Living Without Images -- Saanen, 4th Public Talk - 19th July, 1981 -- From the early 1920s till 1986 Krishnamurti traveled around the world till the age 91 giving talks, writing and holding discussion. His teachings were not based on book-knowledge and scholarship but on his insight into the human condition and his vision of the sacred. He did not expound any philosophy, but rather talked of the things that concern all of us in our everyday life: the problems of living in modern society with its corruption and violence, the individual's search for security and happiness and the need for man to free himself from this inner burden of violence, fear and sorrow. Although he is recognized both in the East and the West as one of the greatest religious teachers, Krishnamurti himself belonged to no religion, sect or country, nor did he subscribe to any school, political or ideological thought. On the contrary, he maintained that these are the very factors that divide man from man and bring about conflict and war. He emphasized time and again that we are first and foremost human beings and each one of us is like the rest of humanity and not different. He pointed to the importance of bringing to our daily life a deeply meditative and religious quality. Only such a radical change, can bring about a new mind, a new civilization. Thus his teachings transcend all man-made boundaries of religious beliefs, nationalistic sentiment, and sectarian outlook. At the same time, they give a new meaning and direction to modern man's quest for truth, for the sacred. His teachings, besides being relevant to the modern age, are timeless and universal.
