In this expanded documentary on the life of Jiddu Krishnamurti, viewers are given incredible insight into one of the modern world's most original spiritual and philosophical figures.

One of the greatest spiritual teachers and philosophers of all time, J. Krishnamurti challenges us to question all that we know and discover our true nature in the here and now.

In this archival video, spiritual teacher Jiddu Krishnamurti attempts to trace out for his audience how one might actually observe existence without the directive taint of constant thought.

In this great pairing between two spiritual thinkers in 1968, Huston Smith interviews Jiddu Krishnamurti on the question of how to live more lucidly in a world that seems determined to stifle inner clarity.

"Can time ever end? Or, is it something that is a continuous movement? Time by the sun is one thing; time psychologically is another."

When the conscious mind looks at the unconscious, the conscious mind is already conditioned, already has its own desires, its own purposes, its own motives, its own anxieties, securities, and with that it looks; and what it looks at is its own self.

J. Krishnamurti at Claremont College, 1968, Talk 3: "When you understand the nature and structure of pleasure in relation to love.."

“We are going together to consider what is happening, not only in the outward world, but also what is happening within the world in which we live, the inside world..."

To communicate we must know that the word is not the thing and also be in that state of mind whose quality is attention, care.

Do we act casually, expecting division to end as a result of outer environment? Does change demand immediate attention and action?
