Dear friends,
Sri J Krishnamurti writes thus:
Quote:
Isthere anything sacred in life, not invented by thought? 

Fromimmeasurable time, man has asked this question. 

Isthere something beyond all the confusion, misery, 

darkness,illusions, beyond the institutions and reforms? 

Isthere something really true, something beyond time, something so immense thatthought cannot come to it?

[ThisLight in Oneself: True Meditation]

 

Ifone is at all serious, really concerned with the whole phenomenon of existence,it is important to learn for oneself whether there is something unnameable,beyond time, not put together by thought, and which is not an illusion of thehuman mind, craving beyond experience. One must learn about it, because thatgives an astonishing depth to life—not only a significance but great beauty—inwhich there is no conflict, but a great sense of wholeness, a completeness,total sufficiency. If a mind would learn about that thing, naturally it mustset aside the things that man has put together, which he calls divine, with allthe religious rituals, beliefs, dogmas, in which he is conditioned.
