- Originally entitled "The Role of a Flower", this video shown on British television in 1985 as part of "The Human Factor" TV program, features J. Krishnamurti, founder of Brockwood Park School, here interviewed and giving a talk just months before his death in Ojai California. This will also give you some biographical information as well as insights from people who knew him personally, such as Mary Lutyens, as well as people who used to attend the gatherings. Finally, for those of you who don't know what K's talks used to look like in those days, this is a good window into the atmosphere of the way it used to be at Brockwood.
"The moment you follow someone, you cease to follow truth." ~ Krishnamurti
Literally none of his students follow this teaching. :P
I found similar issues with one of my gurus. The first thing they asked me when I visited the ashram went against his teaching. Those closest to him were the biggest impediment to enlightenment or pure satsang.
good one
@@agnidas5816 Yes I know. But what about Dr. David Bohm? He was definitely his closest conversation partner.
"I have plenty of energy because I don't carry the burden of the past"
Grace22 - I said wow! when he said that at the end.
I had the immense privilege of seeing him and listening to him...I loved what he said and still do... One of the greatest 'Speaker'. Miss him a lot.
Some people leavs a indelibly impression ---
He has single-handedly empowered me to liberate my own mind. I am eternally grateful for his existence. "What is the role of a flower?". I have a deep reverence and love for this man.
Bijan OK wisdom of a simple man with the raw truth and facts of life... the beauty of a flower , tree , mountains and the wind whistling with birds singing.... I wish I could have met him... I am thankful for listening to his voice on CZcams ....love is priceless...
That must have been so wonderful Bijan.
Krishnamurti was altogether a new kind of philosopher. He was fresh and novel every where he talked and taught to his adherents. He covered almost all the things relevant to our understanding and evolution. He was absolutely a revolutionary thinker influencing Europe and America.
He doesn't claim any authority nor does he show any authority any where, in his talks, in his every moment. That's the beauty of it. The best that I came across.
I owe my present clarity to THIS man. There is peace now for which there is gratitude.
I feel deep gratitude to be living at a time where I can hear what this remarkable man had to share with us. His wisdom has changed me and set me on course.
Yes, the only problem we have is ourself. It is clear. We create all the havoc with trying to change the 'what is' into 'the what should be'.
At 90 years of age he's younger than most of us
He has a head full of hair at the age of 90!
@@ricardojameson673 Actually he combs the sides of his hair upward to cover the top. Bald as a bowling ball. But a great teacher no doubt.
He had been gone 30 plus years when u said that.
This man is simply stating the facts of life. And they’re extremely simple facts
What a special human being.
I was a Christian, a hindu a Buddhist and a witch.
If it wasn't for this man, I would never have had the deep understanding necessary in these days to see through the fog of a deeply disturbed world.
Now ive seen a man speak, heard a man open his heart, and I thank God for that opportunity. It puts a person in a strange position, but ive realised that we can totally change the relationship we have with life as a human being, and instead of standing on the side, commenting on the predicament of mankind, have found that its possible to actually participate in life. Thank you sir.
so simple morality is an internal thing isnt it be free, tell me why
I hope you still see the truths that Christ offered. Krishnamurti and Christ have been my two greatest inspirations to look within myself. When you read the gospels through the mind of Krishnamurti...it brings so much light onto it.
And I hope this is not being heard through a dogmatic voice! The gospels are not dogmatic--we have been given a dogmatic interpretation, but this is far removed from what Christ taught.
No satanist no gnostic no agnostic no muslim no christian no theist no atheist . Yes pro the unity in impartiality principle . Yes unselfishness . Yes non-violence . Copy that
God ? What is that ?
Excellent comment ! Indeed JK, speaks to the insanity when he said "It is no good measure of a man to be well adjusted to a sick society ". at the 17 min mark he starts to talk about the many illusions we all live under that are created for us by TPTB. And how we wallow in it all because we assume and believe they are smarter than us because they are supposedly educated and intelligent. That is the greatest illusion of all the illusions we are forced to live with ! The solution is to simply recognize the illusions and step outside of them. That requires letting go of the junk we are conditioned to accept and realize the absurdities like the sick society he mentions ! This takes a lot of personal honesty and courage most people never seem to find because they are still stuck in the many illusions created for them.
I also enjoy the differences between a man like JK and Sadhguru. Both have different perspectives but teach the same principles and have shown me there is no perfection in people, only our own "Inner Powers" we can all tap into if we simply go inside and listen ! We all live far too much in the outer world and should strive to touch the Inner World much more than we allow our selves. Both worlds are very real and the issue is finding the correct balance. Just as body, mind, spirit and soul are all interconnected and the balance of those powers are what is important. Balance in every aspect of our life is good health and understanding. That is the whole banana.
