Krishnamurti: Freedom from the Known
from The Curious Mind Hosted by Gabriel Ellis, PhD
J. Krishnamurti was an original thinker who combined psychology and spirituality in a way that inspired me 25 years ago, and still does to an extent. I am discussing a text from the book 'Freedom from the Known'. In it, Krishnamurti examines our desire for psychological security and control and asks whether true freedom is possible as long as we constantly cling to the known. He speaks about attention, and the possibility of a stillness of the mind that cannot be brought about by discipline, control, or pressure. Here are some recommendations for great dialogues he conducted: With Pupul Jayakar: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3Mja_RM0xhA With David Bohm: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CvL4uNA4U-k Free introductory consultation: https://calendly.com/gabriel-ellis/30min Homepage: https://www.gabriel-ellis.com/Email: [email protected]
