verbally but deeply, profoundly as something terribly real, not as something
romantic, emotional but something that is actual in our daily life, then what is our responsibility
to the wholeness of mankind? Put
yourself this question. One feels responsible for one's children, wife,
husband, girl, boy whatever it is, because you are intimately connected with
them. You have to bring them up, education and so on, earn a livelihood, feel a
certain amount of security, so you gradually restrict the wholeness of life into a small narrow little groove. And having such mentality
one is disinclined or repulses, puts aside the responsibility to the whole of
mankind, not only mankind but to the earth on which we all live. We are
responsible for all that, ecologically, economically, spiritually. But if we
cling to our little images, however reassuring, comforting, satisfying, then we
bring about a great fragmentation in our life and that prevents all of us from
seeing the totality of mankind." - J. Krishnamurti Is human life
fragmented, separated into billions of individuals, each living his own
separate private life? Or is life one movement as a whole? We may differ
physically, e.g. we may have different colours, bodies, languages, cultures,
but psychologically are we different? Is each one of us an isolated separate individual
or are we always related to everything around us? Is this relationship
fragmentary or does it have altogether a different significance as a whole? What
is the wholeness of life? How does one realise it in one's daily life? What
effect this realisation has on one's day-to-day life? All such questions will
be taken up for exploration in this workshop. Understanding one's individual
life as a part of the totality of human life will be the main focus of this
workshop. The enquiry will be based on J. Krishnamurti's teachings. Participation: Interested persons can participate as resident or as day-participants.
