Džiddú Krišnamúrti , pseudonym Alsion, bol indický filozof, predstaviteľ džňánajogy, a básnik. Najväčší duchovný učiteľ 20. stor. Typom filozofovania ho radia k učiteľom života, k akým patril napríklad H. D. Thoreau alebo A. Schweitzer.

V r. 1909 zaujal členov Teozofickej spoločnosti schopnosťou spontánne upadnúť do extázy. Vychovávali ho pod vedením vedúcej Teozofickej spoločnosti A. Besantovej.

Roku 1912 ho vyhlásili za mesiáša, nového spasiteľa ľudstva , v dôsledku čoho došlo k rozkolu v Teozofickej spoločnosti, od ktorej sa odštiepila antropozofia na čele s R. Steinerom. Krišnamúrtiho prívrženci sa zjednotili do rádu Hviezdy východu. Krišnamúrti vtedy učil: Božské je všehomír, ktorého intuitívnym poznaním dospievame k mieru svojej duše.

Krišnamúrti sa však v roku 1929 odmietol zúčastňovať na akejkoľvek náboženskej činnosti a jej organizovaní a ako základný cieľ si vytýčil pestovanie slobody pri hľadaní pravdy: rozpustil rád Hviezdy východu, pretože dospel k názoru, že pravda sa nedá organizovať.

Krišnamúrtiho myslenie je principiálna improvizácia, ktorá sa cieľavedome vyhýba stabilite termínov. Krišnamúrti odmieta uzavreté predstavy o bytí a systémy. Krišnamúrti nepožaduje od svojich poslucháčov zapamätanie si, lež účasť. Naozajstné chápanie pravdy predpokladá uvoľnenie miesta činnosti prýštiacej z hlbiny osobnosti.

Krišnamúrtiho filozofia pripomína do značnej miery európsky existencializmus, na otázky čiastočne zodpovedá v duchu tradícií východného náboženského myslenia vychádzajúcich z chápania absolútna v raných upanišádach a buddhizme. Wikipedia

Džiddú Krišnamúrti: Citáty v angličtine

“In this constant battle which we call living, we try to set a code of conduct according to the society in which we are brought up, whether it be a Communist society or a so-called free society; we accept a standard of behaviour as part of our tradition as Hindus or Muslims or Christians or whatever we happen to be. We look to someone to tell us what is right or wrong behaviour, what is right or wrong thought, and in following this pattern our conduct and our thinking become mechanical, our responses automatic. We can observe this very easily in ourselves.”

“The traditional approach is from the periphery inwards, and through time, practice and renunciation, gradually to come upon that inner flower, that inner beauty and love — in fact to do everything to make oneself narrow, petty and shoddy; peel off little by little; take time; tomorrow will do, next life will do — and when at last one comes to the centre one finds there is nothing there, because one's mind has been made incapable, dull and insensitive.
Having observed this process, one asks oneself, is there not a different approach altogether — that is, is it not possible to explode from the centre?”

“Meditation is not a process of learning how to meditate; it is the very inquiry into what is meditation. To inquire into what is meditation, the mind must free itself from what it has learnt about meditation, and the freeing of the mind from what it has learnt is the beginning of meditation.”

“There are many for whom the Qualification of Desirelessness is a difficult one, for they feel that they are their desires — that if their distinctive desires, their likings and dislikings, are taken away from them, there will be no self left. But these are only they who have not seen the Master; in the light of His holy Presence all desire dies, but the desire to be like Him.”

“Throughout theological history we have been assured by religious leaders that if we perform certain rituals, repeat certain prayers or mantras, conform to certain patterns, suppress our desires, control our thoughts, sublimate our passions, limit our appetites and refrain from sexual indulgence, we shall, after sufficient torture of the mind and body, find something beyond this little life. And that is what millions of so-called religious people have done through the ages, either in isolation, going off into the desert or into the mountains or a cave or wandering from village to village with a begging bowl, or, in a group, joining a monastery, forcing their minds to conform to an established pattern. But a tortured mind, a broken mind, a mind which wants to escape from all turmoil, which has denied the outer world and been made dull through discipline and conformity — such a mind, however long it seeks, will find only according to its own distortion.”

“Passion is something which very few of us have really felt. What we may have felt is enthusiasm, which is being caught up in an emotional state over something. Our passion is for something: for music, for painting, for literature, for a country, for a woman or a man; it is always the effect of a cause. When you fall in love with someone, you are in a great state of emotion, which is the effect of that particular cause; and what I am talking about is passion without a cause. It is to be passionate about everything, not just about something, whereas most of us are passionate about a particular person or thing. I think one must see this distinction very clearly. In the state of passion without a cause, there is intensity free of all attachment; but when passion has a cause, there is attachment, and attachment is the beginning of sorrow.”
