Ojai 1979 - Public Discussion 2 - Is there a way of living in which self-centred activity ends?
Summary:
What is it that we are wanting, seeking? Why do you come and listen to the speaker?
What is preventing all human beings having plentiful food, clothing and shelter?
Is not the cause of confusion the content of our consciousness?
How deeply do I want to be free of self-centredness?
Can you observe your reactions without the past telling you it is good, bad, right, wrong - just to observe?
When the mind, which is the whole movement of thought, is operating from past knowledge, experience, memory, then it becomes a dangerous instrument that divides and destroys people.

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
