KRISHNAMURTI,ITALY 1ST PUBLIC TALK 1933

"To put it differently, action must become truly individual. Now I am not
using that word "individual" in the sense of placing the individual against
the many. By individual action I mean action that is born of complete
comprehension, complete understanding by the individual, understanding not
imposed by others. Where that understanding exists, there is true
individuality, true aloneness - not the aloneness of escape into solitude,
but the aloneness that is born of the full comprehension of the experiences
of life. For the completeness of action, mind must be free of this idea of
time as yesterday, today, and tomorrow. If mind is not liberated from that
division, then conflict arises and leads to suffering and to the search for
escapes from that suffering.
I say that there is a living reality, an immortality, an eternity that
cannot be described; it can be understood only in the fullness of your own
individual action, not as a part of a structure, not as a part of a social,
political, or religious machine. Therefore you must experience true
individuality before you can understand what is true. As long as you do not
act from that eternal source, there must be conflict; there must be division
and continual strife"
