IS THERE A NEW LEARNING?

A 5-day online workshop with Jackie McInley
March 25 – 29, 2026 (Wed – Sun, 10 am – 12 noon, Pacific Time)

Is our perspective of learning already conditioned by education, upbringing and social norms? We have been schooled in a learning that is based on what we should know and remember. What we learn over time is tested, rewarded and ultimately seen as intelligence and success in our world. Our very minds have been deeply shaped by knowledge and memory; which is our education worldwide.

What then is this “learning” that Krishnamurti is talking about? Is it a completely new kind of learning? Can we learn without the use of memory or prior knowledge? How is this even possible?

From the very beginning of our workshop, we will be directly observing and considering what our present, conditioned learning feels like. Can we uncover a learning that unfolds as we are exploring together? Our discoveries will not therefore be approached theoretically, but observed as an integral part of the dialogue as a whole.

Does this different kind of learning create a difference?

 

Our Facilitator:

Jackie McInley founded and ran an independent Krishnamurti centre called Open Door in Southern France from 2004 until 2013 – hosting monthly inquiry weekends and annual international gatherings in French and English. She organized an experimental David Bohm bi-monthly dialogue meeting for 4 years in a local market town, and later a Krishnamurti dialogue group in the city of Toulouse.

A former self-employed, foreign language and theatre teacher by profession (schools, higher education and business), she now organises and facilitates inquiry events, gatherings and retreats in a variety of countries and cultures around the world. She also visits, facilitates dialogues and gives talks in the Krishnamurti Foundations, centres & schools in USA, UK and India.

Jackie does not follow any particular spiritual teaching but is deeply interested in the investigative talks & dialogues of J.Krishnamurti as a mirror and friend to her own constant inner inquiry.  See also her website:  https://open-door-worldwide.com
