Can Thought Be Silent?: Four Public Talks - Berkeley USA 1969
1. Can the mind be free? - 3 February 1969 Duration: 99 minutes ¿ The society in which we live is the result of our psychological state. ¿ Where there is fear there is aggression. ¿ For most of us, freedom is something that we don't want. ¿ Inaction is total action. ¿ What is the machinery that builds images? Questions from the audience followed the talk. 2. Thought sustains fear and pleasure - 4 February 1969 Duration: 67 minutes ¿ To understand relationship and to end the conflict in it is our entire problem. ¿ Can man live at peace, within himself and outwardly? ¿ In relationship one becomes aware of the actual state of oneself. ¿ The man that has no sense of fear of any kind is really a free man, a peaceful man. ¿ What is fear? ¿ Can thought be silent? ¿ Conduct becomes virtuous only when thought doesn't cultivate what it considers virtue. ¿ How is it possible to look at the sunset without thought weaving pleasure or pain around it? Questions from the audience followed the talk. 3. Life, death and love - 5 February 1969 Duration: 69 minutes ¿ What is it that we call living? ¿ How can a confused mind find somebody who will tell the truth? ¿ When there is no comparison, no opposite, you are actually faced with the fact of anger, then is there anger? ¿ Without knowing what sorrow is, understanding its nature and structure, we shall not know what love is. ¿ What is it to die? ¿ One is never afraid of the unknown; one is afraid of the known coming to an end. ¿ It is only the mind that has shed all its burdens every day, ended every problem, that is an innocent mind. Then life has a different meaning altogether. Then one can find out what love is. 4. True revolution - 6 February 1969 J. KRISHNAMURTI Duration: 67 minutes ¿ What is a religious mind? ¿ Must one go to an expert to tell us what the unconscious is or can one find it for oneself? ¿ Through the negation of disorder, order comes into being. ¿ It is only the meditative mind that can find out, not the curious mind or the mind that is everlastingly searching. ¿ To meditate implies to see very clearly. It is not possible to see clearly when there is space between the observer and the thing observed. ¿ It is only in silence that there is quite a different dimension.
