Krishnamurti: When You Observe ‘What Is’, There Is No Conflict Madras 1981/82, Public Meetings 3/8: 1st Question & Answer Meeting Q1: Without conflict or struggle in the sense of desire to improve, how can there be any progress, material or social, in the world? The desire to change supplies the motive force for work towards achievement and progress. If you accept ‘what is’ then how can there be any kind of progress? Q2: Tell us, sir, what should be done seriously to help the country and the people of the country, for no philosophy, nor books, nor talks, can solve these problems. Q3: What is sorrow? Q4: What is the nature of freedom? Why does it happen? - The Krishnamurti Collection is an official podcast by Krishnamurti Foundation Trust.
