Krishnamurti - Be a light unto oneself …
So all this brings us to a certain point, which is: that one must be a complete light to oneself. As we are not light unto ourselves, we rely on others. As you are listening, you are relying on the speaker to tell you what to do. But if you listen very carefully, the speaker is not telling you what to do; he is asking you to examine, he is telling you how to examine and what is implied in the examination. By examining very carefully, you are free of all dependence and you are a light to yourself. That means you are completely alone.”
