The Immeasurable Podcast

The Immeasurable Podcast highlights the third discussion of a seven-part series titled The Transformation of Humanity. This series was recorded in 1976 at Brockwood Park, where J. Krishnamurti spoke with a small group.Why do human beings live in such appalling misery, accepting it for millennia?Is it possible for a human being to change at the very root of his being?Who is going to tell me? Is it Marx, Lenin, Mao, the Pope, or the local priest? Authority exists because human beings are in disorder. In the rejection of authority I become very sane. When I reject authority I have more energy.What is correct action in life? I can only find that out if there is no disorder in me. 'Me' is the disorder. However 'real' the 'me' is, it is the source of disorder.For more information about J.

The Immeasurable Podcast highlights the second discussion of a seven-part series titled The Transformation of Humanity. This series was recorded in 1976 at Brockwood Park, where J. Krishnamurti spoke with a small group.Is there psychological security at all, a sense of well-founded, deep-rooted existence?When you hear that there is no security, is it an abstract idea or an actual fact?My security lies in some image, a picture, a conclusion, an ideal.The brain needs order in order to function. It finds order in mechanical process because it is trained from childhood to do so.When the past meets the present and continues, it is one of the factors of time, bondage, fear. But when the past meets the present and I am completely aware of this moment, then it stops. Then I meet you as though for the first time.For more information about J.

The Immeasurable Podcast highlights the first discussion of a seven-part series titled The Transformation of Humanity. This series was recorded in 1976 at Brockwood Park, where J. Krishnamurti spoke with a small group.How can one be aware of the wholeness of life if one is fragmented?I am a fragment and therefore am creating more fragments, more conflict, more confusion, more sorrow. Is the center the very cause of fragmentation?Does the beginning of fragmentation take place when I am seeking security?Is security in knowledge, used wrongly, one of the factors of fragmentation?Can I be free of the desire to be psychologically secure?For more information about J.

Krishnamurti in Conversation with Keith Berwick (Part 2)You're listening to The Immeasurable Podcast. Recorded in Los Angeles in 1983, this second part of a conversation between J. Krishnamurti and journalist Keith Berwick continues the inquiry into the nature of the self and the limits of thought.Here, Krishnamurti questions authority in all its forms—religious, political, psychological—and examines the reliance on systems, methods, and beliefs. He returns repeatedly to thought: its extraordinary capacity to create knowledge and culture, and its equally destructive role in creating fear, division, and conflict.The conversation touches on love, desire, meditation, and intelligence, but resists explanation and prescription. Instead, it raises a central question that runs through the entire exchange: whether thought is the sole instrument by which understanding takes place.This episode completes the interview.

Welcome back to The Immeasurable Podcast. You're listening to season five. Recorded in Los Angeles in 1983, this first part of a two-part conversation brings J. Krishnamurti into dialogue with journalist and historian Keith Berwick, a four-time Emmy Award–winning television broadcaster whose work spans journalism, education, and long-form inquiry.The interview opens with a direct and unsettling question: why did Krishnamurti, in 1929, dissolve the Order of the Star and reject the spiritual authority that had been constructed around him? His response is unequivocal. Religious organizations and belief systems, he says, have not helped human beings face the actual facts of life; instead, they have encouraged escape, conformity, and the worship of persons rather than understanding.From this point, the conversation moves to what Krishnamurti identifies as the real crisis of the modern world—not political or economic, but psychological. Violence, fear, anxiety, and sorrow persist because the human mind remains conditioned. Choice, he argues, is not freedom but a sign of confusion; where there is clarity, there is no choice, only action.A central theme of this episode is belief. Krishnamurti challenges belief in all its forms, insisting that belief dulls the brain, turns inquiry into habit, and replaces direct perception with repetition. Ritual, dogma, and identity, he suggests, gradually make the mind mechanical rather than intelligent.The dialogue also turns to death and fear. Krishnamurti questions why human beings cling to psychological attachments while fearing their ending and introduces one of his most radical assertions: that consciousness is not personal but common to all humanity, shaped by shared patterns of suffering, insecurity, and desire. The illusion of separateness, he argues, lies at the root of conflict.As the episode concludes, the discussion focuses on thought and relationship. Thought, while essential in practical life, is always limited, and when it governs inward life it produces images that fragment relationship. Where images intervene, there is no real contact. Freedom, Krishnamurti says, is not the freedom to do as one likes, but freedom from the image-building activity of thought itself.This is Part 1 of the interview. The following episode features Part 2, which continues the inquiry into the nature of the self, authority, love, meditation, and the question of whether there is an instrument of understanding other than thought.Follow The Immeasurable on Instagram (@krishnamurtifoundationamerica)Follow The Immeasurable on Tiktok (@j.krishnamurti)Subscribe to The Immeasurable on YouTube (@theimmeasurable)Like The Immeasurable on Facebook (facebook.com/theimmeasurable.org)Visit TheImmesurable.com Support the show

