Time Is a Poison - JKOnline Daily Quotes |
| Posted: In your bathroom you have a bottle marked 'poison', and you know it is poison; you are very careful of that bottle, even in the dark. You are always watching out for it. You don't say, 'How am I to keep away, how am I to be watchful of that bottle? You know it is poison, so you are tremendously attentive to it. Time is a poison; it creates disorder. If this is a fact to you, then you can proceed into the understanding of how to be free of fear immediately. But if you are still holding time as a means of freeing yourself, there is no communication between you and me.You see, there is something much more; there may be a totally different kind of time altogether. We only know two times, physical and psychological, and we are caught in time. Physical time plays an important part in the psyche, and the psyche has an important influence on the physical. We are caught in this battle, in this influence. One must accept physical time in order to catch the bus or the train, but if one rejects psychological time completely, then one may come to a time that is something quite different, a time that is not related to either. I wish you would come on with me into that time! Then time is not disorder; it is tremendous order. - J. Krishnamurti, The Book of Life |
