When you call yourself an Indian or a Muslim or a Christian or a European, or anything else, you are being violent. Do you see why it is violent? Because you are separating yourself from the rest of mankind. When you separate yourself by belief, by nationality, by tradition, it breeds violence. So a man who is seeking to understand violence does not belong to any country, to any religion, to any political party or partial system; he is concerned with the total understanding of mankind.

J. Krishnamurti (1895–1986) was an Indian spiritual and philosophical teacher, speaker, and author. He followed no particular religion, philosophy, ideology, or spiritual tradition, but explored human consciousness, thought processes, belief systems, and quest for individual and collective freedom. His statement “truth is a pathless land” summarizes the heart of his teachings.
