96 • London 1969 (2/4) • Talk 2: Can the Mind Be Free of Fear?

Krishnamurti: Without Freedom From the Known, the Possible Cannot Be Captured London 1969, Public Meetings 2/4: Can the Mind Be Free of Fear? Can there be complete psychological freedom? Learning and freedom go together. One cannot learn about oneself unless one is free. To learn about oneself one must observe actually as one is, not according to patterns, formulas or concepts. Can the mind resolve its conditioning and fears completely? Fear makes us accept conditioning. Fear and pleasure arise through the structure of thought. What place has thought in life? The thinker is the thought. Questions from the audience followed the talk. - The Krishnamurti Collection is an official podcast by Krishnamurti Foundation Trust.
