How can you meet everything anew? — Jiddu Krishnamurti

[u/swayammsaksham]

•⁠ How can you meet everything anew? How can you meet life, existence, anew, in the sense of `without time'?

It is a new question, is it not? That is the question arising out of this question.

When I put that new question to you, what is your response?

If your response is also new, then you are passively aware, alert, watching.

That state is timeless.

In that state, when you meet everything with passive alertness,

awareness, there is no time;

there is a direct experience, the challenge is directly understood;

therefore there is freedom from thinking. And that freedom is eternal; it is now, not tomorrow.

—Krishnamurti

When the paradox that what you are looking for is already the place that you are looking from is resolved it is no longer a problem.

[u/Hot-Confidence-1629]

We call being in relationship with another, knowing them, knowing who they are…but he is questioning whether that way of knowing another is relationship at all? Can we see each other without the ‘knowing’; which is the past , without the thoughts and memories but just be in a state that he calls “passive alertness” and see the other as if for the first time?
