Jiddu Krishnamurti quote on Love

Love is something that is new, fresh, alive. It has no yesterday and no tomorrow.
It is beyond the turmoil of thought. It is only the innocent mind which knows what love is, and the innocent mind can live in the world which is not innocent.

To find this extraordinary thing which man has sought endlessly through sacrifice, through worship, through relationship, through sex, through every form of pleasure and pain, is only possible when thought comes to understand itself and comes naturally to an end. Then love has no opposite, then love has no conflict.

You may ask, `If I find such a love, what happens to my wife, my children, my family? They must have security.' When you put such a question you have never been outside the field of thought, the field of consciousness. When once you have been outside that field you will never ask such a question because then you will know what love is in which there is no thought and therefore no time. You may read this mesmerized and enchanted, but actually to go beyond thought and time - which means going beyond sorrow - is to be aware that there is a different dimension called love. But you don't know how to come to this extraordinary fount - so what do you do?

If you don't know what to do, you do nothing, don't you? Absolutely nothing. Then inwardly you are completely silent. Do you understand what that means? It means that you are not seeking, not wanting, not pursuing; there is no centre at all. Then there is love.


I wish it was that easy...what do YOU think?

Love is illogical and not always pleasant. Above anything, it's passionate and unconditional. Love is all we need.

Love is a many spledored thing. It has many definitions. It has many directions. In some languages it requires two or three words to carry all the meanings of the english word love.
Whjen all of that is said and all the definitions in we still don't know what or why it is.
But two things I know
God and Betty love me without conditions.

Love is sacred. Family is sacred. There is no reason that justifies destroying a family. There is no reason not to feel love. There is a inner respect for the two sacred things. But we must not forget that love is no possession. The freedom and identity of the other are also sacred. A marriage must be a union of Peace and Respect, not of possession. That says it all, I think.

I think that what the author is describing is enfatuation from an extramarital affair, one that was a lot more satisfying than making love with his wife. It was so fantastic for him, that he wants it more than he does his wife and family right now. He calls it real love.

Very typical of men who go outside of the marriage.

That's what I think.

Here is what I think. Secretia's thinking is correct. There is none closer to love, than TRUTH! Truth and correctness.

1. "Love....has no yesterday and no tomorrow." TRUE!

2. "...when thought comes... to an end. Then love has no opposite, then love has no conflict."

TRUE! Except that love IS "thought" of the highest order.

3. "then you will know what love is in which there is no thought and therefore no time."

FALSE! Love must be preceded with knowledge. I must KNOW something before I can LOVE it/He/She.

4. "f you don't know what to do, you do nothing...Absolutely nothing. Then inwardly you are completely silent...Then there is love."

YES! "BE STILL, and know that He is God...not ME!" God, the Author of Love, IS love. All the kinds of valid love, as opposed to insane "love".

And yet....I close with
Besos!
amor y paz!

Love is so many things. We decide to love or not love each second of the day.

True love renders trust, compassion and desire. Those whom look on the outside of the center are lacking one or more of these things in their relationship.

Thanks for your comments my friends.

thoughts said...

its interesting. beautiful way of looking at love.

i too think love is a feeling to be felt, and it differs from man to man.

Fireblossom said...

What do I think, dear Dulce? I think that this man probably doesn't get invited to many parties.

I've never been a subcriber to that whole non-attachment, shun-desire stuff. Give me desire and passion, even if it means a great deal of pain sometimes. Both pleasure and pain let me know I am ALIVE!!!

Calli said...

All interesting thoughts and comments.

All I can say is: "Love is Love"...and it encompasses many, many things, many feelings, many emotions, absolutely desire and passion as Fireblossom has said.

Maybe, he is saying in the last part...if you are silent, and not anxious in any way for love, then love comes.

So many interpretations on love... ♥

Love is complicated, yet love is love.
