“Truth is a pathless land. Man cannot come to it through any organization, through any creed, through any dogma, priest or ritual, not through any philosophical knowledge or psychological technique. He has to find it through the mirror of relationship, through the understanding of the contents of his own mind, through observation and not through intellectual analysis or introspective dissection.”
— J. Krishnamurti

The crisis is not a matter of economics, of war, the bomb, the politicians, the scientists; the crisis is within us, the crisis is in our consciousness. Until we understand very profoundly the nature of that consciousness, and question, delve deeply into it and find out for ourselves whether there can be a total mutation in that consciousness, the world will go on creating more misery, more confusion, more horror. Our responsibility is not in some kind of altruistic action outside ourselves, political, social or economic; it is to comprehend the nature of our being, to find out why we human beings who live on this beautiful earth have become like this.”
J.Krishnamurti
Our events are educational day sessions focused on specific themes that support self-inquiry, self-awareness and a new consciousness, as advocated by J.Krishnamurti.
Our workshops offer, over a weekend or longer, an exploration of specific themes that support spiritual inquiry, self-awareness and transformative insight.
KECC provides several options of personal study for self-exploration and a deeper understanding of J. Krishnamurti’s teaching.
