Krishnamurti on Good and Evil

‘Goodness is something totally divorced from evil. But we have mixed the two together and we say we must fight, resist, put away evil in order to be good.’

This week’s episode on Good and Evil has four sections.

The first extract (2:33) is from the first question and answer meeting at Brockwood Park in 1984, titled: Is Goodness Related to Evil?

The final extract in this episode (48:51) is from the second talk in Ojai 1979, titled: To Be Good You Must Know Yourself.
