Questions and Answers
Introduction by J. Krishnamurti
7. You have said to us ‘You are the world and you are totally responsible for the whole of mankind.’ How can this idea be justified on a rational, objective, sane basis?
8. What is psychological time, and why is it a source of conflict?
9. If two people have a relationship of conflict and pain, can they resolve it or must the relationship end? And to have a good relationship, isn’t it necessary for both to change?
10. Would you please go into what you mean by reading the book of your life at a glance or with a single look?
11. You said it is necessary to have no opinions about anything, but I feel it is necessary. Mustn’t one say something about what is taking place, or perhaps do something?
12. After listening to you and thinking about these matters on my own, how am I to really not just solve my problems but radically bring about a change in my life?
13. How do you know what you are saying is true?