A very good documentary and also a very good interviewer. She stays critical the whole time.Thank you.
While circulating in a bookstore I came across the myth of freedom! I was about twenty years old and this book allowed me to meet K. Gratifications.
what a beautiful man he is
To appreciate K, first see how many I, my, mine we put in our everyday language. Or feelings from a center of I, into comments, positive or negative. He's revealing incorruptible, absolute truth that humanity is indivisible, not fragmented, numerous divisions from egos. Pay him back: listen, investigate, doubt, implores our egos to the minutest wiggles, implode and explode into this pathless, timeless land. The tremendous potentiality that he mentioned time and again can then be realized and we can live attentively, simply and energetically, meditation in movement, exemplified from this sage's physical life. Thanks K and friends.
bless brother
This man also helped me a lot to understand myself and others that we are one. I felt so lost but have found my own light, thank you so much. Much LOVE.
The amazing thing is - you always get something out of hearing him, whatever your level. And you will change for the better, however little.
a truly genuine realised soul to grace us all with such mystic vision ,lost for words Bless you all
Thank you for sharing
He is like our good parents and grand parents always wanting us to be in good paths in life
merci pour ce cadeau!!!!!! merci!
Avec plaisir! Merci à vous aussi.
Thank you!
Reading him since my univercity dayd 1974 75 he has changed my life
Or did you change your life and he simply offered tools that you found useful at that time
Reading a text and studying it together and taking the content with you Every year of your life has to be immensely rewarding and resourceful.
"A living thing can't be stationary". Jiddu Krishnamurti.
A wholly beautiful conscious human, so lovable & befriendable.
If the house is in order then Society will be in order. We makeup Society so if our inner world is clear and peaceful the outer world/Society reflects & manifests truth, peace and contentment
Thanks for sharing, beautiful film!
Some people are alive but more like dead ... Where as .... some people are dead but more alive than ever. >_
The truth as it relates to conscious life has been revealed in 3 pages, Search *_Truth Contest_* and read the top entry called "The Present". The difference between knowing and not knowing is checking.
They are two sides of the same coin.
Lovely saying ..
Well Said
I love the music at the end haha
That's what happens when you live all the way to the 80s
Great teacher 🙏
The moment you follow someone, you stop following the truth
yeah. that struck me as well. glad to see you too picked it up.
Role of flower - nice!
What a genius... we all would like to find truth, and receive this truth from God through a miraculous experience. K tells us that to get to this truth, there is not other way than self discovery, there is no other way than letting go of all these erroneous beliefs : salvation thanks to a messiah, religion, ... and the belief in God itself. Only when you accept to drop everything you can meet truly the divine, which is no other than yourself. Because there is no separation between you and the rest of the universe. We all are one.
I got the chance to read Ramana and later got to listen and read to his speeches. If I had only read him it is quite likely I would have had a headache. He says 'No path' to 'Nothing'.. when we read the Q&A of Ramana that is where he edges out and Articulates every possible doubts well. Like we have a conditioning that sages have to drop the pleasures or otherwise we become cynical and judgemental. Awakening happens and everything just falls in place. But the thing is after becoming 'Nothing' one is not bound or influenced by Moralities which is essential to break the duality. One just drags along. J also gave the most simplified and highly processed form of knowledge to us which is perfectly right for this age of machines and coming times. He had a certain personality and his experience with Truth was filtering through it. When people would be tired of Religion, Cults and Groups his teaching will make sense then. Though we are not qualified to judge him but still I feel his knowledge is best understood only after elementary knowledge and basic and earnest self investigation on spirituality. He reflects earnestness and impracticality.
I once had suspicions of him because of his involvement with the Theosophical society which had such scoundrels like Madame Blavatsky and Aleister Crowley associated with it, but when I started to understand his life and what he did I began to deeply respect him. A truly enlightened human being.
Truly a Great Messiah ! Lucky to have read him . Unlucky never to have met him in person .
Jiddu said : there can be no savior no messiah .
No Guru.
Humility
Amazing human being who understands the amazingly cunning human mind and transcend it. There are always more than a few who tend to crucify what they don’t understand.
Truth needs great courage.. Strict moral.. Great energy.. And thy Grace
I got to give thee the regards thy deserve!
Every hand ,every side plays the other sides but you own them all !
