Urgency of Change - The Krishnamurti Podcast - Ep. 253 - Krishnamurti on Emptying Consciousness
‘Meditation is the emptying of the content of consciousness, which is consciousness. That is the meaning and the depth of meditation: the emptying of all the content, which means thought coming to an end.’
This episode on Emptying Consciousness has four sections.
The first extract (2:45) is from Krishnamurti’s third talk at Brockwood Park in 1973, and is titled: What is Consciousness?
The second extract (11:!5) is from the fifth discussion in Saanen 1975, and is titled: Freedom Implies Emptying Consciousness of Its Content.
The third extract (29:44) is from Krishnamurti’s sixth talk in Ojai 1977, and is titled: Emptying Consciousness Means Thought Ending.
The final extract in this episode (42:36) is from the seventh talk in Saanen 1974, and is titled: Meditation Is the Emptying of Consciousness.
Each fortnightly episode of the Krishnamurti podcast is based on a significant theme of his talks. Extracts from the archives have been selected to represent Krishnamurti’s different approaches to these universal and timelessly relevant themes. This episode’s theme is Emptying Consciousness. Upcoming topics are The False, The Future, and Knowing.

I find the final extract (<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="2556">42:36</a>) the most valuable. ❤

To gain knowledge by reading or writing is important, but its gain is not for the purpose of money and fame. One may travel through its essence, and the voyage one may stay where you live. If one travels, actually, to far off places, what does one observe? Is the observer watching the observed one? What is it that obeserves? Who am I? Am I the story of all mankind? A passion for all things of the earth. All throughlife there will be drama, the drama of life and its beauty. It will witness little comedies...as young things grow to make their things on earth...the insects, birds and trees... watching them frolic in the misty rain....knowing them so intimately. It will witness the great changes of the seasons... and the lovliness of each. It will witness real tragedies... as an insect loses its battle for a life to a toad... or a little bird's ness is robbed...and it will live long enough to bear witness that these things are what makes life go on forever. Meditation is living in its freshness of now beyond time and thought bearing witness to all its light of life itself. With deep appreciation and reverence to Krishnamurti's teachings and the Krishnamurti Foundation 🙏❤️🌎🌏🌍🌿🕊🎵🎶🎵💫✨️💫
