    I stay in one of the hostels in the University where I'm currently doing my PhD. I generally like to eat alone, by myself but I have a few friends who prefer to have their meals with others. I generally have trouble understanding this but I respect their need. In any case, recently, when I was having lunch in the mess, I was trying to understand why sometimes people feel lonely while eating by themselves. I realised that it is simply because one is looking at oneself as if from the outside. One looks oneself as if from another's eyes and judges oneself to be alone and therefore lonely. One is not lonely per say but becomes lonely by this judgement on oneself, by oneself, as if oneself was another. When I thought of that, when I gazed at myself as if someone else was gazing at me, I to felt lonely. The only way to not feel lonely was to simply be there and eat, without judging myself. It was a small moment but made me understand how the feeling of loneliness works. One splits from oneself and judges oneself as lonely. It is a sad feeling that comes from judging oneself as if another.

      @@keront8458 What you feel as 'self' is nothing but thoughts and memories (images). Lets take an example of seeing a tree. Now you see a tree and you got the image of a tree and at that moment you are nothing but a tree, provided that no other memories were playing and messing with that image of the tree. Thats what is mean by observer is the observed. You are nothing but a tree, at that moment. There is no thinker but a thought. What you feel as yourself is actually you are feeling a tree. Now we have images of all the whole world, therefore whenever we feel is a self, we are actually feeling the world. Krishnamurti says, "you are the world". We think, we are subject observing an object (outside world) but outside worlds is actually painting on the canvas of our brain.

      @@manikkhanna2259 we always tend to run away towards the opposites for example if we are being violent we try to become non violent angry we don't face anger we tend to think I must not be angry and So on.... Jk is saying that the observer is the observed that is what you call I and angry or I and alone are not two different things you are anger itself and nothing else... Observer is what it is observing and nothing else.... Means observer can't exist without observing and that which it is observing, it becomes ... So do not run away from what is to its other end it will only cause conflict and makes one blind towards the fact but just give your attention to the fact completely and attention is a flame which burns everything. The point is do not think that you exist without relating or observing and if you think that you are something without relating anything worldly I mean anything outside you it could be physical or not so then think twice it means that if I ask you who you are what your answer would be without any relation...... Example I am my name my degree my relations my achievement... Or qualities.... I hope its helpful....

    Finally!! We're not the body and the labels we assign to ourselves and the society. We're a system in itself which is in continuous flux. It fragments itself and creates the ego, society and multiple labels out of itself and gets trapped in its self perpetuated illusion. It is the same system that becomes the observer and observes itself, thus creating conflict. There is only this one thing, not two. There is only the observation and not the observed. Once this fact is realised, the conflict ends.
    I had boycotted every religious dogma, but as I came to see the truth of this fact after a long time, the meaning of Mandukya Upanishad hit me hard in the face. This is where Hinduism and Buddhism meet. This is what Advaita Vedanta says, Thou Art That (The observer is the observed).
    I'm all the things of this world, it's happiness and sadness, pleasure and pain. The other people are not different from me.

      @@Honest_review85 I've been studying and researching this deeply. Consider we have four bodies, the physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual bodies.
      The mental body is the thinking mind, the imaginative space, and we all share this space. The first Hermetic principle states that all is mental, all is mind, everything you see, think, do, feel is occurring in the mental space of 'God', a creative force.
      Yet this is not the observer. The observer has the ability to witness the mind thinking. The observer witnesses the physical body moving and engaging, the observer witnesses emotional reactions. None of this is happening TO the observer, but in front of the observer.
      Attention is of the spiritual body, therefore I believe you're correct. When we are in a state of attention, 'paying' attention, we are rarely thinking or feeling or even moving. If we are it's instinctual, it isn't efforted. Because I don't see that the observer has much control over these other three bodies, yet I will give that some thought.

