In this series of talks, Krishnamurti reiterates his basic insight that what is important for a human being is to read the book of his own life, its various chapters and pages, rather than studying any ancient scriptures or modern philosophies. "The whole story of mankind is in you—the vast experiences, the deep-rooted fears, anxieties, sorrow, pleasure, and all the beliefs that man has accumulated throughout millennia. You are that book, and it is an art to read that book." So says Krishnamurti in this series of talks, reiterating his basic insight that what is important for a human being is to read the book of his own life, its various chapters and pages, rather than studying any ancient scriptures or modern philosophies.
