krishnamurti sorrow law

w/o the movement of thought then you have all that energy to comprehend the thing that you call sorrow

when you have an insight into sorrow and remain w that thing completely, .. out of that comes this strange flame of passion..out of passion comes compassion.. compassion means passion for all things, for all human beings.. 

so there is an ending to sorrow and only then you will begin to understand what it means to love..

when there is an ending of sorrow in yourself as a human being, then out of that comes wisdom

from Krishnamurti‘s total freedom:

263

if you don’t escape, that is, if there is no rationalizing/avoiding/justifying/.. just remaining w that totality of suffering.. w/o the movement of thought then you have all that energy to comprehend the thing that you call sorrow

if you remain w/o a single movement of thought, w that which you have called sorrow, there comes a transformation.. that becomes passion (sorrow is root meaning of passion).. when you escape from it.. you lose that ..sorrow/passion.. when you have an insight into sorrow and remain w that thing completely, .. out of that comes this strange flame of passion.. and you must have passion, otherwise you can’t create anything..

out of passion comes compassion.. compassion means passion for all things, for all human beings..  so there is an ending to sorrow and only then you will begin to understand what it means to love..

if you have an insight into all that, you have ht intelligence that transforms you mechanistic activity into something totally nonmechanistic.. .. thinking about it is just a waste of time.. when you are sharing something, you are sharing it now..

264

compassion is the highest form of intelligence.. when you have compassion and  therefore, intelligence, you will do the right thing at the right moment.

eudaimoniative surplus

272

and to come upon that (something not touched by thought) is not only part of meditation , but the ending of sorrow, which is the beginning of wisdom.. so wisdom is not learning from books or going to a school. when there is an ending of sorrow in yourself as a human being, then out of that comes wisdom