      Krishnamurti was telling the pure truth. Exactly Word to word, nothing symbolic, have no doubts about it, he is trying to make it as simple as possible to understand. But the problem is, before you felt it you won’t understand it. It is as natural as anything else in the world, but more rare to experience. Total awareness dissolves all conflict there is inside of us, it dissolves absolutely everything of that nature. If you reach the state he is talking about when feeling lonely, i promise you, it simply just dissappears without any thought of it. It just goes away

    I sufferered greatly over my moms passing, and i did feel lonely. When I seen that my body was suffering and watched it as I cried for the 100th time, it passed, i did not fight or supress... It was almost as if I had compassion for myself, nothing that no one else could give me... That was a month ago, and I had hadn't known this is what he was talking about till I in the past week started to do this with a lot of other feelings with my other losses and shame and guilt... Yesterday I felt i could use this with minute things like being annoyed, frustrated, or whatever feeling I felt in parts of my body, and quickly those go away too and my mind became more clear. I had the best day despite sleeping for 2 hours, I relied on myself to figure things out and the anxiety and complaints about being tired never happened.

    But the moment this journey started inward, trying to know Thyself, all those experiences that turned many into ashes went straight to the garbage.

When that situation is Integrated with our self then it will not exist anymore.

    I can somehow relate this with a phenomenon that happens in my dreams occasionally. In the dream, I am caught in a quagmire of jungles or in some inexplicable haze of doors of large house etc.
    1. When I try to make an effort to get out of the situation then it worsens.
    2. But when I become quiet then the dream ends automatically.
    Let us suppose, if I come out of the dream somehow from the effort as explained in the point (1) above, I will have a continued anxiety to avoid getting into the same dream. On the other hand, if I come out of the dream without any effort as explained in the point (2) above, then I will not the continued anxiety. It is as if it is OK - no fear..

    in simple example
    im afraid of public speech my heart beats faster my legs shakes instead of fighting over it jus accept the heart beat n shake legs n jus do it and then u worry again people will laugh at u that also jus accept it don force it to change its part of being as a human ...if ur have jumpscaare watching a horror movie just shout it its ok... if ur heart races when u see ur crush jus accept what the heart is doing don force it jus accept everything... u will see a awakening a peaceful process....
    watch alan watts achieve the flow video its explains in simple examples about this ..

    Hmm, I'm not sure if I fully understand or agree with this. For example, if I observe a thought in me, the thought is not me. It arises in my mind, lasts for a while, then disappears. If I was the thought, then I would disappear along with it. Therefore I, the observer, cannot be the observed (the thought).
    The observer (me) observes thoughts, so the observer can never be observed. Otherwise you would need another observer to observe it. I can infer my own existence as an observer by thinking "The fact that I observe, means I'm the observer, and even this thought is being observed by me."
    You could say they are inseparable, because thoughts cannot exist without a conscious observer, just like a thought cannot appear in the mind of a dead man. But the observer does not rely on thoughts. Yet thoughts do rely on the observer. Anything observed is just an appearance in the observer, but not the actual observer itself.

      The "me" you're referring to is just an idea. This idea, starts as a thought, as long as you hold that idea of self it will develop into an identity, what the Hindus call "false ego." stripping those layers of ego reveal a oneness with the world around you and the mind becomes crystal clear, no thoughts at all, just observation. Every idea, stems from the first idea of "I am..." So you say I am this, and I am not this, developing duality and perceiving differences. I am lonely disappears, because "I" disappears.

    • @silverblaize
      @silverblaize 4 года назад +8

      ​@@ericpazzaglia6905 When I say "me" I am referring to pure consciousness. The Hindus have an example in the Upanishads of two birds sitting in a tree. One symbolizes the ego, and he chases madly after the fruits of the tree. While the second bird symbolizes Atman, pure consciousness. He is the observer that does not intervene, but simply watches. The silent witness.
      So yes I agree with you that when we think of ourselves as an everyday human being, this ego identification is actually non different from the thoughts that appear. And in this case, Krishnamurti is correct in that the observer is the observed. But we are NOT the ego-thought. We are the silent witness, Atman. This observer is never the observed. Yes, ultimately all is one. But the "observed" in this case, thoughts, or ego, are like a non existing mirage. Unreal. While the witness alone is real. The real can never be or become the unreal.

