要解放心灵，摆脱一切枷锁，你必须不执一念，看清心灵桎梏的整体。这不是猜谜，只要切身体验，你就能明白。你可曾观察事物，而不执一念？你可曾聆听、审视，而不生反应？你会说：眼睛看见，却心无一念，那是不可能的；你会说：根本不存在自由不羁之心。当你作如是说，你的心已经被一念所碍，因为你不明白自心的真相。
那么，我能审视、觉知自心的桎梏吗？我认为能，请试试吧。你能不能觉察：你是个印度教徒，或社会主义者、共产主义者云云，只是觉知而不论对错？纯粹地看见，是如此之难，所以我们总说不可能。而我说：唯有觉知自己整体的生存状态，而心不生反应，那些心灵枷锁才能彻底从深层消泯，这就是真正地解脱于自我。
——克里希那穆提《生命书：365观心日课》（The Book of Life: Daily Meditations with Krishnamurti）
Freedom from the Self
To free the mind from all conditioning, you must see the totality of it without thought. This is not a conundrum; experiment with it and you will see. Do you ever see anything without thought? Have you ever listened, looked, without bringing in this whole process of reaction? You will say that it is impossible to see without thought; you will say no mind can be unconditioned. When you say that, you have already blocked yourself by thought, for the fact is you do not know.
So can I look, can the mind be aware of its conditioning? I think it can. Please experiment. Can you be aware that you are a Hindu, a Socialist, a communist, this or that, just be aware without saying that it is right or wrong? Because it is such a difficult task just to see, we say it is impossible. I say it is only when you are aware of this totality of your being without any reaction that the conditioning goes, totally, deeply—which is really the freedom from the self.
