Audio | J. Krishnamurti – Saanen 1970 – Public Talk 6 – Can the mind ever be free of conditioning?
Why has the mind let itself be conditioned?
What is the machinery that is constantly adjusting itself to conditioning?
If thought is mechanical, conforming and therefore conditioned then what is love?
Is love conditioned by society and religion? Is love nurtured and cultivated by thought?
Can one be free of thought to find love?
Is compassion a mechanical repetition of being kind, polite, gentle and tender?
Can thought be completely silent, respond when necessary and let silence pervade?
Death is freedom from the known.
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
