Description
Audio | J. Krishnamurti - Paris 1965 - Public Talk 5 - The root of contradiction is the division between thinker and thought
We cannot act when there is contradiction within ourselves.
Where there is love, there is also death. The two cannot be separate.
What I am stating has value and meaning only when contradiction totally comes to an end.
Love and death must be for creation to be.
We don’t know how to end sorrow, so we escape through religion or the assertion, ‘Life has no meaning, so just live for today.’
One has to understand life totally.
A mind that is afraid, ambitious, greedy, envious or competitive can never have the energy brought about by action.
Q: What do you mean by self-knowledge?
Q: What is the relation between action and meditation?

This channel is managed by the Krishnamurti Foundation Trust, UK, and by the Krishnamurti Foundation of America.
The role of the foundations was described by Krishnamurti when he said, 'The foundations will see to it that these teachings are kept whole, are not distorted, are not made corrupt. They will not give rise to any sectarian spirit in their activities... nor create any kind of place of worship around the teachings or the person.'
We maintain extensive archives of Krishnamurti's original works and all four Krishnamurti foundations are actively engaged in the publication of material in various forms.
Our videos contain thousands of subtitles in more than 25 languages, translated by volunteers from all over the world. If you would like to help us with translating subtitles, please contact us at digital@kfoundation.org
