Krishnamurti on Conditioning

‘Can the mind be aware of the content of its conditioning only, and not try to go beyond it?’ This week’s episode on Conditioning has two sections. The first extract (2:24) is from Krishnamurti’s second talk in Saanen 1973, titled ‘Freeing the mind from the web of conditioning’. The second and final extract (51:25) is from the seventh talk in Saanen 1981, titled ‘Can one specialise yet function wholly?’ Each weekly episode in this season of the Krishnamurti podcast is based on a major theme of the philosopher’s talks, such as freedom, self-knowledge, beauty, intelligence and meditation. Extracts from our archives have been carefully selected to represent Krishnamurti’s different approaches to each of these universal and timelessly relevant themes.
