What do you think of Jiddu Krishna murthy’s views on meditation? read details?
Meditation
Krishnamurti used the term “meditation” to mean something entirely different from the practice of any system or method to control the mind, or to consciously achieve a specific goal or state. He dealt with the subject of meditation in numerous public talks and discussions.
“…Meditation is one of the greatest arts in life-perhaps the greatest, and one cannot possibly learn it from anybody, that is the beauty of it. It has no technique and therefore no authority. When you learn about yourself, watch yourself, watch the way you walk, how you eat, what you say, the gossip, the hate, the jealousy-if you are aware of all that in yourself, without any choice, that is part of meditation.”[178]
I personally believe his views are of great importance! We shoild be able to attain meditation and its benefits through any means possible or viable to each individuals! I mean afterall we all think different, solve our problems i different way and even our thought processes are different!
