So long as the observer is observing from this matrix, it is not possible for him to see without naming, because that naming arises out of that matrix. How then can the observer free himself from this matrix? Krishnamurti: I would like to know whether we are discussing this as a theoretical problem, an abstraction, or as something that has to be faced directly without theories? Jagannath Upadhyaya: This question is directly connected with one's daily life. K: Sir, who is the observer? We take it for granted that the observer is born of the matrix, or that he is the matrix. Or, is the observer the whole movement of the past? Is this a fact to us or an idea? Does the observer himself realize that he is the whole movement of the past? And that as long as he is observing, that which is being observed can never be accurate? I think this is an important question. Can the observer, who is the whole movement of the past, with all his conditioning, ancient and modern, be aware of himself as being conditioned? Achyut Patwardhan: The observer when he looks at a fact, looks with his old conditioning, samskar. And so he cannot see the fact as it is. J.U.: Can we accept this? K: Are we all on the same level as Rimpocheji, who has asked this question: The observer is made up of the past and as long as he is rooted in the past, is he able to see the truth of a fact? If he is not aware of himself as the observer who is conditioned, there will be a contradiction between himself and the thing which is being observed, contradiction being a division. 3 A.P.: As long as he does not see this clearly, there will be conflict in the act of seeing. K: Sir, the question arises then: Is it possible for the observer to understand himself and discover his limitations, his conditioning, and so not interfere with the observation? RMP: That is the basic problem. Whenever we try to observe, the observer is always interfering in the observation. I would like to know whether there is a method to cut off the `me' which is interfering. K: The observer is the practice, the system, the method. Because he is the result of all past practices, methods, experiences, knowledge, the routine, the mechanical process of repetition, he is the past. Therefore, if you introduce another system, method, practice, it is still within the same field. RMP.: Then how can it be done? K: We are coming to that. Let us first see what we are doing. If we accept a method, a system, the practising of it will make the observer more mechanical. Any system will only strengthen the observer. J.U.: Then this leads to a deadlock. K: No. On the contrary. That is why I said, does the observer realize he is the result of all experience, of the past and the present. In that experience is included methods, systems, practices, the various forms of sadhana. And you now ask, is there a further series of practices, methods, systems, which means that you are continuing in the same direction. J.U.: I feel that it is not only possible to reject the past totally but the present as well. The past can be negated by observation, but the power of the present will not go unless the past is negated. One is concerned with the present moment. A.P.: The present and the past are actually one. They are not separate. J.U.: Therefore, we should negate the present. The roots of the past will be negated when the present is broken. 4 A.P.: You mean by the present, this moment, this present moment of observation? K: This present moment in observation is the observation of the whole movement of the past. What is the action necessary to put an end to that movement? Is that the question? J.U.: What I am saying is, it is on this moment of time that the past rests and on this moment that we build the edifice of the future. So, to be completely free of either the past or the future, it is necessary to break the moment in the present, so that the past has no place in which to rest and no point from which the future could be projected. Is this possible? K: How is this movement of the past which is creating the present, modifying itself as it moves, and which becomes the future, to end? J.U.: By the process of observation we negate the past. By negating the past we also negate the present. And we cease to build the future based on the desires created by the past. Only observation remains. But even this moment of observation is a moment. Unless we break that, we are not free from the possibility of the rising of the past and the creation of the future. Therefore, the present moment, the moment of observation, has to be broken. K: Are you saying, sir, that in the state of attention now, in the now, the past ends; but that the very observation which ends the past has its roots in the past? J.U.: This is not what I am saying. I do not accept the position that the past creates the present or the present the future. In the process of observation, past and future history are both dissolved. But the question is that again the histories of the past and the future touch on this moment, this existent moment. Unless this moment itself is negated, the past and the future are again restored to activity. To make it clear, I would like to call it `existence', the moment of `is'-ness. One has to break this moment of `is' ness, and then all these tendencies, whether they reflect the past or project the future, are broken. Is this possible? 5 K: This question has special relevance for you. I want to understand the question before I answer. I am just asking, not answering: The past is a movement. It has stopped with attention. And with the ending of the past, can that second, that moment, that event, itself disappear? J.U.: I would like to make it more clear: This moment is an `existent' moment. K: The moment you use the word `existence', it has a connotation. We must look at it very carefully. Pupul Jayakar: It is not stable. J.U.: I would like to call this moment kshana bindu, the moment of time. The `suchness' of the moment, the `is' ness of the moment, has to be broken. Is this possible? In the movement of observation there is neither the past nor the possibility of the future. I do not even call it the moment of observation because it does not have any power of existence. Where there is no past or future, there cannot also be any present. K: May I put this question differently? I am the result of the past. The `me' is the accumulation of memories, experience, knowledge - which is the past. The `me' is always active, always in momentum. And the momentum is time. So, that momentum as the `me' faces the present, modifies itself as the `me' but is still the `me', and that `me' continues into the future. This is the whole movement of our daily existence. You are asking, can that movement as the `me', the centre, cease and have no future? Is that right, sir? J.U.: Yes. K: My question is, does the `me', which is consciousness, recognise itself as the movement of the past, or is thought imposing it as an idea - that it is the past? J.U.: Could you repeat the question? K: I, my ego, the centre from which I operate, this self-centredness is centuries old, millions of years old. It is the constant pressure of the past, the accumulated result of the past. The greed, the envy, the sorrow, the pain, the 6 anxiety, the fears, the agony, all that is the `me'.

