Krishnamurti on Attachment

‘Where there is attachment to a problem, to an idea, to an ideal, to a person, to a dogma, to a ritual, to an organisation, there must be corruption.’

This week’s episode on Attachment has five sections.

The first extract (2:29) is from Krishnamurti’s sixth talk in Saanen 1972, titled ‘Why are we attached?’

The second extract (11:04) is from the fifth question and answer meeting in Saanen 1980, titled ‘The consequences of attachment’.

The third extract (23:14) is from Krishnamurti’s second talk in Saanen 1974, titled ‘Attachment is more important than detachment.’

The fourth extract (34:47) is from the third talk in Saanen 1980, titled ‘Observing attachment.’

The final extract in this episode (51:25) is from Krishnamurti’s sixth talk in Saanen 1978, titled ‘The ending of attachment’.

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.
