Krishnamurti on Clarity

Krishnamurti Foundation Trust
About this episode

‘Clarity is seeing things as they are; seeing what is, without any opinion; seeing the movement of your mind, observing it very closely, minutely, diligently, without any purpose, without any directive.’

This week’s episode on Clarity has two sections.

The first extract (2:51) is from Krishnamurti’s third talk in Saanen 1977, titled: Clarity, Skill and Compassion.

The second and final extract in this episode (56:55) is from the sixth talk in Madras 1964, titled: Clarity Is Essential.

Each episode of the Krishnamurti podcast features carefully selected extracts from the archives. The aim is to represent different aspects of Krishnamurti’s radical approach to many of the issues and questions we all face in our lives.

Upcoming themes are Jokes & Anecdotes, Quiet, and Patterns & Formulas.

This is a podcast from Krishnamurti Foundation Trust, based at Brockwood Park in the UK, which is also home to The Krishnamurti Centre. The Centre offers a variety of group retreats from February to December, including for young adults. The atmosphere is one of openness and friendliness, with a sense of freedom to inquire with others and alone. Please visit krishnamurticentre.org.uk for more information.
