This is from a statement from J. Krishnamurthi made in 1929. The two thinkers who have helped me the most in my spiritual quest and "growth" are Swami Vivekananda and J. Krishnamurthi. They truly have said things fearlessly and with an objective understanding. In most situations Learning and Spiritual Quests become structured - where the teacher or the Guru "RULES" and "DIRECTS" a pupil's thought. There is nothing for a student to explore on his/her own. Codes of conduct, Morals, Laws are given to all.. failing to follow which is blasphemous and derogatory. But can anything be ever LEARNT by structured thought? IS Exploration predictable? Is learning anything more than exploration?
