Dear Cass

My views are:

If you already know that and not only believe it - then I think I understand you.
It is all right. It is your choice.

  No, I am not prepared to read these books to do a comparative study as it would require hours of study which I can make better use of.  However it should be fairly simple for you if you have read both their ideas.

  >Well Morten there is nothing subtle about mastering ourselves. A conscious decision must be made to observe the subtleties of thought, deed and action employed by the lower self or personality. The dross has to be cleared out first - that is the accumulated contents of the psyche. Krishnamurti spent his whole life emphasizing and reemphasizing this and even gave the breakdown on what our insecurities and fears were based on, and repeated ad infinitum that until this is cleared there is no chance of living in the 'now' with those accumulated personality traits. So I would disagree emphatically with you that he did a small effort. Perhaps you have misunderstood him.

  >>But he did not do a strong effort in telling people that such a psychological change - aught not to come about by the use of Subtle Mind Control and the use of conditioning factors - like Guruism and other issues. Well, not as far as I know. But he did a small effort.

  >>Psychological change IMO, is what Krisnamurti explored and opened our eyes too. We must understand why we are jealous, possessive, insecure, etc in order to change our patterns of thinking.
