The Ending of Time (J Krishnamurti and Dr.David Bohm)
Product Details
These discussions between a great religious teacher and a leading physicist ask the question: "Has humanity taken a wrong turn which has brought about endless division, conflict and destruction?" Krishnamurti suggests that the wrong turn lies in our inability to face what we actually are and our need to impose instead an illusory goal of what we must become. The heart of the discussions therefore rests in our ideas about ourselves, about the 'me'. Krishnamurti sees the nature of man's thought as self-centred, confused and ultimately destructive, and maintains that the only way to free ourselves is through insight that goes beyond normal perceptions. This insight is achieved only be a mind that is silent, empty of thought and capable of moment-by-moment awareness. The provocative and penetrating philosophical classic of science and spirituality—a discourse between the revered spiritual leader Krishnamurti and renowned physicist Dr. David Bohm, exploring the origin of human conflict and what we can do about the barriers that stand in the way of insight and consciousness.
