What is the Nature of True Freedom with JC Tefft, March 2, 2025

Part of a six-day series led by JC Tefft entitled “Investigating Truth.”
Sponsored by the Krishnamurti Educational Centre of Canada
Day Five: March 2, 2025
9 Attendees Present

Using Krishnamurti’s teachings as a guide, we asked and investigated the question: ‘What is True Freedom?

“Freedom from the known is to be a light unto oneself – then it is not an abstraction, a projection conjured up by thought. Actual freedom is freedom from dependency, from attachment, and the craving for experience. Freedom from the … structure of thought is to be a light unto oneself. In this light all action takes place, and such action is never contradictory.”
~ J. Krishnamurti ~

“Freedom means to have no psychological conflict inwardly.”
~ J. Krishnamurti ~

“True freedom is present when the conditioned mind is no longer in the foreground of conscious being – not unlike when we were a child – prior to when concepts of mind appeared that caught our attention and increasingly assumed center stage.”
~ JC Tefft ~

“True freedom is limitless – meaning – not limited to concepts and thoughts. True freedom has no boundaries – no limitations at all. It is totally free of attachment to the content of mind.”
~ JC Tefft ~

Referencing Krishnamurti’s teachings throughout, JC shared testimony and insight into the nature of freedom from attachment to the content of Mind. 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.’
