Jiddu Krishnamurti Quotes about Awareness

  • The moment I am aware that I am aware, I am not aware. Awareness means the observer is not.
  • Freedom is not a reaction; freedom is not a choice. Freedom is found in the choiceless awareness of our daily existence and activity.
  • In awareness there is no becoming, there is no end to be gained. There is silent observation without choice and condemnation, from which there comes understanding.
