J. Krishnamurti Online

I seek because I am dissatisfied or confused. Out of my confusion, misery, endless agony and suffering, I am seeking something already established, because I have projected what I want. It is a movement of escape from ‘what is’. This movement from ‘what is’ to ‘what should be’, this movement of seeking, is essentially static, not a movement at all. We are caught in this, going from one trap to another, one teacher to another, one book, one system, one philosophy, the analysts, and this movement we call seeking, but you haven’t moved at all. You are where you were; only you deceive yourself by thinking that this movement of so-called seeking gives a certain vitality, a certain movement from ‘what is’ to what you want to discover, which is already fixed. What has movement is ‘what is’ - you don’t have to seek.
