“Learning is the very essence of humility, learning from everything and from everybody. There is no hierarchy in learning. Authority denies learning. A follower will never learn.”
Krishnamurti’s Notebook
“How easy it is to deceive oneself about almost everything, especially about deeper and more subtle demands and wishes. To be utterly free of all such urges and demands is arduous. But yet it is essential to be free from them or else the brain breeds every form of illusion. The urge for the repetition of an experience however pleasant, beautiful, fruitful, is the soil in which sorrow grows. The passion of sorrow is as limiting as the passion of power. The brain must cease to make its own ways and be utterly passive.”
