If you do, it becomes dead, crystallized it becomes a creed, a sect, a religion, to be imposed on others. A belief is purely an individual matter, and you cannot and must not organize it. If you first understand that, then you will see how impossible it is to organize a belief. Truth, being limitless, unconditioned, unapproachable by any path whatsoever, cannot be organized nor should any organization be formed to lead or to coerce people along any particular path. That is my point of view, and I adhere to that absolutely and unconditionally. I maintain that Truth is a pathless land, and you cannot approach it by any path whatsoever, by any religion, by any sect. 'Oh, not at all,' the devil replied, 'I am going to let him organize it.' 'That is a very bad business for you, then,' said his friend. The friend said to the devil, 'What did that man pick up?' He picked up a piece of Truth,' said the devil. You may remember the story of how the devil and a friend of his were walking down the street, when they saw ahead of them a man stoop down and pick up something from the ground, look at it, and put it away in his pocket. It is a question neither for rejoicing nor for sadness, because it is inevitable, as I am going to explain. Many people will be delighted, and others will be rather sad. We are going to discuss this morning the dissolution of the Order of the Star.
#Krishnamurti truth is a pathless land full#
Below is the full text of the talk he gave on that occasion. On August 3, 1929, the opening day of the annual Star Camp in Ommen, Holland, Krishnamurti dissolved the Order before 3000 members. Duration: 71 minutes.The Order of the Star in the East was founded by the Theosophical Society in 1911 to proclaim the coming of the World Teacher.
The more knowledge I have acquired, as I have evolved, as I have grown, as I have experienced, it has strengthened me, and I have been walking on that path for millennia. Will I, as a human being, give up my egocentric activity completely? What will make a human being change deeply, fundamentally, radically? Breaking the pattern of egocentric activity.If I accept I am irrational completely, I am rational. Why has man given importance to thought as the supreme thing? Seeking security for myself, for my family, for my group, for my tribe, has brought about division. Why is it that theories are necessary and useful in organising facts about matter outwardly, and yet inwardly, psychologically they are in the way, of no use at all? How does one find out if there is something more than the merely physical? Is the 'ground' indifferent to mankind, as the physical universe appears to be? Why has man given supreme importance to thought? 8 April 1980.That emptiness can exist only when there is death of the particular. It is undiluted, pure, uncorrupted energy. We said nothingness is everything, and so it is total energy. Is there a beginning which is not enmeshed in time? Cleansing the mind of the accumulation of time.Has mankind journeyed through millennia to come to this: that I am nothing and therefore I am everything and all energy? When I am trying to become something, it is a constant battle.Ĭan the brain itself see that it is caught in time and as long as it is moving in that direction conflict is eternal, endless?Ĭan the mind realise, resolve a psychological problem immediately? What is the root of this tremendous inward conflict of humanity?
