139 • Ojai 1966 (4/9) • Talk 3: Giving Complete Attention to Pleasure

Krishnamurti: Effort To Be Intelligent Is Not Intelligent Ojai 1966, Public Meetings 4/9: Giving Complete Attention to Pleasure Passion with a motive is bound to come to an end. When you attend, there are no borders of inattention. Without understanding pleasure, there can be no freedom from fear. Observation cannot be taught by another. If you are taught how to observe, you cease to observe. Only when there is an end to time is there something totally new. Otherwise it is merely a continuity what has been, modified through the present and conditioned by the future. Pleasure has in it pain; the two cannot be separated. Questions from the audience followed the talk. - The Krishnamurti Collection is an official podcast by Krishnamurti Foundation Trust.