Impressive!
love u k
Identify and challenge all assumptions including meaning...
Don't stop
That is the mind/idea part
Complete openness and opening further...
That is the soul part
They work together - we are both
Peace to all
Is it possible to see the whole interview of K? The questioner made some very good questions.
Bless him! Thank you
he is dead. but alive more than most of us. indeed. I understood him.

@@jorgletchler1980 Bible Study? :D
91, and straight as a pole!
🙏
The World teacher who dissolved all divisions, religions, rituals, cultures, Gods, countries, languages. Truth is within you. It is a pathless path. Explore it yourself.
Pretty basic isn't it...
(especially if the lame are not dancing...🙂)
He's a flower. He exists. And, he KNOWS it.
Where is he now ?
Everywhere. Yet, nowhere.
💜💚💙💛💗
I still have energy, I dont carry all the burdon of the past!!..
Yes, thank you for sharing part of what K says towards the end of this video!
thank you,..Love that line of Krishnamurti's,,..
IF ANY ONE recorded IN THIS VIDEO watching this, please comment!
Total freedom
What freedom??? No one can free himself from this life
Faltou a tradução em português
dommage qu'il n'y ait pas de traduction en français
Oui, nous sommes désolés.
I had the good fortune to meet him at Adyar. My belief that one must be free of all kinds of beliefs to be totally tree or else you will be a slave to that belief and perceive reality thru that belief... I told him and he agreed with me. He defied description definition
he really is no body wow
Any effort of a conditioned mind to free itself of it's conditioning, remains the action of a conditioned mind. Discover the sea which you live in, and start from there.
👌
I can't tell you how to be you!
Lord...!
Epic Noodle Cake!!!!
Know thyself.
Know thyself yes , but can we really know ourself for 100% ? I doubt it ...
@@alainmaitre2069 -I know you're a tit ....hahahaha!
😆👍✨
Krishnamurti was a figure that I read a lot after my adolescence and helped in my inner development at that early times in considering the concept of mind and etc.
Recently I saw one of the last videos on him posted in the CZcams. This video was very different because he was close to his death but still sit on his living room couch embedded totally in what looks like was his very close family.
Obviously he never knew he was being recorded nor the other family members eventually, and I do want to believe that the video was posted by this person (I imagine it had to do with a family member too) that was recording him and what they were talking about and their dynamic.
I still like his work, but somehow my path deviated from a pure rationality in understanding life and went toward what is beyond mind - the work with the shadow, myths and symbols, the chakra systems, the energies and other reaches of human in a wider scope.
Good. At least now you're looking for something practical
13:25 true seeker!
He was trying to say that the human being is a lie without crossing over toes.
He obviously wasn’t referring only to cheese makers but to all producers of dairy products.
"God is not stationary because living things cannot be stationary", K indeed knows.
That mind was still chained to time. Once you observe life from fifth and sixth dimension (as per classical physics) you can see it as an immutable+eternal truth. One can only describe things which one has experienced. There is no end to experience as per infinity. Surely there are beings far ahead of the understanding Agni Das may hold in this grand play of life :D
@@agnidas5816 Once you realize that there is no time as such, you cannot unsee it. There is only a constant floating of energy, manifesting from one manifestation into another, in a timeless realm. Even 'space' is an illusion, but it's far more difficult to understand than the illusion of time.
just be careful VesselAnaw it may De-programm you, thought first it may piss you off. Lost of Illusions is a painful process as any lost. The only purpose of his teaching is to set you free. "My only concern is to set man absolutely, unconditionally free." -- J. Krishnamurti
'cutting hair, tailoring a suit'.. is it wrong to oneself clean ? this narrator interjects tiny hint of unnecessary negative comments here & there... why?
excellently interjects popular opinion so that it may be discussed and refuted
He’s trying to point out those that DON’T get it.
because she doesn't get it. If I would've seen this in 1985, I would suspect that in 2019 people would have gotten far more awakened.
and so my dear friend here, is of course not programmed at all. Gosh!
To all those folks on here who are commenting “I owe my ______ to K” you have not understood a single thing he has said. He’s just a man.
Thank-you
jossy no organisation no temple we are because we are , its so simple , truth is a pathless land so fucking simple , dont carry burden from the past so simple
13:37
Podrían pasar esto en español, hablada en español
just listen so simple
See the soul not the body.
Las personas no acudían a la casa de Krishnamurti?
