I Want To Find The Source Of Joy?

I Want To Find The Source Of Joy? - Conversation with Jiddu Krishnamurthi

Search is an extraordinarily deceptive phenomenon, is it not? Being dissatisfied with the present, we seek something beyond it. Aching with the present, we probe into the future or the past. And even that which we find is consumed in the present. We never stop to inquire into the full content of the present, but are always pursuing the dreams of the future. Or from among the dead memories of the past we select the richest and give life to it. We cling to that which has been or reject it in the light of to-morrow and so the present is slurred over. It is merely a passage to be gone through as quickly as possible.
