Description

‘When you realise that any form of outward or inward stimulation breeds indifference and dullness, when one sees the truth of it, the stimulation naturally will drop away.’
This week’s episode on Stimulation has four sections.
The first extract (2:49) is from Krishnamurti’s first talk at Brockwood Park in 1983, titled: This Is Not Intellectual Stimulation.
The second extract (9:13) is from the fourth talk in New Delhi 1966, titled: Most of Us Depend on Stimulation.
The third extract (21:11) is from Krishnamurti’s first talk in Ojai 1949, titled: Relationship Is Not Stimulation.
The fourth extract (35:07) is from the sixth talk in Bombay 1965, titled: Is Beauty Stimulation?
The final extract in this episode (42:58) is from Krishnamurti’s fifth discussion in Saanen 1965, titled: Stimulants in Any Form Dull the Mind.
Each episode of the Krishnamurti podcast is compiled from carefully chosen extracts from the archives, representing different approaches to many of the fundamental issues and questions that we all face in our lives. This week’s theme is Stimulation.
Upcoming themes are Aloneness, Technology and Insecurity.

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.
