“Attention is not the same thing as concentration. Concentration is exclusion ; attention, which is total awareness, excludes nothing. It seems to me that most of us are not aware, not only of the trees, the clouds, the movement of water. Perhaps it is because we are so concerned with ourselves, with our own petty little problems, our own ideas, our own pleasures, pursuits and ambitions that we are not objectively aware. And yet we talk a great deal about awareness.” - Freedom from the Unknown (Krishnamurti)
"Conflict is the denial of what is or the running away from what is; there is no conflict other than that..." ~Krishnamurti
“For every love there is a heart somewhere to receive it.” ~Jiddu Krishnamurti
"If people who say they love their children meant it, would there be war? And would there be division of nationalities – would there be these separations?" ~Jiddu Krishnamurti
"If we can really understand the problem, the answer will come out of it, because the answer is not separate from the problem." ~Jiddu Krishnamurti
"If we lose our relationship with nature, we lose inevitably our relationship with humans." ~Krishnamurti
"If your eyes are blinded by your worries, you cannot see the beauty of the sunset." ~Krishnamurti
"In the cultivation of the mind, our emphasis should not be on concentration, but on attention. Concentration is a process of forcing the mind to narrow down to a point, whereas attention is without frontiers." ~J. Krishnamurti
"It is no measure of health to be well adjusted to a profoundly sick society." ~J. Krishnamurti

"It is very important to go out alone, to sit under a tree—not with a book, not with a companion, but by yourself—and observe the falling of a leaf, hear the lapping of the water, the fishermen’s song, watch the flight of a bird, and of your own thoughts as they chase each other across the space of your mind. If you are able to be alone and watch these things, then you will discover extraordinary riches which no government can tax, no human agency can corrupt, and which can never be destroyed." ~Jiddu Krishnamurti
"Learn from all of life...
You must understand the whole of life, not just one little part of it. That is why you must read, that is why you must look at the skies, that is why you must sing and dance, and write poems and suffer and understand, for all that is life." ~Jiddu Krishnamurti
"Man has always sought immortality; he paints a picture, puts his name on it, that is a form of immortality; leaving a name behind, man always wants to leave something of himself behind." ~Jiddu Krishnamurti
"Meditation can take place when you are sitting in a bus, or walking in the woods full of light and shadows, or listening to the singing of the birds, or looking at the face of your wife or child." ~J. Krishnamurti
"Our minds are conditioned by a particular culture or society, influenced by various impressions, by the strains and stresses of relationships, by economic, climatic, educational factors, by religious conformity and so on." ~Krishnamurti
"Our minds are trained to accept fear and to escape, if we can, from that fear, never being able to resolve, totally and completely, the whole nature and structure of fear." ~Jiddu Krishnamurti
"Real freedom is not something to be acquired, it is the outcome of intelligence. You cannot go out and buy freedom in the market. You cannot get it by reading a book, or by listening to someone talk. Freedom comes with intelligence." ~J. Krishnamurti
“The ability to observe without evaluating is the highest form of intelligence.” ~Jiddu Krishnamurti
"The day you teach the child the name of the bird, the child will never see that bird again." ~Jiddu Krishnamurti
"The highest form of human intelligence is to observe yourself without judgment." ~Krishnamurti
"There can only be a relationship between human beings when we accept what is, not what should be." ~Jiddu Krishnamurti

“The ignorant man is not the unlearned, but he who does not know himself, and the learned man is stupid when he relies on books, on knowledge and on authority to give him understanding. Understanding comes only through self-knowledge, which is awareness of one’s total psychological process. Thus education, in the true sense, is the understanding of oneself, for it is within each one of us that the whole of existence is gathered.” ~J. Krishnamurti, “Education and the Significance of Life.”

"There can only be a relationship between human beings when we accept what is, not what should be." ~Jiddu Krishnamurti
"There is hope in people, not in society, not in systems... but in you and in me." ~J Krishnamurti
"To deny conventional morality completely is to be highly moral, because what we call social morality, the morality of respectability, is utterly immoral; we are competitive, greedy, envious, seeking our own way – you know how we behave. We call this social morality; religious people talk about a different kind of morality, but their life, their whole attitude, the hierarchical structure of religious organization and belief, is immoral. To deny that is not to react, because when you react, this is another form of dissenting through one’s own resistance. But when you deny it because you understand it, there is the highest form of morality." ~Jiddu Krishnamurti
"... to negate social morality, to negate the way we are living – our petty little lives, our shallow thinking and existence, the satisfaction at a superficial level with our accumulated things – to deny all that, not as a reaction but seeing the utter stupidity and the destructive nature of this way of living – to negate all that is to live. To see the false as the false – this seeing is the true." ~Jiddu Krishnamurti
"To understand truth, one must have a very sharp, precise, clear mind; not a cunning mind, but a mind that is capable of looking without any distortion, a mind innocent and vulnerable." ~J. Krishnamurti
"To understand what is, you have to be undisturbed, undistracted you have to give your mind and heart to it." ~Krishnamurti
"You see, you are not educated to be alone. Do you ever go out for a walk by yourself? It is very important to go out alone, to sit under a tree—not with a book, not with a companion, but by yourself—and observe the falling of a leaf, hear the lapping of the water, the fishermen’s song, watch the flight of a bird, and of your own thoughts as they chase each other across the space of your mind.
