You know what's sad? There once was a guru who meditated all of his life, to prepare himself for death, so he could be quiet even in the face of his own death. But shortly before his death, he got dementia and forgot about meditation. Even worse, he would ramble and squeal in terror randomly, without any context, his mind was at constant unrest. He died exactly how he did not want to die.

"The way I appear now, I will never appear again. I am Life, and I am always changing. But still I am, always. And I can always rest in myself."

The motive of sitting silently and watching thoughts is not just to watch it. the objective is to change previous mindset that reacts to thoughts, the work here is to observe thought without judgement. The mind tends to cling to good feelings or thoughts and avert bad feelings or thoughts, the challenge is to be calm and unattached to both of the thoughts just witness. pure bliss showers when the state comes when you are unaffected by any of them, slowly you can enter the state of no mind. the purpose of sitting silently and watching thoughts comes not just by sitting 20 mins in morning, 20 in afternoon. The meditation is state achieved in between that watching of thoughts.

My experimentations, quite extensive with sitting meditation brought me to a conclusion that it's pointless to sit in meditation for the sake of sitting in it. Even if it's supposed to serve some purpose - even the one you mentioned. Simply because anything you do should derive from the real deep need. Not from a need for calming the mind or any other need that serves a rational purpose, but from The Need - kind of an urge in you. Deep, beyond any rationalism which makes life impossible because it utterly grasps your attention and demands to be seen and respected. This need is the truth about you. Some people have this urge towards revelling the mystery of life in a spiritual way. Others more outwardly in the realm of science or art or any other field. Some people might be extremely dedicated to their families others to achieving god knows what in sport. As far as I understand life, if you follow this urge in you, really focus on it and give yourself to it it will bring you very far. You'll calm your mind naturally - as a side effect - because you're gonna be concentrated on figuring out this what burns inside you. Your life gonna be real and alive. Be yourself, truly and honestly. Don't betray yourself. Nothing more is needed. And damn, you'll achieve wonders. If you engage yourself in practices believing they will reveal anything to you you're just distracting yourself. Take care and everything good to you.

Then a question comes, bringing interest in the inquiry, consequently quieting the mind without effort. I guess that whenever the mind is not quiet, it means we are not interested in what is happening, rather in what could happen or has happened.

Lately, my best way of understanding it is this: When we were children, we all knew what it was like to lay down on the grass and watch the passing clouds. We were fascinated--mesmerized--by the changing shapes. This was meditation, the deepest kind of meditation people strive for now with various systems. But it was so easy for us. We didn't even have to try. Sometimes this might have even happened laying on our beds, looking at something relatively "boring" like the light switch or a scratch in the paint on the windowsill. But we were in maybe a relaxed or sleepy state of mind that we still became fascinated and the mind became quiet and one-pointed at looking at this object. This is wht Krishnamurti is talking about: The lack of a purpose or a goal, the simple act of beng fascinated with something. In this moment of fascination we lose ourselves and have an encounter with our primal mind or pure awareness.

His intelligence is off the charts. He strikes me as one who did not suffer fools.

You can be quiet in day to day activity . By simply becoming the watcher of the thoughts. But i think in morning meditation you can set the tone for all your endeavors for the rest of they day. Not trying to silence or control the mind simply watching and not believing all the thoughts and impulses of it. Being present moment to moment not just in the time of meditation.

When walking, just walk. When sitting, just sit. But above all, don't wobble.

Sitting quietly, or meditating with a method, works momentarily on a very superficial physical plane. But K is leading us to implore our deepest psyche, to see ultimately if we're self-oriented, center-generated doers in this action world. We must be the doer with no center, no identification, no divisions, no conflicts. That's responsible fearless love in action, only mediation in life. Thanks K and friends.

I don’t seem to have any motive to have an end of sorrows etc. but that does happen. Surely desires, greed and so on do come back again. So do come back sorrow and so on. They must be ended again.

From my perspective, it doesn't take a physical posture or "proper" place to observe our own mind, it must be done uninterruptedly wherever we are. Any time, any place. There is no right place or time to observe, there is only observing, that is the first and last step. Perhaps from there, in that observation that ends up quieting our own minds, not as a sought after purpose but as a natural consequence, only then, perhaps life will begin to reveal to us the deepest and most unknown meanings of our own existence, ever reached by thought.

