J. Krishnamurti - Madras 1981 - Seminar 3 - Do you ever come to a point where your brain is...

Madras (Chennai) 1981 - Seminar 3 - Do you ever come to a point where your brain is in a state of not knowing? Summary: What blocks us? We are always searching, arguing and we don’t come to a point of utter emptiness, of not-knowing. What is making us not flower? Is it thought, is it time, is it action, or have I not deeply read the book, which is myself? Why is the brain incapable of perception of the whole, and acting from that wholeness? If the Buddha came to you today and said, ‘Please listen,’ would you listen? If you listen, that is your transformation. Is there a way of looking and listening which has no relationship to knowledge? See that the brain is in a staggering state and be with it. As you are watching it, the brain quietens down. Look with that quiet brain at things, observe. That is learning. The chain is broken. Note: One participant speaks in Hindi and is translated. Note: a total of 16 seconds of missing video is replaced by audio only. --- 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 [email protected] For more information about J.
