Good morning everyone,

Here is today's quote:

Thought shattering itself against its own nothingness is the explosion of meditation.

Krishnamurti’s Notebook, p 166

Here is my reflection.

Thought constantly needs a reference point to survive. It needs to compare and work at all levels of generality. In and of itself, it is nothingness. Its singularity, outside the opposition of this and that, me and you, it is nothingness. Meditation is to observe this, and then in this moment the shattering of thought happens. Perhaps K is using the word explosion to refer to the total movement, the instant and complete change, the inner revolution, that happens with self-observation - thought observing itself?

Best wishes

Robert
