Publisher's summary

    The roots of psychological conflict. 1 April 1980. Duration: 82 minutes.

    Has humanity taken a wrong turn?

    What is the root of this tremendous inward conflict of humanity?

    When I am trying to become something, it is a constant battle.

    Can the brain itself see that it is caught in time and as long as it is moving in that direction conflict is eternal, endless?

    Can the mind realise, resolve a psychological problem immediately?

    Has mankind journeyed through millennia to come to this: that I am nothing and therefore I am everything and all energy?

  • Cleansing the mind of the accumulation of time. 2 April 1980. Duration: 79 minutes.
  • Time is the enemy of man.

    Is there a beginning which is not enmeshed in time?

    We said nothingness is everything, and so it is total energy. It is undiluted, pure, uncorrupted energy. Is there something beyond that?

    Has man ever been free from the 'I'?

    That emptiness can exist only when there is death of the particular.

  • Why has man given supreme importance to thought? 8 April 1980. Duration: 84 minutes.

    Is the 'ground' indifferent to mankind, as the physical universe appears to be?

    How does one find out if there is something more than the merely physical?

    Why is it that theories are necessary and useful in organising facts about matter outwardly, and yet inwardly, psychologically they are in the way, of no use at all?

    Seeking security for myself, for my family, for my group, for my tribe, has brought about division.

    Why has man given importance to thought as the supreme thing?

    If I accept I am irrational completely, I am rational.

  • Breaking the pattern of egocentric activity. 10 April 1980. Duration: 79 minutes.
  • What will make a human being change deeply, fundamentally, radically?

    Will I, as a human being, give up my egocentric activity completely?

    The more knowledge I have acquired, as I have evolved, as I have grown, as I have experienced, it has strengthened me, and I have been walking on that path for millennia. Perhaps I may have to look at this problem totally differently - which is not to walk on that path at all; to discard all knowledge I have acquired.

    Explanations have been the boat on which to cross to the other shore. The man on the other shore says there is no boat. Cross!

    What happens to me when I meet something that is completely solid, immovable, absolutely true?

    Psychological knowledge has made us dull.

  • The ground of being and the mind of man. 12 April 1980. Duration: 71 minutes.

    Why has having ideas become so important?

    What is the difference between a religious mind and a philosophic mind?

    What is the human mind's relationship to the 'ground'?

    Why has man accumulated knowledge?

Krishnamurti deepest thoughts.

In this program Krishnamurti talks about topics that goes far beyond his average talks. If you have heard many of Krishnamurti talks or read some of his books and feel a little bit dissatisfied on the metaphysical perspective of his this audiobook will answer some of those questions and fill you with joy!

Another excellent meeting

Audio quality is a little difficult. I listen to it in the car while driving and can turn up the volume enough to listen. Excellent "content" if you will.

A more important discussion of the ground I have not found.

To truly understand what is discussed in these discussions one captures the significance of no division.

Great dialog

This is not only a great spiritual journey, it is also a great example of a dialog between people who really want to explore questions together with an open mind.

neuroscientist is taught nature of Mind

Dr. Bohm is difficult to listen to. He's very rigid; it makes me laugh. He's a hardware guy and he's learning software.

Clarity

The conversation clarifies complex concepts! The content is confusing and hard to put into words and the relationship between Bohm and Krishnamurti allowed this to happen.
Bohm was wonderful in putting Krishnamurti’s wisdom in consistent words and helped bring all this in an understandable format.

The disentanglement of time

This is a set of conversations between Jiddu Krishnamurti and David Bohm, where they both try to get to the original cause of human conflict and suffering.
These conversations provide with a lot of insight into Krishnamurti's thought, through a very interesting format where he interacts with Bohm and others. The conversations' topics progress slowly, which makes them easier to follow.
You can tell also that the words they use are also very carefully chosen. There is an effort to speak in a clear and articulate manner, and that makes it quite nice to listen to.
