A man who lives never asks what is living and he has no theories about living. It is only the half-alive who talk about the purpose of life.
—Krishnamurti
We all talk of God: In every religion, in every church and temple that word is used, but always in the image of the known. It is only the very, very few who leave all the churches, the temples, the books, who go beyond and discover... If I really want to find out what is on the top of the mountain and beyond, I must go to it. It is no good my sitting here speculating, building temples, churches, and getting excited about them. What I have to do is to stand up, walk, struggle, push, get there, and find out; but as most of us are unwilling to do that, we are satisfied to sit here and speculate about something that we do not know. And I say such speculation is a hindrance, it is a deterioration of the mind, it has no value at all; it only brings more confusion, more sorrow to man.
You can find this passage in Jiddu Krishnamurti’s great book — On God
"It is no good my sitting here speculating,
building temples, churches, and
getting excited about them."
I feel called out :O
Too much thinking, not enough doing for me. No better time than the present to begin transforming...
Sometimes I just sit in my garden and feel a poem coming on. Then I just sit in my garden and make it my wordless poem.
