Why don't you change? by krishnamurti

You've heard all this, you as a human being. Why don't you change? What prevents you? If each one of us ask that question - not verbally, of nearly intellectually, as an entertainment - but ask the question most seriously and deeply, what's your answer? What's your answer to this problem, that human beings has lived this way for millennia upon millennia, why haven't they changed? Why haven't you, who are listening now, why haven't you changed? You know, if you don't change, once the consequences are, you'll be national, nationalistic, you'ld be tribal, insular, isolated, and therefor having no relationship globally...fighting, fighting, fighting. Building up more and more arms, to destroy each other. Now, why don't you, if you're all serious in this matter, why don't you ask yourself that question? Why am I, a human being, who have been through all this, why haven't I changed?: What would be your answer? Either you're not serious, you want to live a very, very superficial live, and that superficiality temporally satisfies you....or you really don't care? As there always will be immediate pleasures, immediate satisfactions, you really don't care. You don't care for your children if they're murdered, if you would really don't have no deep love and affection for them . If you had, you'ld prefent all wars. So apparently, none of these things mean anything to you? Or probably you're so deeply conditioned, psychological (of course we are biological conditioned, that is the full matter, all together) but psychological conditioned and one is not aware of it, and you ca... unless that, that there is freedom from that conditioning, you'll go on this way. After all, live is what? One global unity movement. So, in a same way our consciousness is commen to all mankind. Now, if I radically change, surely it effects the rest of the consciousness of men. Now, why don't you change?
