Your mind never observes the tree - JKOnline Daily Quotes

Your mind never observes the tree Posted: To understand, there must be discipline. Please follow this a little bit; give your attention. Understanding is not the outcome of the intellect, or of emotion, of sentiment. As we said, understanding comes when the mind is really very, very quiet, has no movement at all in any direction. When you observe a tree - if you have ever done it - when you look at a tree, your mind never observes the tree; it observes the image it has created about a tree, and that image is always moving: it is never quiet. It is being added to and taken away from. It is only when the mind is very quiet, really observant, without any movement, that it observes the actual fact of the tree. - Talks by Krishnamurti In U.S.A. 1966
