247 • Ojai 1949 (14/14) • Talk 14: Why Do We Seek?

Krishnamurti: Self-Knowledge Is the Beginning of Wisdom Ojai 1949, Public Meetings 14/14: Why Do We Seek? Q: Ideas do separate, but ideas also bring people together. Is this not the expression of love? Q: Would you kindly explain the distinction you make between factual and psychological memory? Q: Are we not seeking, really, happiness, and is there not serenity in life, that true being of which you speak? To understand something, must there not be a passivity of the mind?  The mind can be empty only when the whole content of the mind is understood. - The Krishnamurti Collection is an official podcast by Krishnamurti Foundation Trust.
