Krishnamurti: Can Thought Become Quiet? Amsterdam 1968, Students Discussions 2/4: To Change Without Effort Why does a human being think about himself?  ‘Don’t be committed to anything.’ That’s a challenge. If you listen to that challenge with silence then there is a change, even a mutation biologically. Can thought be quiet?  When I look at something with the light of silence, I see things very clearly, there is no conflict or fear - there is freedom. It is then possible to live without conflict. - The Krishnamurti Collection is an official podcast by Krishnamurti Foundation Trust. Across this wide selection of events, Krishnamurti explores fundamental questions of human existence that touch our daily lives and relationships. Each episode of the podcast features a full-length Krishnamurti recording from the Foundation’s archives, with a new series released every week. Krishnamurti is widely regarded as one of the greatest philosophers and teachers of all time. For seven decades, he spoke to large audiences around the world, as well as with notable individuals and small groups. Krishnamurti stressed that ‘There is hope in humanity, not in society, not in systems, not in organised religious systems, but in you and in me.’ Established by Krishnamurti in 1968, Krishnamurti Foundation Trust is a non-profit charity based at Brockwood Park in the UK, which is also home to The Krishnamurti Centre and Brockwood Park School.