      There is no “I”. The “Me” is an illusion projected by thought. Actually, there are only thoughts, fostered by the illusion of the thinker. Without a thinker, is there a thought at all? So, in the video example, when “the me” realizes it is the same as loneliness, so every move it makes, trying to change, suppress, escape, are still in the field of thought that will increase the loneliness thought constelation even more, adding more confusion. So the only thing that remains is to do nothing, to remain with that thing, and when you remain with it, the thought stops feeding its growth. Then it loses power, and disappear. You saying that you are “Atman” is just another idea, that even if it was true, the very saying of it turns it into a false statement. If you are pure consciousness, “you (the me)” is not even there to notice and remember. Cheers

      Consciousness is content. This content is just an idea. The observer is what is observed when thinking interferes (when recording takes place), somewhat fragmented. The brain deals with this energy, but the brain does not know what it actually is, it is conditioned and moves between comfortable and uncomfortable. In reality we are empty, there is only the body and the awareness. So there is only seeing without an observer when you know the truth of it. I hope someone understands it.

    Do I accept it intellectually: that I am the observer?
    Yes and no. I feel life has little to no meaning other than what we give it. But when I say 'we', it's vastly a redundant statement as my subjective existence is that we (I) exist in a fundamentally useless simulation of sorts. Even the very fact that I'm writing this and that 'someone' may respond, is for me a farce and perhaps a form of satire on behalf of the creator/creators of my apparent conscious existence.
    This has been an ever growing thought I've had since I was a child. Perhaps reality is authentic and I'm neurologically damaged and/or just a biological byproduct of anxiety, depression combined with existential nihilism and even absurdity. Either way, it doesn't seemingly alter anything regardless of meditation, exercise healthy eating and looking at things objectively and indefatigably. The final outcome remains a paradoxically same difference regardless.

First thought creates the ideas and then worries about them / ponders about them as if they were not its own creations, as if they were true. Could it be that the futility you feel is actually just the futility of that kind of thinking? Thought creates ideas about the world and then tries to make sense of those ideas and it cannot be done- because they are just ideas, not truth. They are separated from the facts of life. Do you see that?

      If the Observer is the observed then there is no longer an observer. So, if there is Love, there is just Love, if there is loneliness, there is just loneliness. They are being experienced as they are with out comparing it or trying to escape from it. When you have a separate observer, that separate observer compares these experiences with other ones. If it is loneliness, it wants to escape it for something else. But, if there is no observer and there is only the experience, then the experience can be free to rise and fall without judgement. He says that Loneliness disappears because if there is nothing to judge the experience, the experience becomes neutral and can be experienced fully as it is.

    ---The whole psychological drama begins when one splits from oneself and judges oneself from the perspective of an outsider looking in. But the reality is that there is no outsider looking in. Attention or Awareness itself gives rise to thought; thought then creates division and gives rise to internal conflict and turmoil. One judges oneself from the perspective of an outsider looking in because of the self-image that one carries: how one should act, how one should think, how one should live, how one should carry oneself in society, so forth and so on. In other words, the whole charade is nothing more than psychological drama of the mind.

      You make a good point but also read a comment above by
      priyabrata Dash. I would also like to add that when you think you are a slave to the thoughts, there is still you, the slave and the emotion, so you are not completely out of the picture, the emotion has taken over and there was probably an interval where you actually decided it was the correct thing to do. Like when a person is out of control angry, or out of control fear, or whatever the emotion, probably before that extreme point they thought it was the correct course of action. It happens very quickly so we don't usually notice it. But there is still a separation between you and the emotion even in the worse out of control emotional state. When people regain their control they have simply created more distance more detachment from the emotion and so, feel more stable and in control. That is the usual pendulum swing for most people. Out of control and back to being in control. The question is, is that separation real? Are there really two things? Is there you and the emotion? I am not sure. We have to look closely at this, when all of this is going on.

