On Love and Loneliness
3,16 €
In 1950 Krishnamurti said: “It is only when the mind is not escaping in any form that it is possible to be in direct communion with that thing we call loneliness, the alone, and to have communion with that thing, there must be affection, there must be love.”
On Love and Loneliness is a compelling investigation of our intimate relationships with ourselves, others, and society. Krishnamurti suggests that a “true relationship” can come into being only when there is self-knowledge of the conditions that divide and isolate individuals and groups. Only by renouncing the self can we understand the problem of loneliness, and truly love.
