Krishnamurti on the Future

Krishnamurti Foundation Trust
About this episode

‘If there is no future, because the future and the past are now, then what is action?’

This week’s episode on The Future has five sections.

The first extract (2:44) is from the third question and answer meeting in Saanen 1982, titled ‘What is the future of mankind?’

The second extract (9:25) is from Krishnamurti’s third talk in Saanen 1976, titled ‘Is there such thing as tomorrow?’

The third extract (19:26) is from the second question and answer meeting at Brockwood Park in 1984, titled ‘The future is now’.

The fourth extract (39:39) is from Krishnamurti’s first talk in Saanen 1984, titled ‘Action without a future’.

The final extract in this episode (1:01:14) is from the fourth talk in Bombay 1983, titled ‘There are only two possibilities left for us’.

Season three of the Krishnamurti podcast continues with the format of carefully chosen extracts from the philosopher’s talks. Each weekly episode focuses on a theme explored by Krishnamurti and the aim is to represent his different approaches to these universal topics.