Welcome back to The Immeasurable Podcast. In this follow-up episode, we share the Q&A session that took place immediately after David Moody’s talk, “What Does It Mean to Live the Teachings?”David is joined by three fellow panelists —Mary Kelley, John Duncan, & Francisco Mazza — for a wide-ranging conversation shaped by both the live audience in the room and viewers watching online during the 2025 KFA Annual May Gathering.Together, they explore questions that naturally arise when Krishnamurti’s teaching is taken seriously: what it means to begin without a method, how “not knowing” relates to insight, whether the “impossible” is actually the only thing worth doing, and how to approach inquiry without turning the teachings into a new belief system.The discussion also touches on education, the role and danger of “interpreters,” psychological time, and what it really means to discover truth for oneself — moment by moment.Follow The Immeasurable on Instagram (@krishnamurtifoundationamerica)Follow The Immeasurable on Tiktok (@j.krishnamurti)Subscribe to The Immeasurable on YouTube (@theimmeasurable)Like The Immeasurable on Facebook (facebook.com/theimmeasurable.org)Visit TheImmesurable.com Support the show

Welcome back to The Immeasurable Podcast. This episode features a talk from the 2025 KFA Annual May Gathering.It’s titled “What Does It Mean to Live the Teaching?” and is presented by David Moody.In his last recorded statement, just days before his death, Krishnamurti spoke of the “immense energy and intelligence” that had flowed through him for seventy years — and said that others might experience it too, if they live the teachings. But, he added, no one had done so.In this talk, David explores what it means to live the teachings, drawing from Krishnamurti’s words over many years, and reflecting on how we might approach this question ourselves.A Q&A session with the audience followed this presentation. We’ll share that conversation in the next episode.And now, here’s David Moody.David reflects on the significance of “40 years” since Krishnamurti’s last talk in Ojai (2:48)K’s final days (4:19)"...when Krishnamurti dies, what really happens to that extraordinary focus of understanding and energy that is K?"

The Immeasurable Podcast highlights the fifth discussion of a five-part series titled Can Humanity Change?  This series was recorded in 1978 at Brockwood Park, where J. Krishnamurti spoke with Buddhist scholars.J. Krishnamurti with Buddhist Scholars - Brockwood Park 1978 - Discussion 5: DeathSeries: Can Humanity Change?Q: Is there life after death?When the body dies the desires, the anxieties, the tragedies and the misery go on. They go on contributing to the vast common stream in which mankind lives. Each of us is representative of the whole of that stream.By inquiring into the whole nature of suffering can one end it and be out of the stream? The free inquiry into suffering is insight. As long as I accept any authority, Buddhist or otherwise, can there be insight?For the man who is no longer a manifestation of the stream, intelligence, love and compassion are operating.Q: How do you discriminate between mindfulness, awareness and attention?For more information about J.

But nature is not created by thought.Can the mind, the network of all the senses apprehend, see and observe truth?Psychological time is the invention of thought, which we use as a means of achieving enlightenment. Is such time an illusion? Is truth measurable by words? Truth is timeless, thought is of time, and the two cannot run together.Without love, without compassion, truth cannot be. I cannot go to truth, I cannot see truth. Truth can only exist when the self is not.For more information about J.

Welcome back to The Immeasurable Podcast. This episode comes from a talk titled “War and Peace” at the 2022 KFA May Gathering. Despite the persistent aspiration of every generation to achieve world peace and end war, violence, and terror, these conflicts continue unabated. Most people envision a peaceful world for their children, yet the cycle of violence and ethnic hatred persists. In this talk, Mark Habeeb raises the question of whether we should abandon this seemingly unattainable goal or go deeper into understanding why we perpetuate the very actions we wish to cease. We may be challenged to have the courage to look within ourselves and recognize that the roots of war and violence lie in our own interactions and relationships.Mark Habeeb is a Professor of Global Politics and Security at Georgetown University’s School of Foreign Service in Washington, DC, where his specialty is international negotiation, conflict management, and the role of identity processes in group violence. He is a Fellow of the Middle East Studies Association, a member of the Society for the Psychological Study of Social Issues, and a member of the Board of Virginia Humanities. From 1988 to 1991 he was Chairman of the Forum for US-Soviet Dialogue. He has published widely in his field and in 2021 published his first novel. Mark received his PhD from Johns Hopkins University and also studied at the University of Sussex and the Washington Psychoanalytic Institute. He has studied the teachings of Krishnamurti for over 30 years.Follow The Immeasurable on Instagram (@krishnamurtifoundationamerica)Follow The Immeasurable on Tiktok (@j.krishnamurti)Subscribe to The Immeasurable on YouTube (@theimmeasurable)Like The Immeasurable on Facebook (facebook.com/theimmeasurable.org)Visit TheImmesurable.com Support the show

