K remembers himself

Post by sweetwater » March 8th, 2014, 11:38 am

As you walked on
the beach the
waves were enormous and they were
breaking with magnificent curve
and force. You walked against
the wind, and suddenly
you felt there
was nothing between
you and the sky,
and this openness was
heaven. To be so completely
open, vulnerable - to
the hills, to the sea, and
to man - is
the very essence of
meditation. To have
no resistance, to have no
barriers inwardly towards anything
, to be really free
, completely, from
all the minor urges, compulsions

, and demands, with all their little
conflicts and hypocrisies, is
to walk in life with open arms.
And that evening, walking there on
that wet sand, with the sea gulls around
you, you felt
the extraordinary sense
of open freedom and the great beauty of love which was not in you or outside you - but everywhere.

- Krishnamurti, All The Marvelous Earth Brockwood Park 3rd Public Talk 6th September 1980
