Member Statement

"everyone in this life has certain special circumstances which force her, urge her to mould herself to a particular pattern. The genius is a person who frees herself from those circumstancs, who grows beyond them. As I wanted to be free, I had to watch all the time what circles were being drawn around me. It is very easy to follow, to be loyal to someone else, but it is much more difficult to be loyal to oneself". Krishnamurti

He was speaking on a level of my understanding, what a normal, ordinary human can comprehend. However, his teachings were repetitious.
