你可曾研究过心理依赖问题？如果深入探究，你就会发现，我们多数人极其孤独，内心肤浅、空虚，不知道什么是爱。因为内心孤独、匮乏、欠缺，所以我们执着于外物，执着于家庭，依赖家庭。当配偶抛下我们，我们便妒火中烧。妒忌心并非爱，却被社会认定为家庭之爱，且备受尊崇，实际上是另一种自我保护、逃避真实自我的方式。而对真相的每一种抗拒，都会助长心理依赖，心灵一旦落入依赖，就绝无自由。
你的心灵需要自由，因为自由的心灵才拥有最本质的谦逊，自由谦逊的心灵才能学习认知真相，而不是抗拒真相。学习是非凡之事，真正的学习并不是知识的积累，积累知识是相对容易的，因为那是从已知转到已知。而真正的学习是从已知进入未知——唯有这样，才是学习，是吧？
——克里希那穆提《生命书：365观心日课》（The Book of Life: Daily Meditations with Krishnamurti）
A Free Mind Has Humility
Have you ever gone into the question of psychological dependence? If you go into it very deeply, you will find that most of us are terribly lonely. Most of us have such shallow, empty minds. Most of us do not know what love means. So, out of that loneliness, out of that insufficiency, out of the privation of life, we are attached to something, attached to the family; we depend upon it. And when the wife or the husband turns away from us, we are jealous. Jealousy is not love; but the love which society acknowledges in the family is made respectable. That is another form of defense, another form of escape from ourselves. So every form of resistance breeds dependence. And a mind that is dependent can never be free.
You need to be free, because you will see that a mind that is free has the essence of humility. Such a mind, which is free and therefore has humility, can learn—not a mind that resists. Learning is an extraordinary thing—to learn, not to accumulate knowledge. Accumulating knowledge is quite a different thing. What we call knowledge is comparatively easy, because that is a movement from the known to the known. But to learn is a movement from the known to the unknown—you learn only like that, do you not?
