What are you doing with your life? Can anyone show you the way, or must you be a light to yourself? Do we see the urgency of change? One of the greatest spiritual teachers and philosophers of all time, J. Krishnamurti challenges us to question all that we know and discover our true nature in the here and now. This official podcast from Krishnamurti Foundation Trust now has over 250 episodes. Episodes 1-50 feature conversations between Krishnamurti and luminaries from many paths, along with readings of the classic book Commentaries on Living by actor Terence Stamp. Episode 51 onwards features carefully chosen extracts based on a theme explored by Krishnamurti. The extracts from our archives have been carefully selected to represent his different approaches to each of these universal and timelessly relevant themes. Get in touch at podcast@kfoundation.org.

‘Philosophers intellectually invent or reason out a meaning to life, and we generally accept such meaning because we have no meaning to our own lives.’
This episode on The Meaning of Life has two sections.
The first extract (2:42) is from Krishnamurti’s fourth talk in Saanen 1973, and is titled: Meaning vs. Purpose.
The second and final extract in this episode (32:30) is from the fourth talk at Brockwood Park in 1976, and is titled: Finding Out the Meaning of Life.
Each fortnightly episode of the Krishnamurti podcast is based on a significant theme of the spiritual teacher and philosopher’s talks.

The second part of this is by far the most profound talk by Krishnamurti I have come across. He gives a deep insight to character of methodless awakening to real meditation.
