The Mind And Awareness


There is no ideal in observation.
When you have an ideal,
you cease to observe,
you are then merely
approximating the
present to the idea,
and therefore there
is duality, conflict,
and all the rest of it.

The mind has to be in the
state when it can see, observe.
The experience of the observation
is really an astonishing state.

In that there is no duality.
The mind is simply—aware.

—Jiddu Krishnamurti

In the stream

In the stream,
Rushing past
To the dusty world,
My fleeting form
Casts no reflection.
