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:

Krishnamurti: When You Observe ‘What Is’, There Is No Conflict Madras 1981/82, Public Meetings 4/8: 2nd Question & Answer Meeting Q1: We live in a corrupt and unjust society. Is there no place in your teaching to fight on behalf of the victims of injustice? Q2: What is the place of right action in one’s quest for self-knowledge? Q3: Even though I am able to bring about order within myself, the disorder and pressure of the world around me constantly affect my daily life. Is it possible to remain unaffected?

Krishnamurti: When You Observe ‘What Is’, There Is No Conflict Madras 1981/82, Public Meetings 3/8: 1st Question & Answer Meeting Q1: Without conflict or struggle in the sense of desire to improve, how can there be any progress, material or social, in the world? The desire to change supplies the motive force for work towards achievement and progress. If you accept ‘what is’ then how can there be any kind of progress? Q2: Tell us, sir, what should be done seriously to help the country and the people of the country, for no philosophy, nor books, nor talks, can solve these problems. Q3: What is sorrow? Q4: What is the nature of freedom? Why does it happen? - The Krishnamurti Collection is an official podcast by Krishnamurti Foundation Trust.

107 • Madras 1981/82 (2/8) • Talk 2: Why Have We Become Habituated To Conflict?
Krishnamurti: When You Observe ‘What Is’, There Is No Conflict Madras 1981/82, Public Meetings 2/8: Why Have We Become Habituated To Conflict? Why have human beings not solved the problem of conflict with each other and in themselves? When we do not accept what actually is but escape to an ideal, the opposite of ‘what is’, then conflict is inevitable. Non-violence is non-fact, not a reality but a projection of thought to escape, or to accept violence and pretend that we are becoming non-violent. Can you look at your wife or your husband without the memory of the past? It is possible to live without conflict. When you observe ‘what is’, there is no conflict. Goodness means to be holistic, to be whole, not fragmented. - The Krishnamurti Collection is an official podcast by Krishnamurti Foundation Trust.

106 • Madras 1981/82 (1/8) • Talk 1: How Do We Psychologically Respond to the Present Condition of the World?
Krishnamurti: When You Observe ‘What Is’, There Is No Conflict Madras 1981/82, Public Meetings 1/8: How Do We Psychologically Respond to the Present Condition of the World? If we do not observe the world carefully, we have no criteria by which to judge when we turn inwardly. Why have we given such extraordinary importance to thought? Thinking is the beginning of memory; without memory there is no thinking. We are a mass of collective remembrance of things past. We are functioning psychologically on memory as the ‘me’ and the ‘you’. Is there knowledge about oneself? Do we know ourselves? Are you individual? Is it possible to be utterly free from all the content of our consciousness? What is it that is hurt? Is it the image you have about yourself? What is the capacity of a brain which is functioning holistically? Is it possible to live without a single conflict? - The Krishnamurti Collection is an official podcast by Krishnamurti Foundation Trust.

105 • Madras 1979/80 (7/7) • Talk 6: Sorrow, Death and Meditation
Krishnamurti: The Seed of a Million Years Madras 1979/80, Public Meetings 7/7: Sorrow, Death and Meditation How do you approach any problem, physical or psychological? What is the relationship between sorrow and passion? Sorrow indicates a state of mind in which there is pain, grief, tears, a sense of immense loneliness and isolation. Without passion you can never be free or creative. Why are we excluding death from living? Examining your own life, what is your life? When you realise the fact that you are the rest of mankind, what is death? To a man whose mind is the universe of humanity there is no death. Whatever he is doing, he is ending, never carrying. Why is it important to meditate? There must be somewhere something that is not perishable, that is incorruptible, timeless, eternal. That seed has been sown in man from time immemorial. Can we end psychological registering? Meditation can never be conscious, can never be thought out, premeditated. - The Krishnamurti Collection is an official podcast by Krishnamurti Foundation Trust.

104 • Madras 1979/80 (6/7) • Talk 5: Why Does the Mind Live in Concepts?
Krishnamurti: The Seed of a Million Years Madras 1979/80, Public Meetings 6/7: Why Does the Mind Live in Concepts? Can the human mind be free of concepts? Is the making of concept an escape from action? Can you listen and not make a concept but apply? Is fear the word ‘fear’? Integrity means saying things that you actually mean. Time will not solve fear but will complicate the issue. When you listen completely there is no movement of thought but merely observation. The mind seeking pleasure is invariably attached to the action that brings pleasure. Is there time at all psychologically? Can the brain free itself from its tradition without time? When there is a clear, total sensory response there is no centre from which you are observing. Pleasure like fear is the movement of time. If there is any form of attachment there is no love. How will you have this flower, the great beauty of love? - The Krishnamurti Collection is an official podcast by Krishnamurti Foundation Trust.

