From That Silence...

".... Because it is your life, not my life. It is your life of sorrow, of tragedy, of confusion, guilt, reward, punishment.

All that is your life. If you are serious you have tried to untangle all this.

You have read some book, or followed a teacher, or listened to somebody, but the problem remains.

These problems will exist as long as the human mind moves within the field of the activity of the self; that activity of the self must create more and more and more problems.

When you observe, when you become extraordinarily aware of this activity of the self, then the mind becomes extraordinarily quiet, sane, healthy, holy.

And from that silence our life in everyday activity is transformed."


~ J. Krishnamurti
