38 • Colombo 1980 (3/5) • Discussion 1: The Root of All Fear

Krishnamurti: Magnitude of the Mind Colombo 1980, Public Meetings 3/5: The Root of All Fear When we talk about world government, world organisation, world religion, world economy, where would we begin? Is your mind capable of comprehending the global issue? As human beings are violent and ambitious, seeking power and position, we create the society in which we live. Is religion a series of rituals? Is religion to be translated by priests? What shall we do together to bring about a different kind of education in the world? We are investigating what fear is. In the very investigation, fear ends. What is the root of fear? Not your particular fear. Fear is like a tree with many branches, with all kinds of flowers and fruits. Can time as thought come to an end, which then does not create fear? Why does the mind register fear? - The Krishnamurti Collection is an official podcast by Krishnamurti Foundation Trust.
