    Ivy Insights

    The Urgency of Change - The Krishnamurti Podcast is an exceptional podcast that curates and presents the most profound and transformative talks from K's teachings. I am extremely grateful to the creators of this podcast for their great work in bringing together such amazing content and making it accessible to listeners. This podcast has personally been hugely helpful to me, and I believe it has the potential to do the same for others if they listen attentively and understand the teachings.

    One of the best aspects of this podcast is the careful curation of talks on select topics. The available content from Krishnamurti is vast, so having these selections organized around specific themes is incredibly helpful. It creates a meditative experience for the listener, allowing them to dive deep into a particular aspect of K's teachings and contemplate it more profoundly.

    I must commend whoever is responsible for assembling these compilations at the KFT in Brockwood Park because they are doing an amazing and life-changing job. I have been listening to this podcast since its debut in 2019 and have not missed an episode. It is an effective way to learn and absorb Krishnamurti's teachings. The best part is knowing that there are even more recordings available, which means many more compilations will be produced. I especially appreciate when they include recordings that are not otherwise publicly available. Sharing Krishnamurti's wisdom, as well as featuring other influential thinkers like Byron Katie, is truly a noble service, and I am filled with gratitude for this podcast.

    Listening to enough Krishnamurti talks can potentially bring about a significant transformation in one's life by freeing them from the incessant thoughts that plague many people. It offers a path towards living guided by networked intelligence rather than being trapped in thought patterns. Through deep listening and understanding, one can move beyond mere intellectual comprehension and experience something far deeper.

    Krishnamurti's teaching has personally changed my life for the better, and I am genuinely grateful to have come across it. This podcast provides a perspective on almost every aspect of life, revealing how fear, anxiety, and sadness are nothing but projections of our own thoughts. It is a remarkable resource that offers insights into the fundamental questions of human existence.

    The organization and presentation of this podcast are impeccable. The way segments are organized around specific words in this season is particularly well done. It allows for a cohesive listening experience that enhances understanding and contemplation.

    In conclusion, The Urgency of Change - The Krishnamurti Podcast is truly a gift to the world and humanity as a whole. By making Krishnamurti's thought, writings, teachings, talks, and conversations accessible to the public, this podcast offers an invaluable opportunity for self-reflection and growth. Krishnamurti was arguably the most radical thinker of the 20th century when it comes to human consciousness and the entirety of human life. To have his teachings available in such a comprehensive manner is a precious endeavor, and I express my deepest gratitude to everyone involved in bringing this podcast into existence.