A bumper sticker reads: It is no measure of health to be well- adjusted to a thoroughly sick society. And I'm introduced to Krishnamurti. the one who doesn't seem smart? the one who isn't "adjusted" obviously.
* efface "without". from=of
A pathless land is exactly the same thing as a land with infinitely many paths... the difference is just in the jugglery of language.
How many times will you go over this? His life. His privilege. His un-earned luck! Without your money he would would have faded away, never to have been known; just another life, lived, spoiled, and disregarded. But you, with your money with your ill-gotten wealth, gained from who knows what; exploitation, use of your so-called lessers; those who worked your land, worked in your factories, gilded your cages..... gave you your un-earned wealth, adopted him, the poor blighter and turned him into an aristocrat in your own image; for God's sake listen to the way he spoke!? You groomed him into a commodity, something to be sold, used, developed and then sold again. He was not unique he was just lucky. And what he was communicating was not unique either.... There are others.....
Couple of things Ray...
ALL luck is unearned, that's the nature of Luck. I know, I've had my share ... and maybe you feel that you haven't had YOURS , ehh?
ALSO, luck ISN'T doled out in shares like that ... you either catch some or you don't.
OF COURSE there have been others ... some better than others too. How does that diminish K?
Lastly, you seem a bit more than a little grumpy ... mabye Angry even. So, WHY?
Thats what he did and he meant. Faded. Even if we were not adopted or introduced to west he would have faded. He was a living dead.
What HE actually taught is nothing but VIPASANA in fact . Practical VIPASANA.
I don't think Jesus wanted any followers either. He just wanted to teach people how to forgive and live joyfully happy.
dude wtfuck are they saying loool they make no sense the people that got interviewed in the begining ..." hes really repetitive but if you listen but not listen at the same time u will get it " hahahah that me me laugh they seem like they didn't get shit of what Krishnamurti sir ever said! they were just there for the hype
..its so not repetitive and so not difficult to understand i think
CZcams Unity in impartiality . (By Alain Maitre) . Interesting video and comments . Be also a worldteacher .
Life is a laugh and a cry and soon or late we die , so seize the day in a healthy way .
it was not for followers, don't be silly. A space for young people to learn & love with consciousness and be happy, in a very good school, without idiots sadistic brain washing them into competing laboratory experiment-making robots, or into presidents of selling weapons corporations. What are you complaining of ?
It's a bit contradictory what you say, right? He dropped the role of messiah, and you say he "was deluded into a messiah complex". He clearly wasn't thus.
For the rest: the man had grown without since child with continuous education about God, he was very morally indoctrinated. He had to get rid of it, like all of us.
He needed the space to explore. That's all. He didn't ask for it to be made a religion and a fixed philosophy to be followed. That's the responsibility from his followers.
This video is nice. But hardly manages to touch what JK was all about. And the deep implications of what he says
Hes 95 ... 😬!!!
Failure to instil morality is nothing to do with any religion. But Krishnamurthy should have known that there is no case of a god thing in Buddha teaching. Buddha said it is up to them to do and Buddha only show the way. But Krishnamurthy seems unaware despite being born in India.
yoga is part of seriousness , its so simple , the adi yogi started it laughing long time ago
Being a member of a yoga movement club is wrong . Do you want to know why ?

hello my dear jossy are we one ?
theosophists every where are waiting
for the truth krishna murti knew he
was not the messiah in 1925
the lord speaks only to one and the one is you
ask not for truth unless you find it in yourself
krishana m says you are the one
no one is the one im the head of the order
and you will be reminded there is only
one place the truth is a pathless land
the moment you follow someone you
cease to follow the truth
the truth is a pathless land
no new theories now new thoughts

When he is saying to do good rather following any religion which sets specific path, isn't he referring to bhagvadgeeta? To do good (not dharma)
Karthik Narasimha
Hi. Can you show where BV refers to doing good rather than dharma? Very interested. Thanks.
@@NoLefTurnUnStoned. i mean to say, he specifically didn't mean dharma but vaguely he means of doing good isn't it? So in that reference i meant dharma. Thank you.
Karthik Narasimha
Thanks for the reply. I was asking about where in the Bhagavad Gita it mentions this.
Thanks.

It is better to do one's own duty imperfectly than to do someone else's duty perfectly. Even dying while performing one's own duty is superior; but the consequence of following someone else's duty is dangerous.

UG died a few years ago. Jiddu died in the 80s.
What a cynical narration.
And unlike the utterly useless Queen who has achieved nothing and says nothing of interest and does nothing of interest - he gave it all away instead of greedily hoovering it all up.
