EXPLORATION: What Does It Mean to Live the Teaching? | David Moody

Krishnamurti Center, Ojai, CA Season 4 Episode 53

Welcome back to The Immeasurable Podcast. This episode features a talk from the 2025 KFA Annual May Gathering.

It’s titled “What Does It Mean to Live the Teaching?” and is presented by David Moody.

In his last recorded statement, just days before his death, Krishnamurti spoke of the “immense energy and intelligence” that had flowed through him for seventy years — and said that others might experience it too, if they live the teachings. But, he added, no one had done so.

In this talk, David explores what it means to live the teachings, drawing from Krishnamurti’s words over many years, and reflecting on how we might approach this question ourselves.

A Q&A session with the audience followed this presentation. We’ll share that conversation in the next episode.

And now, here’s David Moody.

  • Psychological conflict (27:22)

  • A seemingly impossible task (40:00)
  • Choiceless awareness and its difficulties (47:50)
  • Living the teachings as a radical undertaking (53:00)
