(写于1980年10月21日)
克里希那穆提教导的核心,包含在他1929年表述的命题中:“真理是无路之国。”人不可能通过任何组织、任何信仰、任何教义,牧师或仪式、任何哲学知识或者心理技巧,来达到它。他需要通过关系的镜子,通过理解他自己心灵的内容,通过观察而不是理智的分析或者内省式的剖析,来找到它。人为自己建立了各种形象,以充当安全的围墙-宗教的,政治的,个人的。它们以符号、思想、信仰的形式出现。这些形象的包袱,支配着人的思想,他的关系,以及他的日常生活。这些形象是我们问题的源泉,因为它们把人与人分割开来。他对生活的感知被他头脑中已经确立的概念所左右。他意识的内容就是他全部的存在。这个内容是整个人类共有的。个性只是名与形,以及他从传统与环境中所获得的表面的文化。人的独特性不在于表面,而在于从意识的内容中完全解放出来,而这些内容是整个人类共有的。所以他不是一个个人。
自由不是反应,自由不是选择。人自欺地认为,因为他有选择,所以他是自由的。自由是纯粹的观察,没有方向,没有对回报与惩罚的恐惧。自由是没有动机的,自由不是在人的进化的结尾,而是在他存在的第一步。在观察中你开始发现自由的缺乏。自由是我们对日常生活的无选择觉知中找到的。
思想是时间。思想产生于经验和知识,而经验和知识是与时间和过去分不开的。时间是人类的心理敌人。我们的行动是基于知识,从而是基于时间的,所以人总是过去的奴隶。思想永远是局限的,所以我们生活在无休止的冲突与挣扎中。心理的进化是不存在的。
当人开始觉知到自己思想的运动时,他会看到思想者与思想、观察者与被观察者、经验者与经验之间的分裂。他会发现这个分裂是一个幻觉。只有此时,才有纯粹的观察,它是没有任何过去及时间阴影的洞见。这个超越时间的洞见,带来一种深刻的,根本的心灵突变。
完全的否定是肯定的精髓。在否定了所有那些思想所带来的心理上的东西时,只有在此时,才有爱,也就是慈悲与智慧。
译者注:有人让克里希那穆提用简单的一句话,总结他教导的核心。结果他写出了上面这几段话,作为答复。
The Core of Krishnamurti's Teachings
(written by him 21 Oct 80)
The core of Krishnamurti's teaching is contained in the statement he made in 1929 when he said: "Truth is a pathless land." Man cannot come to it through any organization, through any creed, through any dogma, priest or ritual, not through any philosophic knowledge or psychological technique. He has to find it through the mirror of relationship, through the understanding of the contents of his own mind, through observation and not through intellectual analysis or introspective dissection. Man has built in himself images as a fence of security -- religious, political, personal. These manifest as symbols, ideas, beliefs. The burden of these images dominates man's thinking, his relationships and his daily life. These images are the causes of our problems for they divide man from man. His perception of life is shaped by the concepts already established in his mind. The content of his consciousness is his entire existence. This content is common to all humanity. The individuality is the name, the form and superficial culture he acquires from tradition and environment. The uniqueness of man does not lie in the superficial but in complete freedom from the content of his consciousness, which is common to all mankind. So he is not an individual.
Freedom is not a reaction; freedom is not choice. It is man's pretense that because he has choice he is free. Freedom is pure observation without direction, without fear of punishment and reward. Freedom is without motive; freedom is not at the end of the evolution of man but lies in the first step of his existence. In observation one begins to discover the lack of freedom. Freedom is found in the choiceless awareness of our daily existence and activity.
Thought is time. Thought is born of experience and knowledge which are inseparable from time and the past. Time is the psychological enemy of man. Our action is based on knowledge and therefore time, so man is always a slave to the past. Thought is ever-limited and so we live in constant conflict and struggle. There is no psychological evolution.
When man becomes aware of the movement of his own thoughts he will see the division between the thinker and the thought, the observer and the observed, the experiencer and the experience. He will discover that this division is an illusion. Then only is there pure observation which is insight without any shadow of the past or of time. This timeless insight brings about a deep radical mutation in the mind.
Total negation is the essence of the positive. When there is negation of all those things that thought has brought about psychologically, only then is there love, which is compassion and intelligence.

《金刚经说什么》南怀瑾著
总结论
现在给大家再作一个总结,把金刚经的重点重复说一遍,希望大家注意!......重点在善护念,由凡夫到成道之路,圣人与凡夫同一个修持的方法,善护念, 要善于护念。怎么护念?应无所住,不生法相,如如不动,不取于相,就是内心平静的 这一念。
......人毕竟要自度,一切众生皆要自度,所以涅盘无法。 晓得涅盘无法,那叫我怎么修行呢?善护念。不要忘记了,真正善护念,不住于相, 就到达涅盘,此外别无他法。
第五品如理实见是见如来;怎么见呢?佛告诉大家,不要有一个身相,学佛最困难 的就是离不开身相这个肉体,所有的功夫都在肉体上转,都是著相。所以说凡所有相, 皆是虚妄,若见诸相非相,即见如来。首先要去身相,身相不去,就是我相不去;我相 不去,有我就有你,有他就有人,人相不能去;人相不能去,寿者相不能去,众生相不 能去
......
身相去掉,然后再去心相。有心相就有法相(一切法无我),观念一搞不清 楚,不管你打坐也好,做其他功夫也好,统统在心相上造一个法相,大家都在那里欺骗 自己,以为在修道,做功夫,其实自己只不过都在心中制造意识法相而已!
......
告诉我们真正的佛法,要能够去掉身相心相,不生法相, 自己心里不制造出来一个法相,不造妖捏怪......得道,得个什么?无所得!最难就是无所得,一切 无所得,不住法相。
......
人生修道,证道,为什么不 能成佛?因为首先身见去不掉,总觉得有我,有这个身体,把身体看得很牢。去身见, 去世间之见,把物质世界,空间的观念,身体,佛土观念,统统去掉。连西方极乐阿弥 陀佛国土,东方药师如来国土,以及世间法构成的世间国土观念,统统去掉。换句话说, 把所有时空的观念,身心的观念,统统放下,要这样来修持才行。
......
你要从自己心理上检 查,过去心不可得,现在心不可得,未来心不可得,不可得的也不可得,是名不可得, 不可得就是不可得! 过去的已经过去,未来的还没有来,我们刚说现在心,我们心里想现在,已经没有 了,过去了,如梦如幻;所以说,我们众生的烦恼,就是因为三心认不清楚。三心两意 的......所以真正的佛法最现实,只有现在,现实,现在心不可得,心安理得,此心清净的 很,这就是佛法
......
青年同学注意!我一听到你们年轻人学佛,我头就大了,先学做人,能把儒家四书 五经做人之理通达了,成功了,学佛一定成功。像盖房子一样,先把基础打好。人都没 有做好,你要学佛,你成了佛,我成什么?要注意啊!要先学做人,人成了,就是成佛。 佛法告诉你的就是这个道理,我所说的,可没有违背金刚经任何要点。
......
空是一个境界,一个作用
......
佛说没有度人;度 尽一切众生,他说没有一个众生是他度的,自性自度,个个都是佛,只要你平实的去做。
......
