Hello everyone, my name is Andrew and welcome to the video.
So today I'd like to talk about an interesting approach by J. krishnamurti into the problems
that are associated with our consciousness today.
So his approach deals with time, space and the center.
The center being that central point, which comes with a limited space.
Kind of like a sphere or what I pictured in my head like a radar.
And this center is the ego, is thought, is part of memory, is consciousness.
This center is the bundle, the accumulation of our traditions, our cultures, our experiences,
our ideas, our hopes, our dreams, our fears, everything that we can think of.
And this center, "Me" is always seeking to expand right?
I was reading this chapter, I had to read it twice because it was very complex and I
had to go really slowly into it.
So I was just like I might as well read it again, but it was interesting, because, like
I mentioned before, I got this picture of a radar.
There is "Me" and whenever there is "Me" or "I" there is always a limited space...
within me, like I have my own space.
To talk about the physical equivalent, there is "Me" and there is my bed right here.
There is my camera, my heater right here, my plants and there is space within this central
"Me" that I have established for myself.
Now beyond this, outside of this, there is also space right?
There is space outside of this room, out of my room.
So it's kind of like a circle and there's space inside the circle and there's space
also outside of it.
So doesn't everyone have this space?
And we are all seeking to expand this space, to free ourselves up more room, more space.
Even animals and insects are doing this to because animals are very territorial, they
want space to hunt and to thrive in.
So this is very similar to what we're actually seeing out here in the real world.
It's just much more difficult to see it going on psychologically, because thoughts are moving
one at a time, however, psychologically speaking, this center, this consciousness, involves
a limited space and it involves time.
Now these are problems, these are the root of psychological suffering, which bring about
the questions, "Is it necessary to have these?
Do these have any relationship to actual daily living at all?
Do we even need these?"
So most of us, because we're used to it, because we're used to concepts, living with concepts,
and therefore were used to living with problems, that's all we know.
And we feel that it is necessary, but in this video, we are questioning the necessity of
all this.
We are questioning to find out if living is possible without any problems, any conflict,
psychologically, whatsoever.
So we have this limited space, psychologically, each one of us.
And each one of us are seeking to expand.
Yet this brings about the conflict of competition, right?
Because, my space, I'm looking out for myself, the other person is looking out for themselves.
So my desire's are in conflict with their desire's.
So right off the bat, there is already this problem, these problems that arise through
having a center and putting in effort to expand ourselves, to be successful, to become someone
greater.
And not only that, but time.
Where there is time involved, this will happen, this might happen, I will become.
That involves uncertainty, fear, doubt, because we don't know what's going to happen in the
future, therefore, we're afraid that things might not work out to what we plan it to.
And through that comes about desire, hope, bravery, which were all born out of fear.
And then there's also that limited space.
Now we think, we've been influenced to believe that expanding our space, by acquiring more
things to establish as "Me" (which is also expanding ourselves, expanding our consciousness.)
We think that this will bring about freedom and happiness, but the borders are still there.
Whether I'm in this small, limited room, there is still limited space.
And even if I expand to own this whole neighborhood, I am still limited to this space in the neighborhood.
Even if I expand to this whole state and own this whole state, I am still limited to the
states.
So there is always limited space, no matter how much expansion I partake in.
No matter how much I accumulate, how much more successful I become.
And with this ever expanding conflict going on, there is comparison.
So it keeps going on through comparison right?
Because I compare myself with someone else's space and therefore, I am in competition.
My desires are in conflict with their desires and I'm never satisfied.
I'm always feeling limited to a certain amount of space, I always need more.
So how can... or is it even possible to live in this daily life, along with memory, (which
is also the center, consciousness, me.)
Is it possible to live today with this memory?
Because it's necessary right?
We need it to function and communicate conveniently at work.
We got to remember where to go, how to drive home, we got to remember what words we want
to use to communicate with each other right?
So knowing that memory is necessary, how can we also live in daily life, without this memory
operating as the central consciousness that is always trying to expand as a concept, which
brings about psychological problems that we are questioning if we even need at all?
If it even has any relationship with with actual living at all?
So this questioning that is going on now, if we are in the spirit of answering it very
quickly instead of trying to look at how the center was formed, formed by our influences,
our traditions, our culture's growing up, our economic pressures, all kinds of pressures.
If we try to answer these questions with the center that was formed by all that, by the
thought that was formed by that, then that's just us trying to expand once again, trying
to seek an answer that will free us and yet we are still limited because there is that
center, there is that thought that comes with it, that limitation.
If we set anything down, like a water bottle.
There's a limited space around it.
So what happens when we go into this ourselves, understand it ourselves, question it ourselves,
explore it.
Doesn't the mind start to observe and watch the center, consciousness, when it arises,
why is it arising, how it arises, and therefore, it sees it.
And just looking at it, it sees that, "Okay, this is part of my condition, my programming,
that is going on."
And because I've gone into it and understood it, therefore, it dissolves right?
Then there is vast, immeasurable space, where there is no conflict, no problems, whatsoever.
So will we actually do this?
I'm still trying to do it, just kind of working with it, looking at it, exploring it and always
open to talk about it and learn about it more, which is why I'm making these videos.
This is something we actually got to do on our own and not just listen or take answers
from others, because everyone else is seeking to expand and we got to understand this whole
expansion that we are all going through.
And see how it is actually the root of the problem, instead of solving the problem.
That's all I want to talk about in this video.
Thank you all for hanging out with me and as always, stay awesome and I'll see you in
the next video.
Bye bye.
