Books Don't Make a Problem of Anything - Discussions With J. Krishnamurti by Krishnamurti (Author)

"Don't Make a Problem of Anything - Discussions with J. Krishnamurti" is a profound exploration of human problems and the nature of the mind’s problem-solving tendencies. Krishnamurti distinguishes between our conditioned "professional" mindset, trained from childhood to solve physical problems, and our true nature as "human beings." He argues that this professional problem-solving mentality is ineffectual when applied to psychological or emotional challenges, as it creates an endless cycle of problems without true resolution.

Krishnamurti emphasizes that the mind’s habit of regarding every situation or emotion as a problem to be solved blinds it to its role as the creator of problems. His central insight is to "not make a problem of anything in life," encouraging a radical shift in perception. Instead of reacting with problem-solving approaches to inner turmoil or life’s complexities, one should observe and understand these phenomena without judgment or resistance.

This teaching, originally addressed mostly to educators at the schools he founded, is applicable to everyone—from parents and spiritual seekers to psychologists and everyday individuals—providing a new way to live free from the constant burden of mental conflict.
