I can see more often how my conditioning distorts my perception,and also how I have tried to defend my illusions about people,places,and things.with K all excuses are just that! I find that being so heavily conditioned,I fall back asleep alot.For me right now, just to be aware that I am unaware is a huge eyeopener. I feel that every thing in my life so far has happened to prepare my mind for this. I happened to see a video of K on a local public t v station, the i read the power of now, in which K was mentioned.So far I have read and reread the 6 or 7 books, I must admit it was difficult to follow at first,however the more I pay attention to my thoughts the easier it becomes to see the ramifications of the unobserved mind.So in closing I am glad that I recently bought a computer so as to make access to others interested in K,s work possible.

Yes , and yes.I do so in a round about way, because as K himself stated 80% or better are not interested, most think it,s buddest or esoteric.So I try to as the opportunity presents itself. Many persons get upset or angry when you try and posit life in a big picture sort of way.THere seems to be a tremendous amount of emotional investment in personal points of view. After all K also said we are not much more that monkey,s interested in our own reflections in the mirror of our own minds.Most people want someone else to solve their issues.

View all answers to this questionNo,Krishnamurti points to the conditioned state,the teaching is about seeing this in oneself.As it turns out everything that he points to in the teachings is not only logical,reasonable,but also true,the truth of it!
View all answers to this questionNo,if one does not see the truth of it,one can not be living it,a life without the illusion of self concern,to be as nothing as Krishnamurti says,total negation!

View all answers to this questionyes, to again borrow from K himself, I'm o.k. with it, meaning of course life.I I find that when i stay in the present moment, I do not worry as much, when I do not make everything a personal issue, I am without serious conflict.
