The boy sent to visit Death | Krishnamurti 

NO OTHER guru/baba contemporary or past holds the place K holds in my heart. there's not a shred of pretence in him, not a shred of wanting to be validated or to validate, not a shred of being "important". i feel him in my heart.

One of his books,"the awakening of Intelligence", saved me a lot of troubles as a youngster and started a life long companionship with the great yet simple Krishnamurti.

"Anything to divert us, move away from ourselves"

Nachiketa!!!

At the end he says " He goes into the question of time,self and the ending of self". There lies the cause for him to narrate the story. Upanishads are of Vedic times and very ancient. But the quest for a human being to know oneself is timeless.JK has been continuously hinting on that quest in his own inimitable way in our own times.

It's extremely cute of you to showcase the stories that Krishna ji narrated which were very few as most of the listener relate better with story telling. 🌷😌

This Upanishad is the Kathopanishad (= Katha + Upanishad). The story mentions the father (Vaajashravas) tells the son (Nachiketas) in anger "I will give you away to death". In reality there is no anger here because it is only the plain truth that when you gave birth to your child, you have written her death sentence by her simple fact of taking birth. Anything that is born will die and only that which is born can die. The most evocative imagery of Bhagavad Gita, Arjuna and Krishna in the chariot has basis on a verse from Kathopanishad. It says - the objects of the stimulus is the world, the chariot is your body, the horses are sense organs, the reins are the perceptive mind, the chariot driver is the cognitive intellect, and the chariot owner is the atma / witness / consciousness. The horses or senses tend to wander in all directions but are controlled by the chariot driver the discerning intellect by means of the reins the perceiving mind. This is a highly comprehensive view of the process of karma or action in Hindu thought. If you look at one of the theories of stimulus - motor response in modern psychology, it follows an exact identical path. It says the stimuli is received by the sense organs, processed for perception by mind, processed for cognition by intellect for giving meaning to the message and required action required and orders motor response. What is missing here from the Upanishad view is the chariot owner. The modern view does not have a view on for whom the drama plays out. Upanishad presents a witness in the atma, which is not only the witness, but the illuminer of the drama.

The story is from katopanishad.the boy was Nachiketa and his father offered him to the god of death,Yama,in Hindu mythology.

this is from the ultimate Upanishad the kathopanishad the question answer between the loard of death yama and nachiketa the boy. i am big supporter for this upnishad from depth of my hearth.

If we can't give our things a way; then we should give it away...

you healed me jiddu

Huge Respect to this Marvelous man.

K exposed the ‘guru’ industry beyond question, therefore ‘gurus’ have tried desperately to discredit him ever since, completely misrepresenting him in the process, they make a very nice living from their adoring followers and will attack anyone who shines a light on this

Love you K sir.❤ Thank you for everything 🙏

'Anything to divert us, move away from ourselves!' People love stories!

Very rare .. he uses stories...........Pure Intellect

Living Upanishad JK✨

Thank you sir 🙏for the spiritual guidance. Thank you for the short videos and the words appearing below.

At last he talks about Upanishads

haha, great punchline- "That is the story. Sorry it peters out." You don't even know it's a joke until the end. Really old guys pull those jokes off the best.

Nachiketa ji my inspiration to find out what is going on and why. Listened first in 2008 when I was in 8th standard. Nachiketa ji questions always inspired me to ask n ask to know. Seeking of knowing.

K seldom acknowledges or speaks of Vedas , Upanishads or Indian mythology. This is a rare occurrence.

Beautiful.. Thank you 🙏❤️🌹

Love from pakistan...❤

How many beings got the truth by implementing his words...

That's Powerful!

3rd train shows how aware he is at the moment

Death of dear one really heartbreaking

You understand ...Do it....Not able to do my lord...

Once I completely understood what how he see the truth, i cant understand any other spiritual teacher etc. this one alone is enough to represent the whole

Gratitude! 🙏🏻🙏🏻

"can I give away anything that I hold dear?" That is a taff one 😔

Thanks

This is the story of Nachiketa from the Kathopanishad.

i have so many questions to ask such human kind like you

This story is from Katha upanishad between Yamraj and a boy called Nachiketa. Krishanmurti talks are from Vedanta & Upanishads, but he delivered the talks in his own unique way 😇

Thank you.❤

🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

If we really understand that ultimately the direction is moving towards death, then why all this effort to let go of everything when it will happen by itself?

Story of Nachiketa and Yamraj

What he is pointing out by this story??

One of the most worthy videos on internet....❤️❤️❤️❤️

🙏🙏🙏

Nobody in the end asks what is Truth or what is death? Except to be mesmerized by logic Jiddu gives about Upanishads or Upanishads themselves give... First Guru says, there is no Death and after many lives u reach HIGHEST PRINCIPLE and Ego is ok with that answer... 2nd Guru says, there is nothing after Death. Only annihilation (or Nihilism according to western philosophers like Nietzsche etc) which we equated to Salvation and the Ego is ok with that answer too... When Death (Yama) himself says I will give u a boon - women, palaces or anything u want i will give u all those, then the boy says whatever material i may have, still in the end i have to meet u (Death). And Death was impressed by the purer seeking of Truth without material seeking... But it doesnt say what is Truth or how to seek it and whats the work to do after final birth in body is taken or after Truth is understood...(Except only a hint given in BHAGAWADGEETA what one has to do then and how many in a Million achieve it)

WOW! Thank you 🧡

Thanks JK

correct death is only the fear of losing ones Possessions life and death are happening all the time

Kath upanishad😊❤

Love the speaker

🎉

Nachiketa

K...... ❤️

2:33 What's happening here? What is he saying?

Blessed ppl witnessed him live...🙏🙏🙏

🧠

I didn't capture it. What is meant by death is absent

Why is it incomplete. Pl upload the full talk

Request you to please upload the complete video.🙏

Krishnamurti had only one mental disorder that he did not have much respect for Indian philosophy or any other philosophy other than himself, he felt that my observation and investigation is right and appropriate and only I have the power to think unconditionally, and this one bias made him from extraordinary to ordinary. ( I'm fond of Krishnamurti and I'm very deeply follow his teachings, but I came to know this one thing by his teaching method of observation)

When he speaks about upanishads don't take that lightly...you must be serious. that must be an important one..
