J. Krishnamurti Online

We human beings are conditioned. We repeat what others have told us, we come to a conclusion and from that conclusion work. And that conclusion is based upon our likes and dislikes, prejudices, knowledge, experience, our conditioning. And so we go round and round in a circle, looking for a something which will have meaning. But in that circle, there is no meaning at all as we think there is – it is just walking around in a cage, a trap. So I say, ‘I want to find out. I want to learn if it is possible to break through this trap, this circle.’ I don’t know what lies beyond it. If I say, ‘That lies beyond it,’ then it is a supposition, a theory. I must break through this and then I will know what it is.

From Discussion with Young People 1, Brandeis University, 21 October 1968
