Summaries of Krishnamurti's audios and videos
SA67T1 - To look, listen, understand and act, are all the same
Saanen, Switzerland - 9 July 1967
Public Talk 1
Summary
It is extraordinarily difficult to listen because we project our background, prejudices, tendencies, inclinations, impulses, opinions and ideas.
The very act of learning is action.
We are the result of the total experience, conduct and knowledge of man—it is in us.
Immaturity lies in the ignorance of yourself.
We don’t look at ‘what is’, the tree as it is. We have formulas of how we should look.
We are going to help each other to understand and be in contact with ‘what is’, which means the observer comes to an end.
