I came across Krishnamurti's teachings about two years ago and I became so intensely interested in them, since then I started reading and studying his books and talks and thinking and pondering on them almost every day, it has caused me a great deal of change in my way of thinking but still I feel so far from that state of "vast emptyness".
So I joined this site in the hope of seeking some help on this way.
Jean Cristoph by roman rolland, Sidartha by Herman Hesse, the Oldman and the Sea by Hemingway.
Forrest Gump starring Tom Hanks, The Eternal Sunshine of a Spotless Mind starring Jim Carry, The Beautiful mind starring Rossel Crue, Shine (life of David Hoffman).
Beethoven symphonies and piano sonatas, Dvorak symphony "from the new world", Debussy's Sea,Tchaikovsky's fifth symphony, the works of Aziza Mustafazadeh.
ofcourse these teachings are not like some academic lessons that you first study and acquire knowledge and then use them in some fields, you have to try to understand the teachings deeply as you read them.

View all answers to this questionindeed it had! it had a great effect on the way of thinking, way of lookoing at things, way of sencing and thus on the way of living.
I can say the most important effect was on the relationships actually, because relationships are what the life is based on.
It may be affective, but also it may create some kind of dogma or belief or organized thinking.
but once one has underestanded the teachings it is ones duty to get people to be interested in themselves rather than in Krishnamurti.
I think there is no subtlety in Krishnamurties teachings, every thing is clear to the end, but group dialogue is necessary for one to inquire into oneself, it is a chance to observe yourself.

View all answers to this questionOfcourse it is, by being interested in yourself not in Krishnamurti nor in the teachings.
View all answers to this questionby simply observing, these matters of doubt or "positive disposition" are considerable just when you are trying to accept something, when there is no effort for acceptance but only for underestanding then none of these, matter anymore.
