Quote by Jiddu Krishnamurti

“The demand to be safe in relationship inevitably breeds sorrow and fear. This seeking for security is inviting insecurity. Have you ever found security in any of your relationships? Have you? Most of us want the security of loving and being loved, but is there love when each one of us is seeking his own security, his own particular path? We are not loved because we don't know how to love.”

“If these were times when the psychic was not looked upon as something surrounded with an unsientific aura - that is to say, a subject about which nothing raitonally concrete can be stated and hence one to be treated with smiles and gentle waggings of the head - my task would be a much easier one. But the harshness of our materialistic age is such that I suppose we cannot be blamed at that which does not conform with the physical laws that drive us on day after day in our blind, itching urge for survival. What can we prove about ghosts and ectoplasm and all the rest of it!”
