One must realize "there is only Me" (wordlessly), before "there is no me" makes the slightest bit of sense.

-tim-

 

This is crucial. Very few people know that they are. Allow me to divagate...

This is one point I think is VERY difficult for Krishnamurti readers. K never talks about the "I am". He goes straight to the "no-me-at-all". What happens is that some folks understand quite clearly the absense of the entity but there is an imense difficulty when it comes to the next step: the ground. There is a tendency to either not get it at all or to project some objective ground - wich is almost the same. Without first being aware of the "I am all" seems almost impossible to realize the other "beyond".

 

To me it was the other way around. I knew I was since a child and one day I found a book of K somwhere and the guy kept saying that there was no such thing as the "I". I felt that he knew something...so I kept reading him...trying to figure out how could such an itelligent clear sighted man deny the existence of the most obvious!! Then I understood. But in k circles this lack of "being" is a real barrier for without it everything is just theory.

 

I know this is just another tale....
