Understanding the Nature of the Self
Investigating the self, Krishnamurti delves into questioning the essence of the self, emphasizing moving beyond conventional societal structures of me versus you. The exploration into whether the self is created by thought and thus fragmented or transcends thought to a higher, sacred state is central. The dialogue probes how all our actions stem from self-centeredness and the importance of knowing oneself beyond mere intellectual or emotional realms.
