Krishnamurti on Sleep and Dreams

‘When the brain is quiet in sleep, rejuvenation of its whole structure takes place and a quality of innocence comes into being.’ This week’s episode on Sleep and Dreams has four sections. The first extract (2:29) is from Krishnamurti’s second talk at Brockwood Park in 1969, titled ‘Can we understand ourselves by analysing our dreams?’ The second extract (31:12) is from the second talk at Brockwood Park in 1972, titled ‘The mind tries to create order through dreams’. The third extract (36:56) is from Krishnamurti’s fourth talk in San Diego 1970, titled ‘Attention during sleep’. The final extract in this episode (43:48) is from the seventh talk in Saanen 1970, titled ‘Can the brain be completely quiet in sleep?’ Season three of the Krishnamurti podcast continues with the format of carefully chosen extracts from the philosopher’s talks. Each weekly episode focuses on a theme explored by Krishnamurti, and the aim is to represent his different approaches to these universal topics. This is a podcast from Krishnamurti Foundation Trust.
