J. Krishnamurti - Brockwood Park 1978 - Discussion 1 with Buddhist Scholars - We are all caught in the idea of progress
Summary:
Q: Does knowledge condition human beings?
Knowledge means accumulation of information, experience, various facts, theories and principles, the past and the present. All that bundle we call knowledge. Can a mind that is burdened with knowledge see truth?
Will we get more knowledge by reading this or that, what the Buddha said, what Christ said? We are full of this accumulative instinct that we think will help us to jump into heaven.
Can I look at the fact without the word, with all its intimations, all its content, its tradition? Can I look at something without the word, without the association of words, without past remembrances?
Then only I see the fact.

in that first statement itself the discussion was completely over and explanation of everything was given. The buddhist monk could not understand that his knowledge is the knowledge of scriptures. One becomes a buddha by abondaning the boat. K has abandoned it but still the monk has not. that is the difference between and enlightened person and the one who is not.

I think he was a very aware individual.

Appreciation to the souls who gave rise to this talk and used words so elegantly to communicate about nameless things ❤
eternally grateful for making this recording available. I love the back and forth of a discussion. one of the best JK videos
"My point is, there is no duality even in daily life. It is the invention of all these philosophers, intellectuals, who say THERE is the opposite, work for that."
The entire thing K wants to tell is in the last 5 mins & to arrive there, he took 1.5 hrs . This is what guru does , shows the path ,leaves u there to explore
Such an amazing exchange thanks to the participants and to JK's subtle approach and deepening. What a sharp mind.
the words of krishnaji are facts.his voice,words is the reflection of an empty mind.his mind is the truth.we all have that.alas we are going far away from that.🙏🙏🙏
It’s wonderful they came forth to share their perspectives openly. It’s stimulating. One can see the different vibrations that souls have. We expound what we are vibrationally. They are quite different vibrations.

Wow this was quite a conversation, I struggled understanding it at the start but after a while I was astounded. It really sort of feels that JK is talking about unlearning all the sort of conditioning we use and the fact that we try to use past memories to see the fact and how silly it really is, when you can actually just see the fact without the need of the knowledge. Very wise man, the fact that you can learn so much from unlearning

Θυμάμαι όταν είδα το πρώτο του βίντεο, σε ηλικία 20 ετών, θυμάμαι είχα μείνει άφωνος καθώς διάβαζα την μετάφραση, ήθελα να ακούω και να ακούω!! Ήταν όλα τόσο σωστά και απλά τα όσα έλεγε που Παρακολουθούσα με τόσο προσοχή όσο ποτέ ξανά στην ζωή μου με κανέναν άνθρωπο, κατάλαβα πως αυτός ο δάσκαλος αυτός ο Ανθρωπος είναι ότι καλύτερο έχουμε για να αλλάξουμε τον κόσμο μας.😊
I listened to this discussion in a dream. I was sleeping, and spent much of the dream trying to turn the volume down whilst at the same time being captivated. I had the odd impression that I knew this person.
Is freedom limited by knowledge? Puff my mind goes crazy with this question 👏 So powerful.
This is one of the best discussions I watched.
The discussion is simply superb!
What an amazing debate. So respectful of each other and have clear points.
Gents, what we witnessed here is something incredible. A relationship established between a philosophic mind & a religious mind. Religious , not in the orthodox sense but a mind which has supreme intelligence- K A scholar who has been steeped in traditions - process based meditation, following precepts, fasting etc has his darkness dispelled by K . Wow
These discussions are LIFE-CHANGING!

Buddhist scholars represent our own mentality of knowledge, conditioning of mind, belief in gradual progress and not letting go it.
They have learned many things to dissolve, to control, to understand the ego. But they didn't know those are the creation of a new ego in just a good form.
Simply superb! Real explanation of non-duality. A discussion not a debate.

wow. what a depth of a discussion and the points made by k. I dont know how many people atleast tried to understand the depth of the concept as explained by k. It looked like the buddhist monk and others are trying to defend themselves rather than trying to understand the depth of the matter explained by K. it shows that the only person who has "abandoned the boat" is krishna ji. All others are carrying their boats with them. Even the buddhist monk is carrying the boat whereas he is the one to be expected to abandoned the boat. That is the essence of the buddha's teachings. Krishna ji is talking the next and improved version of the buddha's teaching but all the others sitting are sitting as just conditioned beings. May be this is what the buddha meant when he said by taking some leaves in the forest, "I can teach you this much which is in my hand of leaves and i can teach you the whole forest. But it is rare to find a person who can understand". Here Krishna ji looks like the next version of buddha and beyond buddha and trying to explain things but it is rare to find people who can understand him.
Blissed out every moment of my life
i am watching this lecture for the first time and i am so glad that i am not heavily conditioned so i understood every line of it.. the fact...just always stay with the fact live with what is just see the fact without being caught in time its so easy so simple...because of people are so much conditioned they just find it hard to live with the fact the truth
It's so true - how not having fear doesn't amount to courage. Courage is not the opposite of fear at all. If it was born out of fear, then it would have had an element of fear. If I "try" to be courageous to avoid my fear, neither my fear is gone and nor is it the manifestation of true courage, it's just running away from my fear. Like he said about freedom from conditioning. To come out of that conditioning is simply a reaction to my conditioning. Also, K just discreted Gandhi and all his talk about non - violence. XD Such an extraordinary thinker. The fact is - we are all violent. All this talk about non violence is thus non sense indeed. To see the fact and not run away from it towards the non fact because the society condemns it, is to see it actually, not in the sense of that word with it's cultural, political or past meanings. But the true nature of that feeling without the burden of it. And once we see it, it is finished because we become the observer.
Thank you very much indeed!
Very Profound for me was when K Quotes " Am I alright sir ? " And Dr Bohm says "Fine"😀
Totally fascinating!

Theravada essentially fetishizes the sutras as as a practice. Zen fetishizes practice itself. In Zen, it's about what you do more than any other sect. So I understand why. In Zen there is recognition that the spiritual game is just a game. It doesn't take itself too seriously. In other sects this is not so clear. I feel that if they had talked about practice, she would have had more disagreement. 😄

The accumulation of experience and information is of the past whereas Imagination, vitality, purpose, and focus is always of the present creatively shaping and reshaping the future anew. Here, one neither rejects nor accepts experience. but rather, If useful, build on it or otherwise cast it away as irrelevant and craft something completely new. It is not from a problematic, but rather from a joyful foundation that humanity will extricate itself from the mess we are in today and remain sustainably relevant for generations to come. Our standardized education, built on an industrial and now tech conformance platform was never designed for the task and neither was Disneyland.

Terimakasih 🙏🙏
This discussion demonstrates clearly the frustration of the speaker (K). His relentless efforts to convince us of the limitations of any methodology! This has always been the main core of his message. His explanations about the (misleading)forces within the field of time and knowlegde. That they are grossly underestimated by us and keep us aloof from realization. Not that knowledge doesn't count! But realization is not to be known as an accomplishment or to be found at the end of any number or behind a specific sign or symbol. The journey to our authentic self begins with knowledge indeed....but realization cannot be framed nor prescribed in stories, theories or evangelism. There is a thin line between "mindfulness" and "un-knowing". We should learn to be aware of it. Naturally. K, inimitable in his way of teaching, demonstrates this passionately and clearly! The way we should look at the paradox on knowledge is poetically written in The Prophet by Kahlil Gibran : "And how shall you rise beyond your days and nights unless you break the chains which you at the dawn of your understanding have fastened around your noon hour..?"
