What to expect

What Place Has Knowledge in Correct Action? Public Talk • Madras (Chennai), 1977–78 In this penetrating public talk, J. Krishnamurti explores the relationship between knowledge, thought and action. Knowledge is essential in practical matters, but does it have a place in psychological action and human relationship? Krishnamurti asks whether action based on past experience can ever be complete, or whether it must remain limited by memory, conditioning and accumulated knowledge. He examines the possibility of acting with clarity and intelligence, without the distortion of fear, motive or self-interest. A profound enquiry into thought, experience and whether there can be action that is immediate, whole and free from the burden of the past.
