Subtitles available in: ENGLISH J. Krishnamurti - Ojai 1949 - Public Talk 1 - Does self-knowledge come through searching? What is it that most of us are seeking? Does clarity come through searching and trying to find out what others say? Can incessant search and longing give you the extraordinary sense of reality or creative being that comes when you really understand yourself? Without knowing your background and the substance of your thought, where it comes from, surely your search is utterly futile and your action has no meaning. The responsibility for any action depends on ourselves, not on others. Q: Do I have to be at any special level of consciousness to understand you? Q: The movement of life is experienced in relationship to people and to ideas. --- This channel is managed by the Krishnamurti Foundation Trust​​, UK​, and by the Krishnamurti Foundation of America.

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.
