The Nature of the New Mind

In this book Krishnamurti focuses on a radical mutation in human consciousness as a whole He points out that the present crisis is not just what is perceived outwardly in society; it really lies in the unconscious, deep within oneself. Thus what is required is not more knowledge or further collective action but a totally new mind completely free of all its old patterns that would enable it to develop the qualities of stillness, love and compassion.
