ON FREEDOM is one of a series of theme books compiled from the talks, writings, and dialogues of J. Krishnamurti. Some of the other titles in this series are On God, On Relationship, On Fear, On Love and Loneliness, and On Living and Dying. “To me, freedom is absolutely necessary—freedom at the beginning, in the middle, and at the end—and that freedom is denied when I carry a problem over to the next day.

If I carry the problem over to the next day, I have provided the soil in which the problem takes over, and then the pruning of that problem becomes still another problem,” says Krishnamurti

The brain thus gets conditioned to solving problems, and it carries over…

Krishnamurti teaches that the war and destruction human beings wreak on each other and the environment are caused by our misplaced attachment to a sense of self and individuality that leads to aggression, competition, greed, and conflict. When we recognize that our consciousness is not individual but common to all human beings, we can work together in a spirit of cooperation and compassion. Krishnamurti shows that taking personal responsibility for our actions and reactions, in…
