‘Distortion exists because you have opinions and conclusions. To observe, the mind must be free to look with no distortion, so that it is fresh to look and to learn.’

The first extract (2:58) is from Krishnamurti’s first talk in San Francisco 1973, titled: Can the Mind That Functions on Conclusions Be Free?

The final extract in this episode (35:18) is from Krishnamurti’s second talk at Brockwood Park in 1973, titled: Why Do We Draw Conclusions?