103 • Madras 1979/80 (5/7) • Discussion 1: Bringing Together All One’s Energy To Look at a Problem
Krishnamurti: The Seed of a Million Years Madras 1979/80, Public Meetings 5/7: Bringing Together All One’s Energy To Look at a Problem Is our psychological pain as acute as toothache, or are we aware of it after it has taken place? Do we see the absurdity, the futility of escape? If one sees that escape does not solve the problem, what does one do with the problem? What are the implications of analysis? Who is it that is analysing, thinking the analyser is different from the problem? Can I decide immediately to end a problem, not take time or move away from it? Intelligence can only operate in the moment. Do not allow time as a means of solution of a problem. It is only when there is inattention that quarrels begin. When there is complete attention on both sides there is no quarrel, no division. Time is one of the most destructive factors; time is death. - The Krishnamurti Collection is an official podcast by Krishnamurti Foundation Trust.

102 • Madras 1979/80 (4/7) • Talk 4: A Mind Living in Control, Conflict and Desire Is Never Free
Krishnamurti: The Seed of a Million Years Madras 1979/80, Public Meetings 4/7: A Mind Living in Control, Conflict and Desire Is Never Free Our minds are chattering, thought moving from one association or desire to another, a contradiction of opposing energies. Within the mind can there ever be freedom? If not, man is everlastingly slave to the known. Is it possible to go beyond the process of time? The immediate is far more important than the future. The mind has become accustomed, trained, conditioned to time, with no question of immediate action. The immediate dissolves time. One has to understand the nature of desire, not suppress it, control it or run away from it. Desire comes through the movement of thought creating the image. Thought pursues that image which becomes desire. Why does thought create the image? Will is the exertion of energy in a particular direction and that energy is the movement of desire. Is it possible to observe instantly and act instantly, which needs no control? - The Krishnamurti Collection is an official podcast by Krishnamurti Foundation Trust.

Krishnamurti: The Seed of a Million Years Madras 1979/80, Public Meetings 3/7: Where Is Security Found for the Brain? Why do human beings with their extraordinary brain and mind live in narrow grooves, with narrow activities, self-centred impulses and urges? There is no infinite thought, there is no complete thought. In what manner can consciousness be transformed? Our brains are trained, subjected, submitted to established outside order or inside discipline; essentially to obey. The brain has extraordinary incalculable energy and that energy is now being used in a very narrow, limited way. Intelligence is not the product of thought. When there is this intelligence there is complete and total security. What is order? When the mind is learning it is creating its own discipline, not of conformity but through attention. The awakening of intelligence is the beginning of total, happy security of human beings. Our relationship is based on memory so there is no love or happiness, nothing but disastrous division.

Krishnamurti: The Seed of a Million Years Madras 1979/80, Public Meetings 2/7: Thought Has Put Together the Whole Structure of the ‘Me’ Our minds are the result of a thousand experiences and man has been searching for an eternity. Immortality is merely the continuity of one’s own ignorance. We are questioning the cultivation through the centuries this idea of the self, the ‘me’ that must evolve through time, many births, or be saved by a saviour. We must inquire into what has created the ‘me’, the self. Reality is everything that thought has created. Nature is not created by thought. Truth has nothing whatsoever to do with thought. Can thought dissolve the structure which it has created as the ‘me’? Your approach dictates the resolution of a problem. If you approach it with any motive or try to escape, the problem will always remain. All society is based on human relationship. Because human beings are immoral, our society is immoral. We are corrupt beyond measure so we create a society that is utterly corruptible. Intelligence and love go together. Without love we cannot have intelligence. - The Krishnamurti Collection is an official podcast by Krishnamurti Foundation Trust.

Krishnamurti: The Seed of a Million Years Madras 1979/80, Public Meetings 1/7: The Flowering of the Seed of a Million Years If we are not capable of listening we are not capable of learning. Man since the beginning of time has asked if there is a reality, truth, something timeless that cannot be measured, and that inquiry, that seed, is still with us. Is it possible for that seed to grow and flower, multiply and cover the earth? That is the function, the necessity of everyone. In this world there is such confusion, violence, corruption, every form of degeneration. If we do not find that seed and let it flower we are going to destroy ourselves. Thinking is always in a straight line, moving forwards or backwards. When specialisation takes place the brain becomes smaller; the other parts of the brain become rather dull. Thought divides itself, one group of thoughts against another group. The mind, the brain has now reached a point where it is completely confused. The brain needs absolute security for that seed to flower. - The Krishnamurti Collection is an official podcast by Krishnamurti Foundation Trust.

Krishnamurti: Without Freedom From the Known, the Possible Cannot Be Captured London 1969, Public Meetings 4/4: Meditation and the Activity of Silence Is truth ever to be found by seeking? Why should one have any experience at all? Light is light; it doesn’t ask for more light. The desire for more experience is an escape from the actual, from ‘what is’. Unless one lays the foundation of virtue, meditation becomes a trick to control the mind. Any method that teaches how to meditate is obviously false. Out of awareness of inattention there is attention. You don’t have to practise awareness. What takes place when the thinker is the thought? Then does the mind wander at all? Concentration is a form of resistance. Where there is resistance there is division and conflict. Can the brain be made quiet? The activity of silence is entirely different from the quality of self-centred activity.

