Exploration into Insight
J. Krishnamurti
Harpercollins
The dialogues gathered in Exploration into Insight extend over a wide range of subjects; the freedom of the mind from the bondages of memory and time, crucial changes in consciousness, and the blossoming of insight that gives deep roots of steadiness to the mind. This important volume is a critical part of Krishnamurti's continuing investigation of the structure and nature of the human mind and consciousness as well as the energy resources that lie dormant within our being. These dialogues are informed by a relentless questioning, probing, and inquiry: A "listening" and a "seeing" that bring to light depths of the self, with its vast subtleties, and expose its hidden escapes. Exploration into Insight is, for Krishnamurti, "A journey into time, into the past, into the limitless." At every phase of this quest, we are aware of Krishnamurti's mind - tentative, pliable, learning, seeking, probing, questioned, he pauses, observes, withdraws then moves forward again. Here is a listening with "the total flowering of the senses." Out of such intense inquiry arises insight, and out of insight evolve fundamental answers to the problems of life. --- from book's back cover
