"Food, clothes and shelter are necessities and they are not needs. The need
is the hidden craving, which makes
for attachment. The need for sex, for
drinking, for fame, for worship, with their complex causes; the need for
self-fulfillment with its ambitions and frustrations; the need for God, for
immortality. All these forms of need
inevitably breed that attachment which causes sorrow, fear and the ache of
loneliness..."
Krishnamurti’s Notebook, p.76 |
"...We use everything, machines, techniques for our
psychological needs and there is no love for the thing itself."
