Krishnamurti: Truth, Actuality, and the Limits of Thought Brockwood Park and Gstaad 1975, Conversations with David Bohm 8/12: What Is the Substance of Thought? What is the basic reason for thought to be fragmented? What is the substance of thought? Is it a material process, a chemical process? There is a total perception, which is truth. That perception acts in the field of reality. That action is not the product of thought. Thought has no place when there is total perception. Thought never acknowledges to itself that it is mechanical. Total perception can only exist when the centre is not. - The Krishnamurti Collection is an official podcast by Krishnamurti Foundation Trust.
