YOU ARE THE WORLD J.Krishnamurti There is a strange malaise amongst the student population of the worid and, at this critical moment,when the campus has virtually become a battlefield, the words of J.Krishnamurti direct each person to become his own teacher as well as disciple. . For over four decades, Krishnamurti has spoken to people in all parts of the world. He does not represent any 'school' of thought, either of the East or of the West. He is only concerned with facts not with ideas, theories and beliefs. As far back as 1930, George Bernard Shaw was proclaiming him as "the world's greatest teacher", while in-the present day Aldous Huxley, in his recently published Letters, ikens a Talk by Krishnamurti to "a discourse of the Buddha" I am not your teacher - you are not my disciples. There is no authority, no guru who is going to lead you by the hand to God or enlightenment. You yourself are both the teacher and the disciple." Not a guru, but rather a signpost for the journey each of us has to make for himself, Krishnamurti asks us to use his words as a mirror to look at ourselves as we actually are, and to see the totality of existence. To look în such a manner, the mind must be completely free not bound by authority of any kind. This freedom, however, can easily be misunderstood:it does not mean leading an undisciplined, self indulgent kind of life, doing as one pleases. The violent protest of the activist group, intent on changing socrety is meahingless to Krishnamurti who pöints out that Tthe Only Revolution (incidentally the title of one o bis most recenr publications) is a total revolution in the psiche isef, wheri the mind being can undergo a complete transf oimatien When asked: "Where did you leatn al that you.know?" he empties itself of the known It is only then that the human replies, When you see the truth of arything, what is there to know? it is the essential simplicity of direct perception which for most people will undoubtedly prove to be the stumbling block. sin reseñas | añadir una reseña

„El pensamiento sustenta y nutre tanto al temor
como al placer. Lo que queremos es el placer
continuo, màs y más placer..., y si lo observamos
bien, toda la moralidad social -que es realmente
inmoral- se basa en el placer y el temor, en la
recompensa y el castigo.
El cultivar diversas formas de lo que debería ser
que son llamadas virtud, practicándolas día tras dia
hasta que se vuelven mecánicas, no tiene ningún
sentido. La virtud, ciertamente, es algo de instante
en instante, como la belleza, como el amor, no algo
que uno ha acumulado y desde lo cual actúa.
«El pensamiento engendra el temor, pero el
pensamiento no puede terminar con el temor,
iqué harán entonces?"