He declined to be a Leader by saying "truth is a pathless world". It must ultimately be undertaken by oneself despite a plethora of Guides serving as your gurus helping you in various stages in your progress.

Motive. Why we do it. Why are we compelled. Finding that motive is a meditation in itself perhaps. Tie this to the 4 noble truths taught by the Buddha. The 2nd truth of the cause of stress is craving and clinging to phenomena due to ignorance of the Nature inherent in all things and that they are impermanent. You know the Buddha did warn about three cravings. Sensuality, being, and not being. Those renouncing the world and sitting in quiet meditating in many cases still crave various states of existence or experiences they hope to achieve through that practice. K was on another level. I really love his radical honesty.

It's just trying to be sincere and honest toward yourself. Don't glorify it like that 😂

Question: You seem to object even to our sitting quietly everyday to observe the movement of thought. Is this, by your definition, a practice, a method and therefore without value? Now the questioner asks: What is wrong with sitting quietly every morning for twenty minutes, in the afternoon another twenty minutes and perhaps another twenty minutes in the evening or longer - what is wrong with it? By sitting quietly you can relax, you can observe your thinking, your reactions, your responses and your reflexes. What is the motive of those who sit quietly by themselves, or together in a group? What is the motive behind the desire to sit quietly for half an hour every day? Is it not important to find out why you want to do this? Is it because somebody has told you that if you sit quietly you will have parapsychological experiences, that you will attain some kind of peace, some kind of understanding, some kind of enlightenment, or some kind of power? And, being rather gullible, you pay thousands of dollars to receive instructions and a mantra which you can repeat. Some people have paid thousands of dollars to a man who will give them something in return - specially a Sanskrit word - and they repeat it. You pay something and you receive something in return; what is the motive behind it? Why are you doing this? Is it for a psychological reward? Is it that by sitting quietly you attain some kind of super-consciousness? Or is it that you want that which has been promised by your instructor? So it is important - before we plunge into all this - to find out what is your motive, what it is that you want. But you do not do that. You are so eager and gullible; somebody promises something and you want it. If you examine the motive, you see that it is a desire to achieve something - like a businessman's desire to earn a lot of money. That is his urge. Here the psychological urge is to have something that a guru, or an instructor, promises. You do not question what he promises, you do not doubt what he promises. But if you ask the man who is offering you something: Is it worthwhile? Is it true? Who are you to tell me what to do? then you will find that sitting quietly, without understanding your motive, leads to all kinds of illusory psychological trouble. If that is the intention of sitting quietly, it is not worth it. But if while sitting quietly without any motive, or walking quietly by yourself or with somebody, you watch the trees, the birds, the rivers and the sunshine on the leaves, in that very watching you are also watching yourself. You are not striving, not making tremendous efforts to achieve something. Those who are committed to a certain kind of meditation find it very hard to throw that off because the mind is already conditioned; they have practised this thing for several years and there they are stuck. And if somebody comes along and says: "What nonsense all this is" they may, at a rare moment, become rational and say: "Yes, perhaps this is wrong; then begins the trouble, the conflict, between what they have found rationally for themselves and that which they have been practising for the last ten years - a struggle that is called progress, spiritual progress! The mind is always chattering, always pursuing one thought or another, one set of sensory responses after another set of responses. In order to stop that chattering you try to learn concentration, forcing the mind to stop chattering and so the conflict begins again. This is what you are doing; chattering, chattering, talking endlessly about nothing. Now, if you want to observe something, a tree, a flower, the lines of the mountains, you have to look, you have to be quiet. But you are not interested in the mountains, or the beauty of the hills and the valleys and the waters; you want to get somewhere, achieve something, spiritually. Is it not possible to be quiet, naturally - to look at a person, or to listen to a song, or to listen to what somebody is saying quietly, without resistance, without saying, "I must change, I must do this, I must do that", just to be quiet? Apparently that is most difficult. So you practise systems to be quiet. Do you see the fallacy of it? To practise a method, a system, a regular everyday routine, as a result of which you think the mind will at last be quiet; but it will never be quiet; it is mechanical, it has become set in a pattern, dull and insensitive. You do not see all that; you want to get something - an initiation! Oh, it is all so childish. If you listen quietly, not saying the speaker is right or wrong, or saying, I am committed to this, I have promised not to give it up; I am this, that, the other thing", but listen to what is being said without resistance, then what you are doing is your own discovery, then your mind in the very process of investigation becomes quiet. So can we, ordinary people, with all our troubles and turmoils, be quiet and listen to all the prattlings of our own movements of thought? Is it possible to sit, or stand, or walk quietly, without any promptings from another, without any reward or desire for extraordinary super-physical sensory experiences? Begin at the most rational level; then one can go very far.

