Krishnamurti Video and Dialogue Meeting

  Krishnamurti Video and Dialogue Event Sunday, April 13, 2014. Location:  Church of Truth in Victoria         The video showing of a talk by J. Krishnamurti was attended by ten people.   An Ojai talk from 1982 focusing on the causes of conflict was shown,  followed by a group dialogue.   K spoke about the importance of contacting the feeling of wholeness in ourselves, the factors of fragmentation and conflict, and the significance of love and beauty, amongst other subjects.  Questions arose from participants regarding the possibility of living without fragmentation in daily life and activity, what kind of awareness is necessary for living in a non-fragmented way, and the tendency of the mind to make a “knowing” or concept out of any insight or understanding that takes place.   As usual in these discussions, there was an investigation into the sense of a “self” and the implications of acting from a psychological “centre”.    A further exploration started up towards the end of the session considering the question, “Is it thought that becomes aware of its own limitations or is it something beyond thought – that we might call awareness – that is aware of the limitations of thought?”   The investigation was left to be continued in a future session.
