Description

‘There is only 'what is', and not the changing of 'what is'. The changing of 'what is' is the movement of thought in time.’
This week’s episode on What Is has four sections.
The first extract (2:38) is from Krishnamurti’s second talk in Ojai 1983, titled: ‘What is’ and ‘what should be’.
The second extract (29:30) is from the third talk at Brockwood Park in 1978, titled: ‘What is’ has no opposite.
The third extract (40:20) is from the eighth discussion in Saanen 1970, titled: ‘What is’ contains the past, present and future.
The final extract in this episode (59:55) is from Krishnamurti’s fourth talk at Brockwood Park in 1973, titled: The cessation of ‘what is’.
Each episode of the Krishnamurti podcast features carefully selected clips from our extensive archives. The aim is to represent different aspects of Krishnamurti’s radical approach to many of the issues and questions we all face in our lives.
This week’s theme is What Is. Upcoming themes are Following, Thinking Together and The Unconscious.

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.
