Investigating Truth with JC Tefft, February 16, 2025

Part of a six-day series led by JC Tefft entitled “Investigating Truth.”
Sponsored by the Krishnamurti Educational Centre of Canada
Day Four: February 16, 2025
12 Attendees Present

Using Krishnamurti’s teachings as a guide, we asked and investigated the question: ‘What Does it Mean – To Be Purely Aware’?

“If you give … complete attention – which is to be attentive with your whole being – then you might see that there is an immediate perception in which no time is involved; in which there is no effort, no conflict, no division; and it is this immediate perception – this choiceless awareness – that brings an end to sorrow.”
~ J. Krishnamurti ~

“Your mind is conditioned right through. There is no part of your mind that is unconditioned. This is a fact, whether you like it or not.”
~ J. Krishnamurti ~

“Note that Krishnamurti did not say that part of your mind is conditioned, while other parts are not. Nor did he suggest that it’s okay for some activity of Mind to be in play for that which is other than mind to come forth. In fact, the opposite is true. Krishnamurti repeatedly declared that the mind must be still for Pure Perception to be in the foreground of conscious being.”
~ JC Tefft ~

Referencing Krishnamurti’s teachings throughout, JC shared testimony and insight into the nature of Pure Awareness the underlies all that appears in consciousness. Attendees were encouraged to share insights of their own as well.

Primary references for Krishnamurti quotations came from ‘The Book of Life’ – ‘Krishnamurti’s Journal’ – and ‘Krishnamurti to Himself: His Last Journal’