    PLEASE READ ME IF PASSIONATE ABOUT THIS TOPIC, I'm up for debate obviously as a true lover of Krishna. But I think he's wrong. After long long long consideration and studying of this idea "the observer is the observed". I've reached a conclusion that objects to it. So either there's been a miscommunication through words, I'm trying to communicate the truth or I've miss observed and am communicating a non truth, those are the three options, i think. I say that the observer is not the observed, because it is impossible to observe the observer (maybe Krishna was just trying to provoke us to figure it out for ourselves). Okay let me state my conclusion before explaining, you'll see why. I believe that the truths about my identity can contradict but both be logical and therefore be felt and perceived as the truth. Truth 1 I notice I am an observer, But i cannot find the observer (where these thoughts, ideas and feelings are all happening in the experience which i may percieve or not percieve as me), therefore I shall identify with everything the observer observes (which only exists in the present, even ideas of past and future) because that is the only thing that even is in my experience and therefore can be seen as me. Truth 2 I cannot find the observer and I can also see that everything I observe, i must be separate from in order to observe it and so it is not me. So I truly believe both to be true, just depends on which you choose, which is freedom and can probably both be used practically in different scenarios. however I've just had the thought that i am neither the observer or the observed, but instead, the act of observation itself, which includes that of which i observe. makes even more sense but i'm sure this is just another perception that can be perceived as the truth. I will say that it feels the most truthful though. And i also think that anything we observe as observation causes it to become more separate from us , the more information is picked up from a particular part of what we can observe, the more we become separate to it, which also makes complete sense i think. bit crazier now to but i believe that as the universe, we've caused this so we can to an extent exist, because without an observer, there would be no observed and therefore we would just be the universe without even knowing it or experiencing our self. Which crazily points to the idea why you can't observe the rest of the universe. it's because the observer that you can't find is the rest of the universe and you can't observe it through any means because it is you, In the pure sense that has non of the contradiction required for observation. :o, realising this even if it's not true has made me happy, hope it can do the same for someone else and provoke more realisations and opinions for the better.

  • @chiptowers1
    @chiptowers1 Год назад

    The intellectual question is who is observing who. Where intellect ( dict) is the faculty of reasoning, understanding objectively, especially with abstract matters and abstract exists in thought or as an idea but not having a physical or concrete existence. So to perceive that the observer is the observed would mean that if the observer which is the person, has observed something within the person, that would mean the person has become suddenly aware of something within but not aware of whats being observed of having a physical concrete existence and only having an abstract existence in thought.
    Where as enlightenment is the state of attaining insight of something in which the person has observed that that what is attained from within is not an abstract of thought but an actuall physical form that is observing from within to evolve the very body and brain that the physical source formed initially.
    Krishnamurti had never came to the realisation that what he was observing within, was a physical source that formed the intelligent species and the imprinted knowledge within that physical source was relaying its knowledge to the physical brain.

    Sorry, but I think he has got a logical inconsistency there. He suggests to „look at it“ (the loneliness or fear) and at the same time to not be an observer, as then the conflict is there again. If I can look at something, I am the observer of it. Eckhart Tolle sees it differently and clearly says: You are not the emotion, you are the awareness that perceives it - without judging of course. I suspect Krishnamurti always mixes up thought that judges and thereby creates a conflict with the neutral observer or awareness that watches without judging. But to say „look at it“ and „there is no observer“ just makes no sense to me. „Look AT it“ - the preposition „at“ already indicates that the eyes are at a different position than what is observed, „at it“ means you look into a certain direction. That wouldn‘t be the case if you were „in it“ or simply „it“. The emotion cannot look at itself.

      It’s just a language limitation. I also have a problem with the word “look”, but it means actually to “remain with what is”, “feel what is” with your whole being.
      This requires you to understand that “you” are synonimous to the loneliness, and so, there is nothing to do, act, or change. Non action, to remain, accept is all you got. This is what means “look”
