Audio | J. Krishnamurti – Saanen 1970 – Public Talk 2 – Is freedom the denial of outward authority?

How can a brain conditioned by authority and conformity listen to anything new?

Conformity implies comparison. What is the quality of a mind that does not conform?

Can one learn all the time? What does a silent, clear mind have to learn?

Can one be free of inward authority?

Do we depend because we are confused?

Can freedom exist without discipline?

A sensitive mind has no pattern.

Questions from the audience followed the talk.

This channel is managed by the Krishnamurti Foundation Trust​​, UK​, and by the Krishnamurti Foundation of America.

The role of the foundations was described by Krishnamurti when he said,​ ​’The foundations will see to it that these teachings are kept whole, are not distorted, are not made corrupt. They will not give rise to any sectarian spirit in their activities… nor create any kind of place of worship around the teachings or the person.​’​

We maintain extensive archives of Krishnamurti’s original works and all four Krishnamurti foundations are actively engaged in the publication of material in various forms.

Our videos contain thousands of subtitles in more than 25 languages, translated by volunteers from all over the world. If you would like to help us with translating subtitles, please contact us at digital@kfoundation.org
