What are we seeking?
What is it that we are seeking? What is it that we are wanting, each one of us? Please this is a serious question, don't brush it aside as though this is easily answered, it is not. What is it that we want? Physical comfort? Physical security? Or, deep down there is a demand, or a desire to be totally secure in all our activities, in all our relationships, to be stable, certain, secure, permanent - is that what we are seeking? We cling to an experience and that gives us a certain quality of stability, a certain sense of identification which gives us a sense of permanency, well being. In that there is security. Right? In a belief there is security. Identification with a particular dogma, conclusion, nation, or an idea, gives it security. And that is why there are so many gurus springing up all over the world offering security: 'Follow me and you will know how to act, how to be secure.' Is that what you are seeking? Please go into it yourself, find out.

About KFI Bhubaneswar Study Centre
In 2019, KFICC opened another Study Centre-cum-library in the adjacent city of Bhubaneswar (KFI Bhubaneswar Study Centre). Some of the scheduled activities, there, include Krishnamurti dialogues, screening of Krishnamurti videos, and workshop sessions. On the whole, both the study centres of KFICC intend to create a viable environment for self-learning. The possibility of a new mind blossoms! KFICC’s motto is embedded in what J. Krishnamurti proclaimed about the purpose of creating a ‘Krishnamurti Study Centre’:
“This is not a place for romanticists or sentimentalists. This requires a good brain, which does not mean an intellectual but a brain that is objective, is fundamentally honest to itself, and has integrity in word and deed.”
(J. Krishnamurti, January, 1984)
