Description

This episode marks the first of a new season of the Krishnamurti podcast. The next 50 episodes, released each week, are based on major themes of Krishnamurti’s teachings, such as freedom, self-knowledge, authority, beauty, death and meditation. Extracts from our extensive archives have been carefully selected to represent Krishnamurti’s different approaches over the years to each of these universal and timelessly relevant themes. 
 
This week’s theme is Listening. Upcoming themes are Images, Passion and Confusion.
 
This week’s podcast has four sections. This first extract (starting at 2:19) is from Krishnamurti’s first talk in Saanen 1962, titled 'The Act of Listening'.
 
The second part (starting at 35:04) is from the sixth talk in Saanen 1983, titled 'In Listening is a Miracle'.
 
The third part (starting at 44:50) is from the fourth talk in Ojai 1977, titled 'The Art of Listening'.
 
The final extract this week (starting at 50:34) is from the ninth talk in Saanen 1965, titled 'You are Listening to Yourself and not to the Speaker'.

What are you doing with your life? Can anyone show you the way, or must you be a light to yourself? Do we see the urgency of change? One of the greatest spiritual teachers and philosophers of all time, J. Krishnamurti challenges us to question all that we know and discover our true nature in the here and now. This official podcast from Krishnamurti Foundation Trust is now in its third season of weekly episodes. Season 1 (Episodes 1-50) features conversations between Krishnamurti and luminaries from many paths, along with readings of the classic book Commentaries on Living by actor Terence Stamp. Episode 51 onwards features carefully chosen extracts based on a theme explored by Krishnamurti. The extracts from our archives have been carefully selected to represent his different approaches to each of these universal and timelessly relevant themes. Krishnamurti deeply inspired many well known figures, such as Bruce Lee, Eckhart Tolle, Jack Nicholson, Van Morrison, Deepak Chopra, George Lucas, Aldous Huxley and Jack Kornfield.
