Living Now: Acceptance of Uncertainty as Freedom - J Krishnamurti's Quotes and Inspired Poem

J Krishnamurti's Quotes on Uncertainty

• The movement from certainty to uncertainty is what I call fear.

• When you live in a state of complete inward uncertainty, you will see that you meet any challenge with clarity and swiftness.

• The difficulty is we never want to be uncertain, we are afraid of losing everything. So the mind, being uncertain, pursues certainty; thereby it creates sorrow.

• One discovers what is true only when there is no certainty. Those who begin with certainty end up in uncertainty. Those who begin with uncertainty, questioning, asking, doubting, probing, those end up with absolute certainty.

Inspired Poem

Don't chase a safe feeling,

Like a bird in the sky.

It makes you keep reeling,

And just makes you sigh.

That safe is a cage,

You build with your fear.

Turning life's page,

With no one held dear.

Just be in the moment,

Let worries all fade.

True peace is inherent,

No longer afraid.
