Here’s an interesting dialogue for everybody to consider:

Krishnamurti: “So where does silence begin? Does it begin when thought ends? Have you ever tried to end thought?

Questioner: “How do you do it”?

Krishnamurti: “I don’t know, but have you ever tried it? First of all, who is the entity who is trying to stop thought?”

Questioner: “The thinker.”

Krishnamurti: “It’s another thought, isn’t it?  Thought is trying to stop itself, so there is a battle between the thinker and the thought … Thought says, ‘I must stop thinking because then I shall experience a marvelous state.’ … One thought is trying to supress another thought, so there is a conflict.  When I see this as a fact, see it totally, understand it completely, have an insight into it… then the mind is quiet.  This comes about naturally and easily when the mind is quiet to watch, to look, to see.”

– J. Krishnamurti (You are the World, 1972)
