This Light in Oneself - True Meditation

by J. Krishnamurti

'When you observe, when you become extraordinarily aware of this activity of the self, then the mind becomes extraordinarily quiet, sane, healthy, holy.' - J.Krishnamurti

The nature of human consciousness, man’s inquiry into truth, the importance of being a light to oneself, and the true meaning of meditation, silence, enlightenment, and the sacred are the focus of this compilation. These excerpts from Krishnamurti’s previously unpublished talks are remarkable for the rare and subtle perspectives they offer on these profound themes. Seekers who are trying to find the true meaning of a religious life in the modern world will find, in these pages, questions and statements that help to intensify their search.
