Krishnamurti on Reincarnation

About this episode

‘Knowing you are going to die, there is fear and you have the comforting hope of reincarnation. You have never inquired what it is that reincarnates, but there is that hope.’

This week’s episode on Reincarnation has four sections.

The first extract (2:39) is from the third question and answer meeting in Saanen 1983, titled: What Is It That Is Going To Be Reborn?

The second extract (20:17) is from the third question and answer meeting in Ojai 1980, titled: Ending Conflict Now Is Far More Important Than Reincarnation.

The third extract (36:09) is from the first question and answer meeting in Bombay 1985, titled: Does Past Suffering and Enjoyment Have Any Bearing on the Present Life?

The final extract in this episode (48:21) is from Krishnamurti’s third talk in Bangalore 1974, titled: You have to be born anew this life, now.
