On Krishnamurti : You Do Not Know The Problem!

“It is the incapacity to understand a challenge that brings about a problem”, this is what Krishnamurti says.

And habituated we are of concluding, we are very habituated to conclude; we immediately take this sentence as a call for action. As if he is urging us, pushing us, immediately to do something. That’s what you too did. You said, “So this statement is saying, you first develop that capacity.” You go ahead and develop a capacity.

No, that is not what Krishnamurti is principally saying.

We all face problems, and whenever we face problems, to every problem, we are fond of attributing a reason. Right? To every problem, we attribute a reason.

What are the kinds of reasons, we associate normally with our problems?

The other person is not understanding.

Your medical reports just came and it shows that your heart is not in good shape. Problem.

Now what reason do you associate with it?

I am in a horrid schedule, tied to it, and it is my schedule, that is the cause of this problem.

You are working somewhere and there the appraisal reports are not quite fine, that scares you. Problem.
