Early Writings, Live in the Eternal, Vol.IV |

"Truth is for me the release of the mind from all burdens of memory."

"The very fact of being aware of what is is truth. It is truth that liberates, not your
striving to be free."
The First and Last Freedom, p.265 |
|
"To receive truth, to know its beauty, to know its joy, there must be instant receptivity, unclouded
by theories, fears and answers."
The First and Last Freedom, p.270 |

"Truth is not cumulative. It is from moment to
moment. That which is cumulative, accumulated, is memory, and
through memory you can never find truth, for memory is of time - time
being the past, the present and the future. Time, which is
continuity, can never find that which is eternal; eternity is not
continuity. That which endures is not eternal. Eternity is in the
moment. Eternity is in the now. The now is not the reflection of
the past nor the continuance of the past through the present to the
future."
The First and Last Freedom, p.287 |

"There is no path to truth, it must come to you. Truth can come to you only when your
mind and heart are simple, clear and there is love in your heart, not if your
heart is filled with the things of the mind."

"You can propagate an idea, but you cannot propagate truth. I go around pointing out
Truth; and it is for you to recognize it or not."
K's talks 1949-1950 (Verbatim Report)...India Pg.5 |

"Truth is, where you are not...We are not capable of looking at this extraordinary thing called truth."
Bombay 4th Public Talk, January 31, 1982 |

Questioner: My question to you is; when you say something like, "the world is you and you are
the world," and you live it, it is clearly true. If I say, "you are the world and the world is
you," and I don't live it, is that statement still true?
Krishnamurti: Well, yes, the statement is still true when you say it, but it has no truth in it. Unknown source |

"Truth is outside of all patterns, fears and hopes."
Commentaries on Living, First Series, p.24 |

"Repetition of a truth is a lie. Truth cannot be repeated, it cannot be propagated or used."
Commentaries on Living, First Series, p.63 |

"Truth is neither holy nor unholy. Truth is neither love nor hate.
Truth is neither pure nor impure. Truth is neither simple nor complex.
Truth is neither heaven nor hell. Truth is neither moral nor immoral.
Truth is neither of the God nor of the devil. Truth is neither virtue nor vice.
Truth is neither birth nor death. Truth is neither in the religion nor without religion.
Truth is as the outside water flowing, it has no resting place. Truth is life."
