Movement of Desire (6 Disc Set)
by Krishnamurti, Jiddu (9781888004977)

Six DVD set contains the complete series of public talks and 2 Q&A Meetings at Brockwood Park, 1978. around the central theme of desire. Krishnamurti explores this topic from multiple angles, disecting the limitations of thought and unraveling the mechination of this psycological engine in man. From the DVD: "So that is our question. If we are going to enquire together obviously the first step is to put aside all our personal prejudices, our personal desires, our petty problems of the moment, and so have the capacity to enquire freely and deeply. Capacity doesn't come through constant practice, psychologically we are talking about. It comes when there is direct interest and the challenge to which you must respond with all your highest capacity, then you have the capacity to enquire freely. Otherwise you will be merely playing with words. The words are important because they convey a certain meaning, but if words drive us, if words force us into certain conclusions, certain actions, then language, words control us, shape us, force us. That again is very clear, isn't it? Either language uses us, or we use language. But most of us are driven by language, use the word 'Communist' and you have all kinds of fearful ideas, not that the Communists are not fearful. And if you say "I am British", immediately certain reactions arise. So words, language drive us, shape us, shape our thinking, our behaviour, our action. In realizing that, the slavery to language, but if we know how to use language, the exact meaning of words, the content and the significance of the depth of the word, then we are using language unemotionally, unsentimentally, not identified with a particular word, then we can communicate with each other directly and very simply." 488 mins.
