Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 If you can listen in this way, listen with ease and without strain, you will find a profound change taking place within you. This change comes without your volition or your asking. #2 To listen is to hear what is being said and not to project your own desires and fears through which you hear only what you want to hear. To listen is to hear everything, including the noise in the streets, the chatter of birds, and the noise of the tramcar. #3 Listening is an art that is not easily acquired, but in it there is great beauty and understanding. We listen with the various depths of our being, but our listening is always with a preconception or from a particular point of view. #4 To listen to someone, you must be quiet. You cannot listen if you are thinking about something else. When you look at a flower, you do not name it, classify it, or say that it belongs to a certain species. When you listen without the idea of what you are going to say, you will be able to understand whether what they are saying is true or false.

WHAT ARE YOU DOING WITH YOUR LIFE?J. KRISHNAMURTII TEACHINGS FOR TEENS, edited by Dale Carlson. Teens learn to understand the self, the purpose of life, work, education, relationships. Through paying attention rather than accepting the authority of their conditioning, they can find out for themselves about love, sex, marriage, work, education, the meaning of life and how to change themselves and the world. The Dalai Lama calls Krishnamurti "One of the greatest thinkers of the age."

The teacher probes the Western problems of conformity and loss of personal values while offering a fresh approach to self-understanding and the meaning of personal freedom and mature love.

This comprehensive record of Krishnamurti's teachings is an excellent, wide-ranging introduction to the great philosopher's thought. With among others, Jacob Needleman, Alain Naude, and Swami Venkatasananda, Krishnamurti examines such issues as the role of the teacher and tradition; the need for awareness of 'cosmic consciousness; the problem of good and evil; and traditional Vedanta methods of help for different levels of seekers.

In this series of commentaries J. Krishnamurti, one of the great thinkers of our time, touches upon many human problems-our hopes, our fears, our illusions, our beliefs, our prejudices-and in the simplest language seems to pierce to their roots."The sheer simplicity is breathtaking. The reader is given, in one paragraph, often in one sentence, enough to keep him exploring, questioning, thinking for days." -Anne Morrow Lindbergh."The insight, spiritual and poetic, of these commentaries is as simply expressed as it is searching in its demand."-Times Literary Supplement (London)."Krishnamurti is no other than he seems, a free man, one of the first quality, growing older as diamonds do but the gem-like flame not dating, and alive in these Commentaries. It is a treasure."-Francis Hacket, The New Republic.
