More prescient observations from Krishnamurti, which arrived in my email in-tray this morning.
“Religions the world over have insisted on the torture of self-denial, abstemiousness, control, suppression, and every form of psychological amputation. Surely to find whatever there is to be found, something not the result of your tortured, despairing life, you must have a mind that is untortured, unmutilated, very simple, very clear, without having any particular direction; a quality of mind that is really innocent, though it may have lived a thousand experiences. You must have a certain quality of open, fresh innocence”.
