29 • Ojai 1976 (3/9) • Discussion 1: What Is the Function of Learning?

Krishnamurti: Thought Can Never Change Man Ojai 1976, Public Meetings 3/9: What Is the Function of Learning? Why are we being educated? Can anybody help me to learn about myself? Can you observe without verbalising? Why are human beings in conflict? Is contradiction two opposing desires? Where there is comparison there must be envy, imitation and the desire to conform to a pattern. Can you look at the feeling of envy as it arises? Can you look without conclusion, opinion or judgement? As long as there is a division between the observer and the observed, there must be conflict. - The Krishnamurti Collection is an official podcast by Krishnamurti Foundation Trust.
