Krishnamurti on Grief and Loss

‘When there is grief, we try every form of escape, but it is always there. Apparently, humanity has not resolved grief.’

This episode on Grief and Loss has four sections.

The first extract (2:35) is from Krishnamurti’s first talk in Amsterdam 1981, and is titled: Living With Grief.

The second extract (12:32) is from the fifth talk in Saanen 1981, and is titled: Why Is There Grief and Hurt?

The third extract (24:30) is from Krishnamurti’s sixth talk in Saanen 1982, and is titled: Is There an End to Grief and Suffering?

The final extract in this episode (43:34) is from the fourth talk in Ojai 1979, and is titled: Understanding the Deep Causes of Sorrow.

Each fortnightly episode of the Krishnamurti podcast is based on a significant theme of Krishnamurti’s talks. Extracts from the archives have been selected to represent his different approaches to these universal and timelessly relevant themes. Upcoming episodes are Mechanical Living, Talent and Intuition.