How can i quiet my mind? If i simply see someone speaking, i see many thoughts arising as well as i see my motive of seeing those thoughts.

From my perspective, it doesn't take a physical posture or "proper" place to observe our own mind, it must be done uninterruptedly wherever we are. Any time, any place. There is no right place or time to observe, there is only observing, that is the first and last step. Perhaps from there, in that observation that ends up quieting our own minds, not as a sought after purpose but as a natural consequence, only then, perhaps life will begin to reveal to us the deepest and most unknown meanings of our own existence, ever reached by thought.

surender mekala also I falled asleep listening to this as if there is nothing else in this world to care for. Such is the charm of this gentleman. Hats off

I just want to cry, i feel my mind is conditioned for the thought of "studying" that makes listening to any thing that i find useful very difficult. Cause "i have to **learn** from it". In a way that's making me not even paying attention to whatever that i want to know about. I finally feel like i can truly say that i understand what does it mean to be here or to do something without motive or without waiting for something in return. For all the psychological burden that this motive bring, Just be here without trying anything, without forcing anything simply enjoying this beautiful moment and life.

Still humanity is in confusion and fear, full of conflicts..

As always what he says is profound and of immense value.

Thank you, it's amazing when you observe one self, how one realises how one has forgotten to be himself or herself.

at least I am learning new english words by listening to K sir! Its improving.

K is the sunlight which shines light on the darkest and most hidden aspects of humanity and the human mind and sees through everything to an extent that it makes one feel utterly naked and vulnerable. Everything is put in its place and what remains is just crystal clarity

What a cut! What a clip, fantastic! :) And what an ending.. very nice cut! It is fascinating and joyful to observe Him as He speak :) then the words becomes scent

Great wisdom🙏🙏🙏

Meditation is listening to soothing voice of this great man ☺.

There's nothing to comment ....i'm just grateful for the lessons that opens my mind to see through the great Illusion....!

It seems at its root the watching of thought is for brain to be sensing brain activity. It's so easy to forget that all consciousness, whether it is the sensation of space out there as the physical environment or the sensation of space-time thought as moment been or possible to be as so-called past/future, is taking place inside the darkness of skull as silent brain activity. Brain seeing, sensing brain activity is the discovery that reveals the root of our existence.

Merci Meeschter.

Wow... I didn't expecting that. Thank you so much.

Brilliant !!

A most important message of our age .

That was excellent….. thank you

meditation relaxes me.

When we act out of selfishness, everything becomes corrupted. It doesn't matter if it's about meditating or helping others. We are doing it to obtain some kind of reward. One must free oneself from one's own selfishness, not by suppressing it or fighting against it, but by understanding the conditioning that prevents us from loving ourselves and loving others. Only an innocent heart is touched by the Truth.

Very true excellent video 👍 brilliant 🎉

Thank you.

I love this man

Telling myself to "be quiet" begins the motion again. I've learned that awareness is it's own thing. This awareness is what witnesses the mind's activities, including the mind's attempts to 'try' to "be quiet". Natural stillness is not a reward that is 'earned' in an imagined future through some effort driven by mind. Natural stillness IS... here, now.

Sprinkling beauty into living

Wow, this is the most incredible piece of advice I have received. It took me a while to understand what he was getting at.But in the end he made a lot of sense with the scientise example. So, what he is saying is that the mind can be quiet and peaceful only when you achieve your goal or you are constantly working towards achieving your goal. It is not the nature of the mind to be quiet. Even if you practise meditation for a long time for several years, it will only make the mind full, mechanical and in the end make you crazy because you won't achieve your goal. So, it is important to have a goal at all times.

Where in this video is he talking about having a goal?? Motive is, if not the same, almost like a goal. What JK is saying here is to simply observe the operation of the mind without any motive or goal. That is, being completely neutral. Not taking any position for or against what's going on in the mind. He is also asking people who practice meditation of any kind to question their motive as to why they are doing it. Some people secretly harbor various desires in doing meditations. Therefore, this bias of having a motive doesn't allow you to observe neutrally. In fact, motive or goals are subtle thoughts. Which means you are back IN your mind and not observing it.
