  1. On the Stillness of the Mind — by J. Krishnamurti

    “The mind is quiet when it sees the truth that understanding comes only when it is quiet…When I see the truth of that, then the mind is quiet – and then there is no question of how to make the mind quiet. Only the truth can liberate the mind from its own ideation; to see the truth, the mind must realise the fact that so long as it is agitated it can have no understanding. Quietness of mind, tranquillity of mind, is not a thing to be produced by willpower, by any action of desire.”–From Krishnamurti’s Book THE FIRST AND LAST FREEDOM

  2. LIVING LIFE ALONE

    We come into this world alone and we leave this world alone. In my elder years I am increasingly alone and lonely. Looking for any reading that will help me live fruitfully with that reality. Recommendations, please. Thanks for your time and consideration. Hope you and yours are safe and well. Kind regards. David.
