Krishnamurti on Opposites

‘As long as we live in opposites – jealousy and non-jealousy, the good and the bad, the ignorant and the enlightened – there must be constant conflict in duality.’

This week’s episode on Opposites has four sections.

The first extract (2:27) is from Krishnamurti’s third talk in Calcutta 1982, titled: Do opposites exist?

The second extract (14:08) is from the third talk at Brockwood Park in 1978, titled: Does freedom have an opposite?

The third extract (28:30) is from Krishnamurti’s second talk in Madras 1972, titled: The battle between the opposites.

The final extract in this episode (38:54) is from the fourth talk in Saanen 1980, titled: There is only the fact, not its opposite.
