‘Ideas play an extraordinarily important part in our life: what we think, what we feel, the beliefs and ideas in which we are conditioned.’

This week’s episode on Ideas has four sections.

The first extract (2:30) is from Krishnamurti’s seventh talk in Bombay 1965, titled ‘God is an idea’.

The second extract (21:42) is from the second talk in New Delhi 1964, titled ‘Is there an action without the idea?’

The third extract (33:12) is from Krishnamurti’s second talk at Brockwood Park in 1974, titled ‘There is conflict between ideas and action’.

The final extract in this episode (52:26) is from the eighth talk in Ojai 1949, titled ‘There is no idea without sensation’.

Season three of the Krishnamurti podcast continues with the format of carefully chosen extracts from the philosopher’s talks. Each weekly episode focuses on a theme explored by Krishnamurti and the aim is to represent his different approaches to these universal topics.
