Krishnamurti: A Revolution in the Mind Saanen 1961, Public Meetings 8/9: To Die Implies Having No Continuity of Thought

The conscious mind cannot observe the unconscious.

The educated, recent mind cannot possibly inquire into the unconscious, which is old, which is the residue of time, of the race, of experiences.

The unconscious is the repository of infinite knowledge of things that have been.

Examining and interpreting fragmentarily strengthens the layers of the unconscious, hidden mind.

The unconscious must be approached negatively because you don’t know what it is.

If there were no tomorrow, or the next minute, would there be fear?

Dying to thought is the ending of fear.

The whole content of consciousness is a process of thought, therefore it is bound within time.

Can the mind be free of time?

Dying is dying to thought.

Various questions were asked by the audience at the end of the meeting.
