More From Jiddu Krishnamurti

The world is not something separate from you and me; the world, society, is the relationship that we establish or seek to establish between each other. so you and i are the problem, and not the world, because the world is the projection of ourselves, and to understand the world we must understand ourselves. that world is not separate from us; we are the world, and our problems are the world's problems.
World Problem Projection
Student: sir, you said you must change the world. how can you change it, sir? krishnamurti: what is the world? the world is where you live - your family, your friends, your neighbours. and your family, your friends, your neighbours can be extended and that is the world. now, you are the centre of that world. that is the world you live in. now how will you change the world? by changing yourself?
Family Peace Where You Live
The way we describe our world shows how we think of our world. how we think of our world governs how we interpret our world. how we interpret our world directs how we participate in the world. how we participate in the world shapes the world.
Thinking Our World Shapes
The scientific world, the materialistic world, the world of commerce, the world of business, the world of individualism, the world of capitalism, world of communism - all these worlds are the old story now. where we think we exploit nature, we exploit people. market rules, profit rules, money rules. we work for name, fame, power, money, profit. that's the old story.
Thinking Names People
The private experience that you perceive forms your world, period. but which world do you inhabit? for if you altered your private sensations of reality, then that world, seemingly the only one, would also change. you do go through transformations of beliefs all the time, and your perception of the world is different. you seem to be, no longer, the person you that you were. you are quite correct — you are not the person that you were, and your world has changed, and not just symbolically.
Reality Perception World
Shall you complain who feed the world? who clothe the world? who house the world? shall you complain who are the world, of what the world may do? as from this hour you use your power, the world must follow you!
House Complaining World
