The most simple thing has become a challenge. A challenge not met with lots of arduous effort, but just with full, earnest curiosity.

It will be miracle when one can observe without naming. Everything become new, fresh and astonishing

“In that attention there is no time “ 🙏🙏❤️

The desire to become something is the beginning of conflict- K❤

Time doesn't exist. Take this video as an example. When you watch it in black and white and think of a person who has already passed away, your mind places it in the past. But you are listening to it right now. Only thought can shift something that is happening right now into the past. It's an illusion. I know, it's a fact that it happened in the past, but it's happening right now.

Beautifully said…
Looks simple to do but for 50yrs of no idea about the *thought*, we never find out the beauty of it.
Im still learning how to look without words because the brain used to do that…
Now, looking with words, the mind is quite & just depth❤❤..
Thank you Sir for experiencing joy from within☘️

This is pertinent to the world of arts and entertainment, reviews and opinions. To see art and break the fourth wall of thought, leaves the brain free from comparison, good/bad, all of it. Freedom from the self.

another gem of a message - ever living

[ThinkingPhilosophically]

Honestly we are all looking for someone to tell us what to do because we struggle to define our own existence

[fredfranco-cbxo]

The enlightened person points the way and says "just do that!" But I haven't directly discovered the truth of that, so the natural question in my mind, other than just to follow him faithfully, is why should I do that? Thus, explaining the reason for the stated action is of paramount importance. Why do we need to observe without the word? Words and images are symbols of something, not the thing itself. And thought is based on symbols. Thus, in order to directly experience reality one has to let go of symbols and thought. To truly experience a table you have to touch, feel, and look at it, not playing with the word "table" or an image of it.

When he said “listen and observe” I instantly thought of when I was a child in church i was always told “listen and obey” smh religion has such a warped corrupt way of expressing spirituality

[eugeniamorais]

Meu Deus, tudo está certo!!!
Obrigada Krisnamurti❤❤❤

[soundsofenlightenment]

This observation/engagement without thought sometimes happens in moment of intense (pleasurable) sensation, like during a passionate love affair or taking a consciousness inducing drug like LSD or even eating or drinking something good that thought ceases for a while simply because there's complete attention and awareness.

But what the mystics are saying is that, instead of relying on something external to achieve this mini mystical experience, it's possible to train the mind to attain this from inwardly from the quieting of the mind, not through forcing or subduing it but through what Krishnamurti terms perfectly as "choiceless awareness".

[DeanEnd-zo]

I arrived at that after a meditation I did on two occasions

[rajrahul]

Sitting in the mountains i started observing what is going on inside me honestly as it is....and mountain becomes fresh.. green colour of trees.... sound of forest.... whistles, rattles etc of birds all are more beautiful and pleasant.... but as soon as I loose the attention that Beauty is also gone

[suntaog]

How attentive would you be if you knew a person might either bite your face off or kiss you, and you have to gauge their mood and intention? Imagine meeting a tiger in the forest and hoping it had just eaten well but not knowing. You would be so attentive to its mood... Imagine meeting every person and in fact every morning as if it might bite your face off...or kiss you. There is your attention, your quiet mind, your breathless listening and watching to see what's next.