Krishnamurty & Its Implications Dr. Rucha Desai Assistant Professor – Naranlala Institute of Teacher Education, Navsari, Gujarat. [email protected] Received: 27-06-2020 Accepted: 01-08-2020 ABSTRACT Philosophy and Education both are incomplete without each other. Education is the practical side of philosophy or conversely philosophy is the theory of education. A philosophy of education is a set of beliefs about education as to what should be done in education and what the outcome of education should be. Anyone who wishes to make educational decisions ought to have a philosophy of education. As Fitzgibbons notes, educational philosophy usually contains two distinct kinds of beliefs, namely (i) Empirical beliefs (ii) Philosophical beliefs. Indian education system as such it is practiced so far is mainly based on western philosophy. However, in our own country quite a number of enlightened people have given vent to their thoughts with respect to the type of education system that suits India. Among them the prominent thinkers include Swami Vivekananda, Sri Aurobindo, Rabindranath Tagore, Gandhiji, Annie Besent and J. Krishnamurti. Almost all of them had a holistic view of education which suited the Indian condition. So here an attempt has been made to compare the Educational Philosophy of Aurobindo and J.Krishnamurty to present their views, philosophy, and principles of teaching, aims of education and its implications.

  • Mysticism and Pacifism
    Chapter 4 Mysticism and Pacifism Huxley’s mystical turn in the mid-1930s was intimately associated with paci- fism, and his pacifist convictions were reinforced by the mystical philosophy of Gerald Heard and Jiddu Krishnamurti. As noted in Chapter 1, Huxley’s involve- ment with Ottoline Morrell and the Garsington set during World War i had led him to adopt a pacifist position, and the rise of Mussolini and Hitler and the imperial tensions of the 1930s had done nothing to change his mind. His disparaging article “What Gandhi Fails to See” (1930), would seem to contradict this statement, but Huxley was not objecting to Gandhi as a pacifist but as an “ascetic salvationist” whose spirituality blinded him to inconvenient facts, such as the “distressingly easy passage from non-violence to violence”,1 or the fact that reverting to a pre-industrial civilisation, as Gandhi was advocating, would entail the “death by starvation of millions upon millions of human be- ings” (in other words, the exponential increase in population made possible by industrialisation).2 Huxley’s interest in mysticism had been dampened by his trip to India and south-east Asia in 1925–26. In the article, Gandhi is pilloried as a representative of the kind of Hindu spirituality that Huxley had deplored in Jesting Pilate (1926): “To my mind ‘spirituality’ […] is the primal curse of India and the cause of all her misfortunes. […] A little less spirituality and the Indians would now be free – free from foreign dominion and from the tyranny of their own prejudices and traditions”.3 But as the 1930s progressed, Huxley was compelled by personal circumstances to re-evaluate his opinion of both Gandhi and mysticism and by 1936 he was publicly advocating satyagraha and practising meditation with Gerald Heard and members of the Peace Pledge Union (ppu).

Borooah College, Guwahati, 781007 Abstract Swami Vivekananda, known in his pre-monistic life as Narendranath Nath Datta was born on January 12, 1863 in Kolkata. As the prophet of the present age, Vivekananda in the middle of 1890, embarked on a long journey of exploration and discovery of India. During his travels all over India, Vivekananda was deeply moved to see the appalling poverty and backwardness of the masses. He immediately grasped the crux of the problem of human feelings for others in different relationships. Finally at this back-drop we can see the principle of ‘Practical Humanism’ for Vivekananda. Being an Advaitin and not merely an Advaita philosopher, here he observes that humanism is a value oriented life inspiring ennobling principle of Vedanta. He finds this message in the principle of the ‘Atman’ i.e., in ‘Being-Consciouness’, the doctrine of the potential divinity of the soul. According to him all that is required to improve the integrated wholesome of human person is to infuse into the mind-set up, only ‘faith in oneself’. Faith in oneself can only strengthen the value of humanism. The greatest challenge arises here is: how to make the value of humanism practical? I suppose it is an indubitable issue that value in any form cannot be taught to any individual.

Following a tradition of Indian religious figures who toured Britain and America in the nineteenth and twentieth century, Baba was removed from organised religion and placed emphasis on self-realisation, and attracted large British followings notably dominated by women. This article argues that the 1930s witnessed a continuing interest in Indian religious figures and adherence to Orientalist stereotypes about Indian religiosity despite changing political dynamics.

  • Annie Besant Annie Besant Was a British Socialist, Educationist and a Women’S Rights Activist Known for Her Role in Fostering the Home Rule Movement in India
    Annie Besant Annie Besant was a British socialist, educationist and a women’s rights activist known for her role in fostering the Home Rule Movement in India. As an educationist, his contributions include being one of the founders of the Banaras Hindu University. This article will give further details about Annie Besant within the context of the Civil Services Examination. Background of Annie Besant. Annie Besant was born Annie Wood to William Burton Persse Wood and Emily Roche Morris on 1 October 1847. After completing her education, Annie married clergyman, Frank Besant at the age of 20, but her increasingly unconventional religious views led to their separation in 1873. She later became a prominent speaker for National Secular Society. Her time in the organisation led to their interest in the home rule of Ireland partly due to her mother being from Ireland . In 1890 Besant met Helena Blavatsky, and over the next few years her interest in theosophy grew, whilst her interest in secular matters waned. She became a member of the Theosophical Society and a prominent lecturer on the subject. As part of her theosophy-related work, she travelled to India. In 1898 she helped establish the Central Hindu School, later to be renamed as the Banaras Hindu University. Role in the Indian Independence Movement By 1902, Annie Besant had written that “India was not being ruled for the prosperity of its people but rather for the profits of its conquerors”. She encouraged national consciousness, fought against social evils such as caste discrimination and child marriage while devoting time and energy for the advancement of Indian education.
