Synopsis

Krishnamurti has said: ‘It is only when the mind is completely still that there is a possibility of touching the deep waters’.

Asserting the distinction between conditioned thought and truly creative thinking, On Mind and Thought explores what Krishnamurti referred to as ‘that vast space in the brain in which there is unimaginable energy’. These essential teachings stress that only by escaping conditioned thought can we truly achieve personal freedom and fulfilment, and that only through this individual changed will vital conflicts in relationships and society be alleviated.
