2nd april 1980 conversation with Prof. David Bohm.

Cleansing the mind of the accumulation of time

KRISHNAMURTI: We were saying that psychological time is conflict, that time is the enemy of man. And that enemy has existed from the beginning of man. And we asked, why has man from the beginning taken a `wrong turn’, a `wrong path’? And, if so, is it possible to turn man in another direction in which he can live without conflict? Because, as we said yesterday, the outer movement is also the same as the inner movement. There is no separation between inner and outer. It is the same movement. And we asked whether we were concerned deeply and passionately to turn man in another direction so that he doesn’t live in time, with a knowledge only of the outer things.

1st April 1980 , conversation with Prof. David Bohm.

The root of psychological conflict

KRISHNAMURTI: How shall we start? I would like to ask if humanity has taken a wrong turn.
DAVID BOHM: A wrong turn? Well it must have done so, a long time ago, I think.

K: That is what I feel. A long time ago… It appears that way - why? You see, as I look at it, mankind has always tried to become something.
DB: Well possibly. I was struck by something I once read about man going wrong about five or six thousand years ago, when he began to be able to plunder and take slaves. After that, his main purpose of existence was just to exploit and plunder. (more…)

baru kali ini saya telat bangun dan bekerja, kebiasaan tidur hanya dua jam di malam hari dan olahraga di pagi hari membuat badan tetap segar namun hari ini terjadi yang namanya ketelatan itu . mengingat sudah lebih dari seminggu saya tidak olahraga di pagi hari maka dapat dimengerti turun nya kesigapan badan. ah well, besok mulai lagi olahraga pagi agar dapat tetap terjaga hingga subuh dan badan siap diajak kerja di pagi hari. pekerjaan saya tidak menuntut olah fisik yang tinggi dan/atau olah pikir yg maksimal, dan hari saya telat bangun dan bekerja.

pernah pada suatu saat saya mengagumi aliran air pada suatu sungai dangkal yang berbatu. duduk diam di batu besar di tengah sungai, sayup2 terdengar gemersik daun tertiup angin, gemericik air, hembusan angin di wajah, hening. begitu lincahnya air berpapasan dengan batu diam, begitu lembutnya air menyapa batu diam. berisiknya pikiran saya hingga tak terdengar sapaan air di ujung kaki yang tercelup. air mengalir, batu berserakan, pasir, daun bergerak, hati, pikir, rasa.
