Krishnamurti: Thought Can Never Change Man Ojai 1976, Public Meetings 4/9: Fear and the Structure of the ‘Me’ What is the root cause of fear? Is time a factor of fear? The ‘me’ to which we cling is fictitious. Clinging to something non-existent may be the root cause of fear. Deep-rooted fear is the movement of thought in time, a material process. Thought has created an artificial structure called the ‘me’ and clings to that fragment. Thought is itself a fragment. If you don’t waste energy, and that is only when the observer is the observed, you have immense energy to transform ‘what is’. - 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.
