have you ever noticed that when you respond to something totally, with all your heart, there is very little memory? it is only when you do not respond to a challenge with your whole being that there is a conflict, a struggle, and this brings confusion and pleasure or pain. and the struggle breeds memory. that memory is added to all the time by other memories and it is those memories which respond. anything that is the result of memory is old and therefore never free. there is no such thing as freedom of thought. it is sheer nonsense.


*i have to think about this. rewriting i can see the writing as kin to my own. i wrote that, though krishnamurti wrote it first. but what did it mean? if it's true it's also a thought and not free. interesting to think there is no free thinking, so no free thinkers. and it takes some curious and thoughtful thinking to think a thinker thought of that. i've always felt nonsense is most refreshing and liberating. how we need to think of ways to employ our brains while our nonsensical souls sneak out to play like free animals would.
