K Study Group

Krishnamurti Study Group Saturday, April 23, 2016 Six people gathered to explore the second half of Chapter 13 in The First and Last Freedom. The chapter title was “Desire”. We alternated between reading the text and discussing the subject matter. When we looked into the core mechanism of desire we soon came to the issue of resistance to the cessation of psychological thought or the apparent death of the ego self. This led into a very interesting sharing in which all participants were fully involved. It was a lively and profound session, and it seemed to facilitate a deeper understanding of the deep fear and resistance that can arise as a part of the deconstruction of the self. Next meeting we will study Chapter 14, “Relationship and Isolation.”