You’re listening to The Immeasurable Podcast and this episode is an exploration on education between Darcy Gray and Jaap Sluijter. Darcy Gray's interest in Krishnamurti's teachings began in his early twenties, leading him to join the Krishnamurti School in Ojai, California, shortly after its establishment in 1975. During his three-decade tenure at Oak Grove School, he engaged in staff dialogues with Krishnamurti and David Bohm, contributing to various roles in the high school, elementary school, and administration. While teaching math and physics, traditionally approached with rote methods, Darcy prioritized innovative ways of presenting the subjects, fostering a collaborative learning atmosphere in the classroom. His teaching philosophy involved questioning both right and wrong answers, encouraging students to share their perspectives even when divergent from his expectations. Despite retiring in 2020, Darcy remained actively involved in Oak Grove School’s Krishnamurti discussions, volunteering and sustaining a profound interest in K’s questions and dialogues. Jaap Sluijter has a long-standing interest in the questions raised by Krishnamurti. Currently, Jaap is the Executive Director of the Krishnamurti Foundation of America. Previously, he lived and taught at Brockwood Park School in England. He has an MA in Mechanical Engineering and worked as a design engineer in the field of camera systems and musical instruments. Together, Darcy and Jaap discuss education, drawing insight from Krishnamurti's teachings. They explore the nuances of establishing a meaningful teacher-student relationship, emphasizing the importance of fostering independent thinking. The speakers advocate for a serious learning dynamic, addressing challenges such as fear, judgment, and bullying in the classroom and highlighting the need for clear expectations and standards.In this dialogue, Jaap and Darcy explore the intricacies of addressing conflict in school, emphasizing the examination of personal desires and vulnerability. They also discuss the impact of Krishnamurti's emphasis on questioning and awareness. The speakers concluded by challenging traditional notions of intelligence, promoting freedom from conditioning, and envisioning schools as spaces for creativity and growth, breaking away from the dichotomy of obedience and rebellion.

Welcome to The Immeasurable Podcast. This episode comes from discussions Krishnamurti had with teachers at Brockwood Park School, recorded in 1976. These dialogues were turned into a book called A Flame of Learning. In the previous episode, “Learning from Every Moment,” Leah and Pooja discuss similar themes. More specifically, they highlight how concepts like authority, discipline, and control impact students, as well as what it means to learn as an educator. This episode delves into the significance of the teacher and student, exploring topics such as authority, sensitivity, and learning. Krishnamurti emphasizes the value of collaborative learning between teachers and students.Krishnamurti said, “It is important to establish right relationship between yourself and the student. You cannot do this if you are sitting on a pedestal as a teacher and treating the students as though below you. Come off the pedestal and establish a relationship of mutual learning.” You can find this quote in the book A Flame of Learning, where you can read these dialogues in print.

Welcome back to The Immeasurable Podcast. This episode comes from discussions Krishnamurti had with teachers at Brockwood Park School, which he founded in England in 1969. These dialogues were turned into a book called A Flame of Learning and are also referenced by Jaap and Shailesh in the previous episode,  Exploring Education. Krishnamurti explores a teacher’s relationship with both the school and with their colleagues and students. In this episode, Krishnamurti questions the nature of freedom and authority, the root of fear and violence, and the possibility of awakening intelligence and sensitivity to order. The teachers and Krishnamurti also go into the nature of inquiry itself and the necessity for clarity, observation, and communication. He challenges educators to look at the need for radical psychological change and to consider the possibility of such changes in all human beings. Krishnamurti said, "Seeing something very clearly and acting instantly is intelligence. Can we have that intelligence among ourselves first, and then convey it to the student?"

Welcome to The Immeasurable Podcast. The following episode is an exploration with Leah Luong and Jackie McInley and was recorded in Ojai at Pine Cottage, Krishnamurti’s former residence. The episode is titled after the book Beyond Violence. Krishnamurti said, “We have built a society which is violent and we as human beings are violent; the environment, the culture we live in, is the product of our endeavor, of our struggle, of our pain, of our appalling brutalities. So the most important question is: is it possible to end this tremendous violence within oneself?” While Jackie and Leah discuss this possibility together, they are by no means experts and this dialogue is an attempt to discover it as if for the first time.
