LET UNDERSTANDING BE THE LAW

10. You say that God is only in us, there is no other God. Will you kindly explain this important saying a little more, as the whole world believes in a God outside ourselves, a Creator of all, and you yourself speak of the Beloved, the Guru -the name is of no importance- others speak of Buddha, Christ, God. How can you reconcile these statements?

KRISHNAMURTI: Unite with life and you will unite with everything. As is stated in this question, names are of no importance. If you are in love with life, then you will unite with life, whether you call it Buddha, Christ, or any other name. How can you unite with life? Not by creating complications, but by creating that burning desire for Truth which destroys all complications. And you say: How am I to be in love with life? Gather experience. How am I to gather experience? Invite it. How am I to invite it? Do not seclude yourself from life. You see around you sorrow and suffering without end and if you only see without observation, then there is no quickening of the heart or purifying of the mind.
