality, structure, nature of a mind, and therefore of a heart and brain, that can perceive something beyond the measurement of thought, something that is not only sacred and holy in itself but that is capable of seeing something immense? In discussing religion we ought to inquire into the nature of hurt, because a mind that is not hurt is an innocent mind. Can our hurts be healed so that not a mark is left and can future hurts be prevented, without any resistance? - The Krishnamurti Collection is an official podcast by Krishnamurti Foundation Trust.

10 • San Diego 1974 (10/18) • Conversation with Allan W. Anderson 10: The Art of Listening
Krishnamurti: A Wholly Different Way of Living San Diego 1974, Conversations with Allan W. Anderson 10/18: The Art of Listening Q: What is seeing? What is listening? What is learning? Do we see actually or through a screen darkly, through a screen of prejudice, a screen of our experiences, wishes, pleasures, fears, between us and the object of perception? Do we ever see the thing at all? Does the act of listening bring about complete freedom from all statements? Is the mind completely attentive? Then the mind is extraordinarily free to act. Then the seeing is doing. I learn in order to gain reward or avoid punishment. I learn a particular job or craft to earn a livelihood. Is learning a process of accumulation? Is there any other kind of learning that is not accumulating, and acting from that? Have we learned anything from sorrow? What is there to learn? - The Krishnamurti Collection is an official podcast by Krishnamurti Foundation Trust.
