((( Conversation btw J. Krishnamurti and Swami Venkatesananda ))))

 

Krishnaji:.......... " Whom would you consider as a mature, ripe man? "

 

Swamiji: " The man who is able to observe. "

 

Krishhnaji: Wait. Obviously the man who goes to churches, to temples,

to mosques is out; so is the intellectual, the religious and the

emotional. We should say, if we eliminate all that, maturity consists

in being not self-centred - not " me " first everybody else second, or

my emotions first. So maturity implies the absence of the " me " .
