191 • San Francisco 1975 (1/4) • Talk 1: Freedom Is Necessary To Investigate Into Oneself

Krishnamurti: Meditation Is the Transformation of the Mind San Francisco 1975, Public Meetings 1/4: Freedom Is Necessary To Investigate Into Oneself Freedom implies that one can inquire within oneself, to examine the whole structure of the human mind. It is necessary to be free to find out what is true and false for yourself, which no system, philosophy or guru can tell you. Can the mind look at itself, observe without any distortion? Who is the observer? To learn about oneself is to observe without the observer, to see without distortion, prejudice and fear. Questions from the audience followed the talk - The Krishnamurti Collection is an official podcast by Krishnamurti Foundation Trust.
