Krishnamurti Study Session at KECC
Saturday, March 3, 2018

This meeting focused on Q & A section 25 in The First and Last Freedom by J. Krishnamurti. The chapter is entitled “On Action without Idea” and it opens with a question from the audience at one of K’s talks. “For Truth to come, you advocate action without idea. Is it possible to act at all times without idea, that is, without a purpose in view?” K invites us, instead of attempting to act in accordance with an ideal, to be with what we actually are. “When I recognize I am uncharitable, stupid, what happens when I am aware it is so? Is there not charity, is there not intelligence? …In that very seeing of what is is there not love?”
Krishnamurti acknowledges that this question is not so easily solved and requires going into the problem profoundly, This is what the five participants engaged in as they explored the ideas in the text through group inquiry and sharing of insight. It was a very interesting session.
