Interview Answers

How important do you consider group dialogue to be in understanding the more subtle points of Krishnamurti's message?

Group dialogue has been a great help and a great frustration to me both. Since 2 years I'm skyping with a friend, seriously studying K. and investigating our daily lives and that works out miracoulously fine.

How do you strike a balance between healthy doubt and ready acceptance in investigating Krishnamurti's proposals?

My tendency is to first look for a position from where to investigate. As that doesn't work with things that feel realy important, i start looking - reluctantly.
