Victoria Krishnamurti Event

Victoria Krishnamurti Event

Friday, April 7, 2017

Our first Friday night session at the Church of Truth was quite successful. Five of us watched a couple of clips of Krishnamurti speaking at Brockwood Park on the subject of death and then formed a circle for some group dialogue. Three of the participants were new to Krishnamurti, and all found the material and the discussion of great interest. They were also intending to attend events at the Krishnamurti Educational Centre of Canada in Metchosin. In the videos, K spoke of the illusion of being a separate consciousness and the limitation of the thought-constructed sense of a “me”. Can we die to our attachments and our sense of being a separate, isolated entity? Out of the act of dying, love makes itself known. The participants had a good deal of pertinent input for exploration and discussion.

We looked at a Rupert Spira video addressing a question about the fear of dissolution. His approach was slightly different than Krishnamurti’s, but everyone felt the two were complementary and valuable in our inquiry into the meaning of living and dying.
