Cannot creativity include the activity of thought? | J. Krishnamurti

Saanen 1984 - Question #1 from Question & Answer Meeting #2
'Your statement that art is merely the product of thought and therefore not creation has troubled many artists, poets, musicians, including us who are here and who think they are creators. Cannot creation include the activity of thought?'

Every time I watch I say this is the best one, and then the new one comes and so on.. and every time I comment it has become memory, but action is endless....

[@AshishKaloliya]

Being non judgemental awareness all the time is difficult, but once you attain it everything becomes crystal clear.. It is peace!!

[@dazhoutian]

He makes me to reflect by myself and to inquire !!!!!!!

[@kalapitrivedi6966]

You are right!

[@robertthebrucegorman8002]

To see actually, not intellectually, words, mere profession, or of circumstances, conditions, that the self, me, I, ego is really the entire problem of the world, perhaps one can see directly, easily without reliance upon another, including K's teachings, when this is living in everyday life, not of me, or another, but the origin, that is what is vital, not all the vain desire and searching. Seeing what is, and what is beyond, if there is that, is more than anything thought can create... Yes Sir!

Being non judgemental awareness is difficult initially, but once you attain it, everything becomes crystal clear!!

He's just like any other human being. Just chose to pay attention and be aware.

[@resteringsalonze9303]

I like what Krishnamurti is saying, but in the end if we were created by mistake (not designed) then the source is a mistake so we are to. This is where I disagree, I believe we have purpose, because the source does. Therefore I would take a conclusion he of speaking of the thought of ego vs connecting with the highest source consciousness which has purpose. Purpose requires reason, which requires design in all circumstances. A reason for being, not being without reason.

[@delq]

@@resteringsalonze9303 created by mistake ? where did you get that from ? Krishnaji has indeed spoken about the sacredness of life, that is of its meaning. But is not something that can be grasped intellectually by the self the ego. The concept of design is intellectual. It is just a projection of our minds from the knowledge of things and their functions in daily life. From that they fantasise using one's imagination about a "universal purpose" distorted by their own deep rooted beliefs and perspectives.

Plz visit this plannet once again Mr k sir... Plz plz plzzzzzz

[@ranirathi3379]

lol! what for? so people like us can take his life mission as entertainment again? K already in his lifetime did all that was his to do to help man set himself free. but man wud rather not be free. that's why people prefer chutiyas like sadhguru and ravishankar, coz they keep people in cult following by becoming "gurus". K never wanted to be a guru to anyone, he said he could not be, coz only you can set yourself free. you want him to come again and spoonfeed you?

[@deedni42]

Hello

[@smlak]

The point of all creating is to make a limited form out of limitless formlessness. Nothing exists without limits, that's the point of existence. It sounds like he's indicating that limitations are inferior. That distinction (which he himself created) is kinda weird.

[@delq]

An artist creating something ends up in a limited form from limitless formlessness because he or she is using the instrument of thought to capture that formlessness. Your first assumption is actually the exact opposite of what happens. One aspires to attain limitlessness using the art rather than the other way around. And then again true limitlessness is only when the self is no more because the self has a definite structure and anything that conforms to that is deemed beautiful and artistic by the self but that is no beauty at all, another trick of the brain.

Diego?

[@ajitabh04]

The ego not Diego... caption is wrong

[@sanekabc]

Is he saying that man can create nothing?

[@swamiabhedananda4147]

Testa Yes unless the man transcends the thought! If man transcends thought, then there is creation, because it will work from intuitive intelligence and not from repetition of the past memory.

[@sanekabc]

@@swamiabhedananda4147 Is art and invention a product of thought or is it a creation when it is new?

[@swamiabhedananda4147]

Testa If the whole life becomes an art because of the art of living (not the topic which current fake money-maker gurus preach but which J Krishnamurti meant) which is living without conflict (basically a man who has been transformed through realization of his own true nature), then the the art, walking, talking, playing piano etc all become creation and not just accumulation of memory and then doing creation (which happens in the field of thought).

[@sanekabc]

@@swamiabhedananda4147 Yes, but I think that thought is sometimes suspended when artists work, so they produce something new. But your point is well taken. Now, on another note. The idea of "your true nature" I think cannot be found within K's teaching.

[@jvk1285]

Infinity is the first formless form,its expressions are creation,which is YOU,when you use will power for example its still part of creation,part of infinity(which is first expression)
