These are not your thoughts, these are not your feelings !!! - Talks With Ug

'I want to say this again. You desire. If you do not want anything, there is no thought at all. You understand? Wanting is thinking, it doesn't matter what you want -- want self-realization, want God- realization -- you want anything, that means you have to use this instrument. These are not your thoughts, these are not your feelings. You may not like it. They belong to somebody else. You want to make them your own. You have unfortunately made them your own. That's why you ask all these questions. Why do you ask all these questions? These questions have been put before to so many people -- all the sages, saints and saviors of mankind, the holy men dead and alive. They are all ready to answer. They have composed a lot of lullabies. You go and listen to them and go to sleep, if you want to. That's what you are interested in. You want somebody else to pat on your back and say, "Oh, fine, just fine, you are doing very well. Do more and more of the same and you will reach the destination you want to arrive at." What is the destination you want to arrive at? To be gentle, meek, to be soft, to talk and whisper. You know if you go to some of these monasteries in the West, the Trappist, they talk and whisper. They don't even understand what the other man is saying. That's the secret to the spiritual path.'

Ug krishnamurti : A Helping Hand For Those Who Lives In SpiritualHell

* The human organism is not interested in your wonderful religious ideas--peace, bliss, beatitude or any such thing. Its only interest is survival. What society has placed before us as the goal to reach and attain is the enemy of this living organism.

*
All that is necessary for the survival of this living organism is already there. The tremendous intelligence of the body is no match for all that we have gathered and acquired through our intellect.

* The so called self-realization is the discovery for yourself
and by yourself that there is no self to discover.
That will be a very shocking thing because
it's going to blast every nerve, every cell,
even the cells in the marrow of your bones.


* Consciousness is so pure that whatever you are doing in the direction of purifying that consciousness is adding impurity to it.


* I don't give a hoot for a sixth-century B.C. Buddha, let alone all the other claimants we have in our midst. They are a bunch of exploiters, thriving on the gullibility of the people.


* To be yourself requires extraordinary intelligence. You are blessed with that intelligence; nobody need give it to you; nobody can take it away from you. He who lets that express itself in its own way is a 'Natural Man'.


* You are not one thing
and the life another.
It is one unitary movement.
Anything I say about it is
misleading and confusing.






* As a human body it is an extraordinary
piece of creation.
But as a human being he is rotten
because of the culture.

* Knowledge creates experience and experience
strengthens the knowledge. This is a vicious circle.

* Thought can never capture the
movement of life, it is much too slow.
It is like lightning and thunder.
They occur simultaneously,
but sound, travelling slower than light,
reaches you later,
creating the illusion of
two separate events.
