Synopsis

Listen to talks from J. Krishnamurti's Amsterdam gathering in The Netherlands, 1967.This talk: Where There Is Pleasure There Is the Shadow of Pain – 21 May 1967.• The whole movement of living, which is relationship, is a movement in action.• What is consciousness? When do you say, "I am conscious, I am aware, I am attentive"?• Is there actually a division between the conscious and the unconscious, or it is a total movement, operating all the time?• The mind that pursues pleasure must inevitably invite its opposite, which is pain. The two go together; they are not separate.• You cannot see totally when you are making an effort.• Q: If you love your own child, your attention to your child is fairly complete, but if you are a teacher you cannot give your full attention to all the students.
