Jiddu Krishnamurti Quotes about Heart

  • Love is not of the mind, it is not in the net of thought, it cannot be sought out, cultivated, cherished; it is there when the mind is silent and the heart is empty of the things of the mind.
  • Adhere to the Truth rather than to the personality, and take to heart the Truth rather than the authority of another.
  • Truth is something which you must see immediately — and to see something clearly you must give your heart and your mind and your whole being to it immediately.
  • Intelligence comes into being when the mind, the heart and the body are really harmonious.
  • To be free comes not from changing or fixing this world, but from seeing this world as it is and opening the heart in the midst of it.
