Part of the online workshop "A New Beginning" led by Mukesh Gupta. This talk focused on love as the essential quality without which “the world will go to disaster” (quoting Krishnamurti). The speaker invited a deep questioning about what love is, not intellectually but with one’s whole being. When we meet this profound question with complete attention and listening beyond words and definitions, there is natural stillness and wonder. The talk examined how the ego-mind, born from thought activity, prevents love from flowering through its constant reactivity and sense of separation. Through pure observation and awareness, we can see how psychological separation denies love. The speaker pointed to a state of unconditioned being that emerges when there is a letting go of the illusion of separation. This state is where love, attention and awareness are not separate but are one energy. Presented by the Krishnamurti Educational Centre of Canada
