Last public talk (4 January 1986) http://www.jiddu-krishnamurti.net/en/the-future-is-now/1986-01-04-jiddu-krishnamurti-the-future-is-now-3rd-public-talk, The Future is Now : Last Talks in India (1988) http://www.jiddu-krishnamurti.net/en/the-future-is-now, p. 100 <br class="br">1980s <br class="br">Context: No description can ever describe the origin. The origin is nameless; the origin is absolutely quiet, it is not whirring about making noise. Creation is something that is most holy, that is the most sacred thing in life, and if you have made a mess of your life, change it. Change it today, not tomorrow. If you are uncertain, find out why and be certain. If your thinking is not straight, think straight, logically, Unless all that is prepared, all that is settled, you cannot enter into this world, into the world of creation.<br>It ends.<br>This is the last talk. Do you want to sit together quietly for a while? All right, sirs, sit quietly for a while.
