The Courage to Stand Alone - U.G. Krishnamurti
We have an idea of harmony. How to live at peace with yourself -- that's an idea. There is an extraordinary peace that is there already. What makes it difficult for you to live at peace with yourself is the creation [of the idea] of what you call "peace," which is totally unrelated to the harmonious functioning of this body.
The Courage to Stand Alone - U.G. Krishnamurti
When the movement in the direction of becoming something other than what you are isn't there anymore, you are not in conflict with yourself.
The Courage to Stand Alone - U.G. Krishnamurti
If you are not in conflict with yourself, you cannot be in conflict with the society around you. As long as you are not at peace with yourself, it is not possible for you to be at peace with others.
The Courage to Stand Alone - U.G. Krishnamurti
Anything you do to experience that [energy] is preventing the energy which is already there, which is the expression of life, which is the manifestation of life, from functioning.
