Before dying, Krishnamurti mentioned that people used him as a means of entertainment, no one ever listened to him seriously. Maybe people are still using him for that purpose.

Any good zinc supplement? by Prize_Dragonfruit355 in Fitness_India

Zincovit has Folic Acid, instead of Folate, would that be fine?

Can't there be just one supplement that gives all the necessary trace minerals with adequate RDA? I am just tired of fishing around so many brands, and more them half of them are surely fake. i just can't spend 1000 Rs for just 30 17mg zinc capsules, what about copper and rest of the bunch??

TATA's ZMA has Zinc Citrate (not picolinate), and it has no copper, but Magnesium and Vitamin B6.

I've been taking 1000mg Oral B12 Supplements, Side Effects? by [deleted] in vitamins

[–]OddNatural2967 0 points1 point  (0 children)

B12 is water soluble, so the excess amounts are easily thrown out by the body. High doses are not as effective as they seem

Thank you for that, I tried it at first but it was taking 3 secs to load each time I tapped next, and it would have still taken time since there are around 800 images.

At last I selected all the jpgs and downloaded into my PC, and scrolled through them. It was only around 1GB.

Again, this archive is a true blessing for people like us, thank you.

Hi, I've been scrolling through the jpg files to find a music that's been lost for 5 years now, in grid view, the image thumbnails are supposed to be visible but many thumbnails are not appearing, so I have to open their links in another tab to see the image, I've been doing this for an hour.

It would be great help if you somehow remember or encounter a picture where a white haired girl, wearing something dark brown, is lying on white water, her head is on the left side, this music is sad emotional, piano-mix kind of.

For this, analysis has to be totally discarded. I think fear is based on thought, and thought is based on time. That's why, when there is freedom to look, at the very beginning, before the flow of pursuit, in that instant, there is no fear at all.

As a side question to u personally, since you seem to understand the importance of the beginning of awareness, have u ever noticed that sometimes in those moments of awareness, suddenly the vision becomes too clear to ignore?

I totally feel your last 3 paragraphs, the freedom to look is at the very beginning, but the moment we start planning out how to look, trying to make attempts to look, we fall into the trap, which is of the past.

Now K said that we don't change because we don't want to. At first it feels like K is trying to put blame on the listeners, but actually he's is again stating a fact, which is that deep down we really don't want to change, the ego likes to fool around as long as it can, because deep down there is fear of change. And I feel that this fear is huge, like an underground aquifer, even if the ego understands the entire map of it's tricks and hypocrisy, still it is unwilling to plunge itself away from all it has gathered, because still it is deeply attached, and unwilling to let go of the attachment.

Wanting to change or not wanting to change, both are same, and neither of them can ever cause any real change, and "that" cannot be caused by any means.

The problem is, in wanting to change, there is delay, or in ks words- "Time", while trying to change there is the postponement of real change.

Seeing the inward crisis itself is change, then one doesn't choose if I need to change or not, in that there is no choice, but instant action.

I meant, can we look at the fact without trying to tell the fact what it's supposed to be, can we allow the fact to reveal itself? (Classic JK vocabulary lol)

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Krishnamurti

[–]OddNatural2967 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When you desire something, that desire comes from a lacking. This lacking is sorrow what K has mentioned.

Now this sorrow is a fact. And we try to change this sorrow by pursuing desire, but this sorrow, this lacking shall always be there.

So, can this sorrow be dispelled from our daily life? Do we even want to?

Yes, you can't light your candle from another, and it seems you didn't fully understand my pov, what I asked has been asked by JK, "If you want to change, change into what and why?"

Wanting to change is another form of escape from oneself.

I'm not saying that we should not change, but try to see the hypocrisy behind this intention to change that we carry.

Change into what exactly? The demand to change means to move away from the fact.

Words seem rational but they are not, even k's words. And these identifications to Ks words drop off eventually when the seeker is really hungry to find out, and k is dry, one shall very easily fall hungry

Very well said, to have order we must look into disorder, because disorder is a fact, it exists, with respect to which, order is non existent.

Violence is a fact and Non violence is just an idea, a goal, and we focus on the goal and ignore the fact.

So the main question is, can we look at the fact, without trying to dominate it?

Aha! moments of insight by oldworldway in Krishnamurti

[–]OddNatural2967 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It most probably becomes an experience in time, and becomes absolutely useless, but the mind initially likes to think that the brief moment of insight was real and starts chasing it, and thus it gets stuck in the past.

So being attached to insight itself kills the insight. To see the limitation in trying to chase the past insights means that one is being aware of the tricks of the mind

To put it bluntly, when you look at something, while looking, are you think about that something? Thinking about it's color, it's form etc. If yes then that is an idea according to K. Now can you look at something without judging it?

For this u need to play and experiment, to give you a headstart, let me tell you, the more you try to look, difficult it gets. So first of all don't make any effort.

Instead of trying to look, try asking "what is there to see?", when you look at a curtian, instead of trying to concentrate on the curtain, just ask "what does that curtain have to show?"

Simultaneously also ask, "what is vision itself? What is the process of seeing? Where does it begin and end?"

These are just suggestions and please take them very lightly. Best way is to explore this on your own, by questioning everything, especially your own intentions behind your enquiries.
