सोचने-विचारने से अपनी समस्याएं हल हो जाएंगी ऐसा मनुष्य का विश्वास रहा है, परंतु वास्तविकता यह है कि विचार पहले तो स्वयं समस्याएं पैदा करता है, और फिर अपनी ही पैदा की गई समस्याओं को हल करने में उलझ जाता है। एक बात और, विचार करना एक भौतिक प्रक्रिया है। कृष्णमूर्ति स्पष्ट करते हैं कि स्वतंत्रता का, मुक्ति का तात्पर्य है व्यक्ति के मस्तिष्क पर आरोपित इस 'नियोजन' से, इस 'प्रोग्राम' से मुक्त

जिसे हम प्रेम कहते-समझते हैं, क्या वह सच में प्रेम है? क्या अकेलेपन की वास्तविकता प्रकृति वही है जिसका अनुमान हमें डराता है और हम उससे दूर भागते रहते हैं, और इस कारण जीवन में कभी भी उस एहसास से हमारी सीधे-सीधे मुलाकात नहीं हो पाती? दैनिक जीवन के निकर्ष पर इन दो सर्वाधिक आवृत प्रतीतियों के अनावरण का सफर है: ‘प्रेम क्या है? अकेलापन क्या है?’ जे. कृष्णमूर्ति के शब्दों में अधिष्ठित निःशब्द से रहस्यों के धुँधलके सहज ही छँटते चलते हैं, और जीवन की उजास में उसकी स्पष्टता सुव्यक्त होती जाती है।

मृत्यु के बाद क्या होता है, इससे कहीं अधिक सार्थकता एवं प्रासंगिकता इस तथ्य की है कि मृत्यु से पहले के तमामा वर्ष हमने कैसे जिये हैं। मन-मस्तिष्क में समाये अतीत के समस्त संग्रहों, दुख-सुख के अनुभवों, घावों, आशाओं-निराशाओं और कुंठाओं के प्रति पूर्ण रूप से मरे बगैर हम जीवन को तभी ताज़ी-नूतन आँखों से नहीं देख सकते। मरना कोई दूर भविष्य में होने वाली डरावनी घटना न होकर इस क्षण होने वाली नवीनीकरण की प्रक्रिया है। जीवन और मृत्यु की विभाजक रेखा को ध्वस्त करती यह थीमबुक जे. कृष्णमूर्ति के अप्रीतम वचनों का एक अपूर्व संकलन है।
