  1. The difference between a Religious person and a Spiritual person. Is that a Religious person is told how to behave, what to think and what to do. As a Spiritual person as there is no need for him to be told how
    to behave, what to think or what to do, as they just know what to do.🥳

  2. Connecting on what he is saying
    U can download divine information and guidance from deep meditation
    Making u clear sharp and bright to take ur own decisions based on your life
    Since its a seeker channel right, good to add wrapping up the idea

  3. we are the rest of mankind means that we are all psychic in one way or other, knowing that is by reading the book of oneself. The one who realizes this , is a light to himlf. He will not depend on anybody for anything. He will be living in the present .

  4. J. Krishnamurti often sat on his hands to help ground his physical body and manage the intense, involuntary physical tremors and energy surges he experienced during his deep states of meditation and altered awareness.

  5. “The ‘me’ is the rest of MANKIND.”
    The story of the individual who goes to this level of inquiry understands not only their little selves, but also the story of mankind.

  6. But what do you do with all this freedom and where do these moral compunctions come from that tell you you shouldn't do this and you should do that ? We all get impulses to do bad things do we not? If we have all the ultimate Freedom then why are we suppressing ourselves from doing them? Just a thought , not looking reaffirm or justify anything.

  7. Les conseilleurs ne sont jamais les payeurs et un conseil est une lourde responsabilité à prendre ( sauf si on sait par avance que l'on parle à un mur qui n'en fera qu'à sa tête) je suis très avare de conseils ( et en fait j'ai du mal à suivre ceux que l'on me donne par un manque de confiance absolu et une expérience, récente, de la méchanceté humaine

  8. who's there to tell me what to do?! What can anyone possibly do without air-water-food= life essentials?! Why do people, including JK ignore this very fact of life? Who/what is really the doer in any doing?

  9. Why is he telling people so much then…? Why communicate at all? Why communicate his view, why denounce other views?

    He says one can read a book & learn & not depend on anyone from outside… Isn't the author of the book an outsider?

    I totally disagree with him when it comes to denouncing the time tested, long standing methodologies like the Guru Sishya Parampara…

  10. But why should I not let someone tell me what to do? There is no harm in seeking counsel? When you are a child and know nothing better, you need to follow parental guidance. When you grow up, you have choices and bounded rationality. You explore within your relationships who is equipped to advise you. For legal advise you may speak a lawyers advise. And so on. I think seeking advise is fine.

  11. Many people would rather be a possession, i.e. somebody's slave, than to face the thought that they are on their own and nobody is watching after them. This is why the idea of a "God" as a personal ruler sells so well to this day.

  12. ​​ i think there is another reason for the duality that makes people think they are separate from the world

    people pretend to be individuals so they can be selfish
    and greedy
    and possessive
    and controlling
    and angry and hateful

    and to turn their backs on the rest of humanity, and the life that encompasses this world

    showing no concern for anyone but themselves, and a handful of others of their own choosing

    to their own demise

    you are not the queen bee
    you are not the soldier bee
    you are not the honey bee

    you are all the bees
    and the hive
    and the fruit tree its in
    and the flowers
    and the sun
    the rain
    the wind
    the soil
    the Earth

    you are all of it

    you are the consciousness of all of it

    you are responsible for all of it

    now you know what you should do
