This is important

Posted on May 20th, 2007 by Bradley : Founder, OrganicAthlete Bradley
I picked up Wholeness of Life by J. Krishnamurti on my bookshelf this week.  This is important reading.  I've been drawn to Krishnamurti's ideas for several years, having skimmed his writings.  I've never had the guts to sit down and read a book. 

I quote:
"It is very important to uncover for oneself what one actually is; not according to the theories and the assertions and experiences of psychologists, philosophers and the gurus, but rather by investigating the whole nature and movement of oneself; by seeing what one actually is."
Pierce the conditioning of the human mind and become alone - all one.  Can I do that?  Even in asking that question, I give the idea that this requires some great act of will.  Krishnamurti again: "But to be aware of one's thought there is no concentration; one does not choose in awareness which thought one would like; one is just aware."
