Each fortnightly episode of the Krishnamurti podcast is based on a significant theme of the spiritual teacher and philosopher’s talks. Extracts from the archives have been selected to represent Krishnamurti’s different approaches to these universal and timelessly relevant themes. Upcoming topics are Emptying Consciousness, Thinking, and The False.