Krishnamurti: Without Freedom From the Known, the Possible Cannot Be Captured London 1969, Public Meetings 3/4: A Way of Living in Which There Is No Division To find a way of living with no fragmentation, one has to go deeply into what is love and death. What is the relationship between pleasure and intelligence? Is there a tomorrow psychologically? Is it possible for the mind to be free of the past so that it is not bound by time? All division must bring about conflict. What is the deeper level of the mind? Why do we give deep significance to the unconscious mind but don’t give great importance to the conscious mind? What is the relationship between love and death? Unless the mind changes radically our living has very little meaning. Can one die from day to day to everything psychologically known?

Learning and freedom go together. One cannot learn about oneself unless one is free. To learn about oneself one must observe actually as one is, not according to patterns, formulas or concepts.

95 • London 1969 (1/4) • Talk 1: Looking at Violence Without the Word
Krishnamurti: Without Freedom From the Known, the Possible Cannot Be Captured London 1969, Public Meetings 1/4: Looking at Violence Without the Word Is it possible for the mind to be entirely free from conflict? In the understanding of conflict is the possibility of right conduct. Is the analyser different from the thing analysed? What does it mean to see and understand something or to listen to somebody? The act of seeing is the act of freedom from that which is, such as violence. One has to be a teacher and pupil of oneself. There is no teacher outside. Why does one build images? The word brings its own division. Can you look at violence without the word? Questions from the audience followed the talk. - The Krishnamurti Collection is an official podcast by Krishnamurti Foundation Trust.

94 • Gstaad 1965 (6/6) • Small Group Discussion 6: When the Mind Is Completely Quiet, How Can There Be Time?
Krishnamurti: Thought, Stillness and Time Gstaad 1965, Small Group Discussions 6/6: When the Mind Is Completely Quiet, How Can There Be Time? What does time mean to you, as a human being? Is there such thing as existence? Quietness has come because I have understood the nature of time, function, thought and pleasure. What takes place when there is great intensity? Thought has a movement in function. Here there is no movement which thought can recognise, because thought is not coming into this at all. When time comes to an end, is there distance and space? If you look at the mountain without the layer of thought as function, as the experiencer, what is space? When there is no experiencer, no thinker, in that stillness is there time? Time exists only when there is an observer. - The Krishnamurti Collection is an official podcast by Krishnamurti Foundation Trust.

93 • Gstaad 1965 (5/6) • Small Group Discussion 5: A Complete Stillness
Krishnamurti: Thought, Stillness and Time Gstaad 1965, Small Group Discussions 5/6: A Complete Stillness Is there a single movement that will completely transform my whole way of life? The passion is there but the perfume doesn’t take place. What am I to do? Am I in a position of a man who for the first time is walking on a road by himself and discovering? Does one know what a complete stillness means? It is only from a very still mind that a mutation takes place. Is there an ending to thought, therefore an ending to time? If I have no thought and therefore no time, and so no wasting of energy, there is no movement, therefore there is complete stillness. Is it possible to look at everything without thought, therefore without time, and so walk with silence? - The Krishnamurti Collection is an official podcast by Krishnamurti Foundation Trust.

92 • Gstaad 1965 (4/6) • Small Group Discussion 4: From Where Do Attachment and Detachment Come?
Krishnamurti: Thought, Stillness and Time Gstaad 1965, Small Group Discussions 4/6: From Where Do Attachment and Detachment Come? What is the relationship of the brain to the totality of the mind? Fear of not being, fear of isolation, fear of not having pleasure, fear of having no relationship, is the soil from which the stem of contradiction grows. I want to be free of this stem to see what happens if there is no attachment, no detachment, because I am not afraid. Is there a peace with no entity saying, ‘I am peaceful’? - The Krishnamurti Collection is an official podcast by Krishnamurti Foundation Trust.

91 • Gstaad 1965 (3/6) • Small Group Discussion 3: What Will Make Me See That Thought Breeds Frustration?
Krishnamurti: Thought, Stillness and Time Gstaad 1965, Small Group Discussions 3/6: What Will Make Me See That Thought Breeds Frustration? What is the function of thought? Can the mind see the fact that thought will always breed frustration? Function is necessary, but function with status, position and power must breed frustration. Without frustration thought says to itself, ‘I am not seeking. I don’t want anything.’ If there is no thought, what happens? The very perception of the limitation of thought is the act of opening the door, rather than thought opening the door. To function without prestige, without frustration, that itself is an extraordinary state, meaning to function without self-centred activity. - The Krishnamurti Collection is an official podcast by Krishnamurti Foundation Trust.

Krishnamurti: Thought, Stillness and Time Gstaad 1965, Small Group Discussions 2/6: Am I Aware of the Process of Thinking? Can I see that thought is destructive, except where it is essential? Why is it that we don’t see something immediately? Do you know when you are thinking? Is the thing that we call thinking, thinking at all? Do you think from the background noise when a problem arises? When the mind becomes totally aware of the background, is there thinking when a problem arises? What happens when I am aware of this hum, this noise incessantly going on? Is the background noise different from the observer?
