J. Krishnamurti – Rishi Valley 1978 – School Discussion 5 – What is our responsibility as educators and human beings?

What do we mean by responsibility?

I want to know myself. What is involved in that?

Why do human beings live in concepts, conclusions and ideals?

When you tell me I am the world, I listen to it without any conclusion, concept or idea, so that it enters me like a seed. If you don’t listen that way, you will make a concept of it.

Why does the brain record?

There is no recording when the mind is not concerned with pleasure or fear, reward or punishment. There is no centre as the experiencer.

My responsibility is that neither the student nor I functions from a centre, so I am going to find out a way of teaching this.

Total responsibility implies a quality of great affection.

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.
